Democratic presidential candidate Gov. Bill Clinton spoke on his draft record to the national convention of the American Legion a few hours after President George H. W. Bush had addressed the same convention. In his remarks, he spoke on the lessons he learned from the American Legion program Boy’s State and American Legion Boy’s Nations had on his conduct and opposition to the Vietnam War as a young man. He distinguished his opposition to the Vietnam War from his support for the soldiers fighting in the war and noted a number of presidents who had not served in the U.S. military but were capable leaders in wartime. close
