Has anyone ever seen the episode of "Biography" A&E did on JK, either during or right after the 2004 election? I got a copy of it just recently (for my birthday--big thanks to both my aunt and Amazon.com! hehe :)). Had to get it on VHS because it is not available on DVD for some reason. Anyway, it is awesome! A really fair look at his life and record and packed with so much rare footage too! I am so glad I got it!
Has anyone else here seen this or remember it? I will try to look sometime soon to see if it's on Youtube or anywhere else online to post here. It's just that good! :)

I have thought - and posted that only Frontline (PBS) did a Kerry bio - and it was a joint one with W - tracking them through the years (which was hard for them as one guy had no real accomplishments until about 40.) The three networks always had puff biographies before the conventions every 4 years - they even had one for W. None of them did one for Kerry, though his history provided ample material - as unedited, it sounds like a background that would lead to be not just a President, but a great one.
MSNBC had a special that just dealt with his protesting, which while it is something that was immensely impressive, is the most controversial part of his biography. I think CNN had a history too, but it was NOT a puff piece.
You saying the A&E one is "fair", likely means we will all like it.
