Basically, you're blaming Kerry for a lot of things that 
happened BEFORE he came home from Nam. You're blaming him for 
the business executives who wouldn't hire vets and the chicks
who wouldn't lay you.

News flash, kid: folks were against the war long before
the VVAW came along. Huge areas of the media supported
the war for years, and put the demonstrators in the worst
light possible (go to a good university library, dummy,
and dig through the microfilmed newspapers and the archived
magazines.) But don't ask "Buzz" O'Reilly about the
truth. He was in college IN ENGLAND, down the road from the
oh-so-hated Bill Clinton, on his own deferment. And when
he came home he got another deferment, to teach high school.

Damned few hippys ran the employment desk at any business.
It wasn't the hippy chicks who kept their legs crossed.
A lot of hippys weren't old enough to vote.  But it WAS a 
lot of middle-aged married couples who objected to having 
their boys come home in boxes, or in pieces, for no good 
reason. And you can't retrofit that war with a good 
reason. We heard none at the time. Or maybe you can pop into
your Time Machine and explain it to folks back then?

Lou P. Garrew, at your service!
