Synopsis

Sen. John Kerry's 2004 presidential bid became the catalyst for an unprecedented political movement by Vietnam veterans who had long resented his false 1971 testimony that U.S. troops were routinely committing war crimes. Despite the best efforts of the Democratic Party and its media affiliates, they succeeded in reaching out to the public and turning the presidential campaign upside down.Here, for the first time, is the complete story of how they did it - and why.* Foreword by John E. O'Neill, lead spokesman for the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth *
