3. Because he was not PRESENT.
He also did not shoot President Lincoln.

Nor did he risk his life to desegregate a lunch counter.

Your argument is specious but DO continue to cling to it.

8. Same could be said for your idol Hillary....
Hillary never risked her life to desegregate a lunch counter. She was too busy being a Young Republican during that time....

6. He went to an anti-war rally and gave a speech? Oh, sorry, he was going in the opposite direction.

9. no power?
Is power really necessary?

Why hasn't he led day and night campaigns to end the the war? That could be in his power.

He's good buddies with Oprah, why hasn't he enlisted her in using her show to speak out on the war to end it? (instead of giving away crap to her audience members)

Has he organized marches in the streets?

10. No. He is clearly not against the war. He needs to stop claiming that he is.
