I would not plan to base my campaign primarily on opposition to the war in the Persian Gulf.

We had 110 reenlistments while we were in the Persian Gulf and awarded more than $777,000 of selective reenlistment bonuses.

They know they are inferior to the U.S. Navy in the Persian Gulf, so this is their way of telling Americans .... we are not the only ones who would lose out if talks regarding the nuclear program fail.

We've made some mistakes in this country in times past - the Korean conflict proceeding that, some say proceeding the Persian Gulf War, where we were ambiguous as to what we would do.

The Establishment center... has led us into the stupidest and cruelest war in all history. That war is a moral and political disaster - a terrible cancer eating away at the soul of our nation.

I did frequently refer to my war record in World War II, but not in any flamboyant way.
