      Very true. It's a shame the sort of people that follow him. But you have to realize those idiots are the heart of the ********** party. Even though McCain isn't a bad guy, he had to appeal to them in an attempt to win the election. The real John McCain is the one before the presidential race began. Not that right wing hack that we saw on the campaign trail for months.

      If anyone is interested, look up John McCain and boxing, he cares a lot about it.
      i love the fact that someone wants to el the sport. But man like i said, as a black man, i can't back someone who appeals to a racist crowd. I understand that sometime, you have to do what you have to do, but thats huge man....... especially when you are running against a black man....

            You both make good points.

            1. McCain is a good man with good intentions
            2. A good number of his followers are the cultural scum of America

He's hoping ***** does the right thing and pardons this historic figure.
              About time, why hasn't anybody else try to take that nasty **** stain off this country's history?

              Did you know, it was illegal to marry a person of a different race until 1978?

                  I'm white and I voted for *****. I wouldn't have advised anyone to vote for McCain even if he promised one champion per division.
