I know we all want the same thing. A clean election. I'm not a supporter of McCain but I don't think he's a bad person. Not worse than your average politician at any rate. It's upsetting to me that people would claim he's a war criminal. He served in Viet Nam, he was a POW for five years, for Christ's sake. He went through a lot of shit. Then the claim that he's not eligible to run because he was born in Panama, on a Navy base, because his father was serving...so this somehow makes him less American? Whether he would be a good president can be easily debated, but the man's a patriot. Obama is not an American hating Muslim and McCain is not a war criminal. Let's look at the real issues rather than just making shit up. It hard enough as it is to wade through all the "image" bullshit. Clouding the issues helps no one.
