And that's just the tip of the iceberg: has he forgotten what his comrades-in-arms have endured when he votes AGAINST proposed V.A. benefit upgrades for vets, calling the bills "too generous"? that he was tortured himself, then caved in to Dubya and OKAYED water-boarding (opening the door for OUR captured soldiers to be subjected to that inhumane practice)? The list goes on and on, but it makes me wonder how stable/functional he really is.
Frankly, I'd have the same concern if he were a Democrat, so 'party' doesn't enter this consideration. I'm a Vietnam vet, too. I cannot even begin to fathom the depth of the horror that he was subjected to as a POW. But being a POW doesn't entitle anyone to be a President --otherwise, there are hundreds of possible candidates at Guantanamo... If --IF-- he claims special treatment and/or qualification for Prez solely due to being a POW, to me that is one more reason to question his stability, judgment and values.
