is that it seems he didn't care about the Vietnam war issue one way or the other. He didn't fight OR protest while Kerry did BOTH.
Look, I don't disagree with dodging/avoiding a war one has a principaled position against. Clinton dodged Vietnam, but protested against it. He was out there with a belief and actions to back that up.
Sure, people like Gore and Kerry were also born into wealth, but they worked hard to prove themselves. They showed every step of the way that they were "about something". I just don't get that feeling with Dean.
The way I see it, personality-wise, Dean has a lot in common with W. Both had that "whatever dude" mentality, finally woke up one day and decided to "take the place owed to them".
