John McCain’s military service was both honorable and heroic. But let’s not confuse that with experience relevant to being president of the United States.
John McCain was a naval aviator, an important and demanding job. But a naval aviator is not like Patton or Eisenhower.
It would be truly dangerous if McCain really considers himself a military expert, who can therefore ignore the advice of real military experts as president of the United States.
A man like McCain, with a history of being headstrong and shooting from the hip, is the last thing we need as president, in an age of complex global threats, including terrorists who may get nuclear weapons within the next few years.
