Just a reminder that Republican vs Democrat doesn't ultimately matter. I think McCain embodied that belief through his long years of service to the USA, his willingness to reach across the aisle and through his values and ideals (integrity, respect, honesty) from which he did not waver.
- lisper 8y ago> Republican vs Democrat doesn't ultimately matter It shouldn't matter. But unfortunately, all too often, it does.

- DoofusOfDeath 8y agoCould you explain your opening statement a little? The way I'm interpreting it implies that the platform differences between those parties isn't really important in any way.
- anonu 8y agoI mean a few things. For the most part I'm being a bit fatalist: we are all going to die and we are all going to end up in the same place. So the journey through our lives should be one where we embrace other people's differences instead of rail against them. McCain, to me, seemed to embody values that showed a willingness to work with people who shared different views. He put his nation before himself. That's partly what I was alluding to..
- sidlls 8y agoThe platforms don't make any difference. What matters is whether the political leaders follow them, and for Dems at least they mostly just act like Republicans but are really sorry about it.
