On the other hand, Algore knew that part really well!
Kerry had the resources and presumably the intelligence to go seek other sources. Instead he bought into Bobby Muller's nonsense, probably because the guy is tied down to a wheelchair.
On an issue this serious, you sometimes have to say to yourself "gee, the guy in the wheelchair could be right, but what if he has a secret agenda". Kerry didn't. He's one of those guys who makes the worst sort of boss ~ you know the one ~ last person he talked to had God's own truth!
I don't think Muller had anything to do with that. According to Nicosia's "Home to War", Muller kept his distance from the protests those days.
