Donald Rumsfeld - The Face of the War

Rumsfeld began his political life fairly young, in the sixties, as a congressman from illinois. He was also actually pressing tond the vietnom war because he thought it was a loser. Ironically, nixon kicking him out meant that he was completely shielded from the effects of water gate. Rumsfeld re enters the picture in two thousand as george w. Bushis pick for secretary of defense.
