Kerry: a character for treason

John Kerry: traitor then; traitor now

Part A. Introduction

Imagine General Benedict Arnold declaring himself a "war hero" in 1810 and returning to the United States (formerly colonies) to run for President of the United States. What kind of reception would he get? The equivalent is happening today in 2004.

Loyal Americans think twice about violating the legal provision against negotiating with foreign powers (18 U.S.C. 953) and the Constitutional prohibition against giving support to our nation's enemies during wartime (Article III, Section 3). Patriotic Americans do not openly support proposals that amount to an American surrender to enemies in time of war. (A-1) These considerations apparently carry no weight with John Kerry.

Completely unashamed of his anti-American foreign policy sentiments, Kerry never attempts to deny them, but rather freely admits his willingness to hand over control of America's military to other countries and the U.N. As stated in the Harvard Crimson, "Kerry said that the United Nations should have control over most of our foreign military operations." What Kerry seems less proud to say is that he's an American. Rather, as he proclaimed on February 13, 1970, "I'm an internationalist. I'd like to see our troops dispersed through the world only at the directive of the United Nations." (A-2)

If there is one thing about Kerry's attitude that is consistent, it is that he consistently sides with the enemies of the United States. He proved this during (1) the Vietnam War (1970-1971); (2) the War against Communism in Nicaragua (1985) ; (3) the anti-American activities of Red China (1996); and now (4) the War against Terror (2003-2004). As will be seen, in each case, Kerry's pattern has been to first secretly meet with the enemy and then carefully coordinate his own efforts with that of the enemy, both at home and abroad. This he did with (1) the communist North Vietnamese government and the Viet Cong; (2) the communist Sandanista regime in Nicaragua; (3) the Red Chinese government; and now (4) the terrorist Iranian government. In all cases, the goal has been America's defeat.

It is no wonder that Kerry's campaign for the presidency is endorsed by the Communist Party of the United States. (A-3) Significantly, the reasons for the defeat of President Bush listed by the Communist Party (A-4), closely resemble those used by the Kerry campaign (A-5). According to St. Augustine newspaper columnist D.P. Heimbold, Kerry's campaign theme, "Let America Be America Again," was borrowed from the title of a poem by Communist poet Langston Hughes. (A-6)
