Granted McCain was a POW. What McCain did as a POW was a violation of the UCMJ. If he had been an enlisted man and not the son/grandson of admirals, he wouldn't have gotten the good press he did and he wouldn't have gotten a "free walk" on aiding and abetting the enemy. Just read the history about McCain. Read the Code of Conduct. It should have applied to him. That's why I would never vote for the guy, even if he's the only name on the ticket.
