New Doubts About Bush's Guard Service

The White House released documents Tuesday it says confirm President Bush fulfilled his Air National Guard duties during the Vietnam War era. Democrats have recently revived charges that Bush abandoned his Guard post. But many say the new documents are incomplete, and some question why the White House can't produce anyone who remembers serving with Bush. Hear NPR's Don Gonyea.

You're most likely to find NPR's Don Gonyea on the road, in some battleground state looking for voters to sit with him at the local lunch spot, the VFW or union hall, at a campaign rally, or at their kitchen tables to tell him what's on their minds. Through countless such conversations over the course of the year, he gets a ground-level view of American elections. Gonyea is NPR's National Political Correspondent, a position he has held since 2010. His reports can be heard on all NPR News programs and at NPR.org. To hear his sound-rich stories is akin to riding in the passenger seat of his rental car, traveling through Iowa or South Carolina or Michigan or wherever, right along with him.
