The slogan was not "Ho Ho Ho Chi Min, the Viet Cong is gonna win" it was "Ho Ho, Ho Chi Min, the NLF is gonna win".

What is the exact date of the Bryant Park rally? Based on the coats Lennon and Kerry are wearing summer seems too broad a time period, and also unlikely.

Short, poorly laid out article

For such a large and interesting subject this article is very poorly laid out. The "protests" section is laughably small and contains some very unimportant protests while leaving out important ones. A good timeline would be a godsend. Someone more knowledgeable than myself should add to this. --User:Anonymous 5:57, 5 May 2006

Kerry's inclusion among those who evaded service

Kerry served in the Vietnam War. He signed up and was not drafted. He won three purple hearts. His heroism was controversially challenged by the "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" in the 2004 presidential campaign, but whatever one's opinion of how much he "deserved" his Purple Hearts, the above facts are indisputable. His inclusion with these draft dodgers is misinformation, pure and simple.
