John McCain dies at 81

           John McCain has died at 81 and I find it a tragedy, he was a presidential candidate, a war hero pilot, and a senator. He fought as a pilot in the Vietnam war and was shot down and as he crashed he broke his arms and shattered his leg, he was then taken captive by the Vietnamese and tortured for five years, and by the time he came back he couldn’t even lift his hands over his head. He then decided to serve the public as a member of the House of Representatives for Arizona. I do not personally agree with everyone of John McCain’s political stances but he was one of the most stand up politicians around, we will miss him greatly.

  1. It is a pity to see such an important figure leave our government. However, can you elaborate on how you don’t personally agree with his political stances specifically?
