Kerry realized that he didn't have an anthills' worth of accomplishments
in 20
years of being a US Senator plus being a state lieutenant governor etc.
The
only thing he could come up with was to play up his four (4) months in
Vietnam.

I don't claim to know what motivated Kerry to decide to do it 'cause I
wasn't in his campaign headquarters, either.
