Dan Quayle, George H.W. Bush's Vice President, was in the Indiana National Guard from 1969 to 1975. This was an issue for him during the 1988 campaign when his critics accused him of guarding the Indy 500 from an attack by the Viet Cong.
Quayle also made a number of idiotic quotes as Vice President and after, nearly equaling in stupidity those of George W. Bush.
