business office to ask him about his class
? on Viettiam issues, his plans and his post-
Jfj excerpts from that conversation with Ker-
1 V rfU- a mcm whom a free-lance writer recent
ly picked as a dark, dark horse candidate
for president in 1988. The ufriter, Eric
Al terman, described Kerrey im American
. Politics magazine as a war hero with a
' past-Vietnam sensibility who g ot to bring
V '.Debra Winger home for a while without
catching hell from the people of Nebraska. "
. . . Kerrey speaks for himself:
.What made you decide to go to Santa
Barbaxa to teach?
'I wanted to take some time off in between
what I call real work and being governor. . . I'd
out two years ago and last year to speak to this class on
k Vietnam, l m interested in tne subject itseii ana i wanted
to do some reading and writing on it so he said yes.
Do you enjoy your work out there?
I enjoy teaching period. I like the task of
not just the teaching, but the work of
learning the subject prior to and getting
others to learn it too.
Do you think you'll ever teach at UNL?
I haven't really talked to UNL about it, but it's not out
of the realm of possibilities.
Can you describe to me what you talk about in your
; lectures?
This class is a part of the department of religious studies. What

I have done is broken it down into
the culture of Vietnam and the
religions of. the people. I try to
give mystudehtssome understand
ing and myself some sort of under
standing of the people of Vietnam,
Laos and Cambodia.
The second area is the colonial
history. . . the history of France
and what a colony is. I didn't
understand and I still don't com
pletely understand what a colony
is, what it means to the people
who are the dominant nation
and the objective nation, and I
think it's very important for us to
understand that.
The third area is. the area of
conflict and the period of conflict,
which goes, in myjudgment, back
to 1950 or actually I drift all the
way back to 1945 when Ho Chi
Minn began fighting against the
French. . . in the French-Indo-chinese
war, later taken over by
the United States, and run all the
way through 1975. . . when South
Vietnam fell to North Vietnam.
The fourth area. . ;is the impact
of that war upon this country
and what it's done to us.
Do you think we have the
wrong perception of Vietnam?
I don't think there is one per
ception, I mean I think we do lots
of things right and lots of things
wrong. One of the things we do
that we al have the mistake of
doing, and I speak for this coun
try, not for other countries, is
that we don't look back as much
as we ought to. We're always at an
attitude of looking ahead, today's
problems, tomorrow's opportun
ities. The great political speech:
'Let's chart a new course.' Every
one's talking about it. Well, I think
it is very important to plan and
lay a map out of where you're
going to go and to think about
today and not to wallow in guilt
about stuff that you've done
historically, but to proceed with
out looking back and not under
standing the past. . . to get a
connection with the past is im
portant because that's who you
are and, that's what you've done
. . . It's very difficult to proceed
into the future as an individual, I
think, and as a nation, unless you
understand the past. Feel the
remorse for the things youVe done
wrong. I think we should not first
and foremost feel guilt about how
we treated our veterans, we
should feel remorse for what
occurred during the period of
time. Real honest remorse. Re
morse that provides the positive
basis to do things in the future.
And you can't feel remorse if
you're ignored, if you don't look
back We ought to feel remorse
for the Civil War ... we ought to
feel remorse for the Revolutinary
War we ought to feel remorse
for lots of things that we've done.
We ought to also understand
that it's human beings in the
battle making decisions. You can
hate Truman if you want to, you
can hate Eisenhower, you can
hate John Kennedy and Nixon
