For one thing, I don't think that anybody in any war thinks of themselves as a hero.

John Kerry wants to be the hero in his own drama. He likes King Arthur and the Round Table. He likes the young swashbuckling Churchill, and he loved the early antics of Theodore Roosevelt.

I see our veterans as American heroes, not as cartoon characters.

I'm not a hero. The military is.

I thought that Donald Trump's ascendancy would end when he attacked John McCain, saying he's not a war hero. I found that shocking, for him to say that.

I don't believe there are heroes or saviours in politics.

John Kerry can be absolutely ruthless. I would not want to be on his enemies list when he's ready to go after you.

Richard Kerry not only was a pilot in World War II, but was a civil servant. He did not come from money.

Genius, scholar, and war hero though he is, you have to admit - or maybe you should think about admitting - that George Bush might have rushed things a little in invading Iraq.
