thinkprogress.org — Wesley Clark argued that ?getting shot down is [not] a qualification to be President.? The McCain campaign issued a statement condemning Clark?s remarks. But during an interview with National Journal in 2003, John McCain said that he 'absolutely don't believe' that military service was necessary for the presidency, echoing Clarks comments.

He was right in 2003, but if he doesn?t stand by that assertion now (not sure has he commented on it specifically yet?) he is a f**king flip-flopping idiot. That?s so blatant; I don?t see how someone could give him a pass.

McCain's military experience is and always will be a valid item to put on the list of why he is qualified to be president. Does it mean it alone automatically makes him qualified to be president? Absolutely not. Does one have to have military experience to be president? Absolutely not (Which is what McCain was saying, sorry no flip-flop in saying that). Can it be an item on a list of which to say I am more qualified to be president than you? Yes!McCain stayed a POW longer than he had to, they were going to let his ass go, and he said hell no, send those who came here before me home first. So they kept him, and not just for months because of that decision but years. Is that a valid item to put on a list of which to say I am more qualified to be president than you? Damn Straight!

How many times did McCain vote against the MLK holiday?Does McCain want to be President of ALL of the United States or just "part" of it?

Actually I did but not for that reason. Voting for McCain this time since I trust Obama less.

Yes you can hold me to that....the bickering is making me not want to vote....which is crazy because not voting when you have the chance to vote IMO is one of the dumbest things anyone can do.

Don't get me wrong, I hate John McCain. I am just saying he is a high ranking senator, therefore distinguished while Obama has spent about 15 minutes in federal government.Let's go after him, not his military service or experience.
