Yea, how did you know that I'm a white-ass, jive turkey for McCain. If they had middle age white rappers, I'd be 'a rappin' for that real Dude with Integrity - deserves capitals and some trumpet horns in the background- you will have to imagine the horns.

I've talked with McCain once and talked to his staffers a few times several months ago when he was working on the cockpit security and other HomeLand security related laws. I sent them my arguments for why they should require bullet-proof reinforced cockpit (also called the 'crew compartment' or 'crew cabin') entry doors that could only be unlocked from inside the crew cabin under normal circumstances. They took my arguments and melded them into their own. I cannot claim any sort of originality and they were already well up to speed and tuned in to the issues and technicalities, although I do like to think that I helped confirm and probably introduce a few small ideas into the mix. Anyway, I came away from the experience in awe of his team and his own handling of the situation: McCain did about the opposite of what I've come to expect out of politicians - he gave the credit mostly to other Senators and house members for his staff's and his own work. You don't find humility and service to duty like that every day.

Kick out the Bushman and put in McCain!!! We would have prosperity by now if McCain had been made President.
