    Listen to this speech! A man who believed in our democracy. I disagreed with him on most subjects (esp Palin & her attack stance) but he was someone I admired for his military service & for his integrity. I miss his civility now.

      John McCain was a guest on Jay Leno‘s tonight show (for my friends across the ocean… This is a very very very very popular show at the time… A late night talk show) as the first guest when the show resumed filming after 911… And as he was talking about or rather about to talk about the terrorist… He went into this long patriotic rant about How we are all a part of the same family/country and that he very strongly warned against any Islam a phobia before he even started talking about the realities of the group who is behind the attacks… And at that time I very much deeply appreciated and was grateful for someone who I didn’t agree with a lot of political issues… To still make a stand that the people behind the attacks do not represent the peaceful religion

      ​@@Lilo-ABush brought him down mainly. After 8 years of W, the country wanted him and anyone like him out. It didn't matter who the (R) was or the (D) was, the (R) was gonna lose and lose big. Also didn't help that McCain sided with Bush 95% of the time. He was done from the start.

    I am from AZ. I didn't vote for him or agree with his politics, but damn did I respect him. He spoke at my school and was so intelligent and genuine. Like if he had won, I honestly wouldn't have been disappointed. He genuinely cared and was a hero. One of the few things I'm proud of az for lol.
    Trump talked crap about my boy. Can't believe anyone from az could vote for that dumpster fire of a person.

    When he died the Republican party died with him. This is when our country had class and didn't sit destructed by our indifferences but rather united over our similarities. Trump came in and the party is now a major MESS.
