(Cut and Paste seems not to work)
When Kerry ran for President, Max Cleland supported him strongly. In one of the books about that election, it told how Cleland lent Kerry a small Bible of his to carry with him as he ran. The bond and friendship between them was obvious.

(89,252 posts)15. Max Cleland gave the best speech in support of Kerry at the convention
i'm not talking about speeches in general. Obama was clearly the best .
But I mean the person that knows him and said why they support Kerry and others should.
I heard that the swift boat trash liars refused to appear on show if they had to debate Cleland. So the shit media allowed them to come on by themselves and spew their bs .
Cleland was such an amazing person. I hope a movie is made about him one day . What happened to him and what he ended up doing in his life would inspire many people.
