Bernie Sanders In the Northeast Kingdom

During his stop, Bernie Sanders explained his decision to seek conscientious objector status in the 1960s instead of go to Vietnam.

To me, knowing something about the hard way conscientious objectors have to tread, I find this far more honest than Dick Cheney with all his selective service extensions followed by a quick roll in the hay with Lynne (but damn, they produced a fine Republican lesbian daughter who has zero problems accepting sweet government contracts).
