For those who are undecided at the present time as to who they will vote for, and also to the supporters of Obama, I encourage you to get a copy of McCain's book, "Faith of My Fathers."
With the world in turmoil as it is, just pulling out of Iraq isn't going to end it. This country needs a president who has military experience and a background that shows he can handle extreme pressure and stress.
Read this book and find out what this man went through in a Vietnamese prisoner-of-war camp. Not all U.S. prisoners survived, but McCain did, despite the five years of solitary confinement, torture, starvation, beatings, etc.
Here is a man who could have been released much earlier but refused repatriation. Read the book and find out why. There are many reasons McCain is far more qualified to be president than Obama ever could be.
Even if it doesn't change your mind, read the book and find out what a human being can endure if he has the "right stuff."
