John Roberts on War & Peace

Supreme Court Justice (nominated by Pres. George W. Bush 2005)


As student during Vietnam, disturbed by anti-war protests

Friends say the roots of Roberts' conservatism can be traced to his days as a Harvard undergraduate, toward the end of the Vietnam War. Seeing fellow students demonstrate in sympathy with Ho Chi Minh, one said, did not sit well with Roberts, who grew up in Indiana.
