Purple hearts and Medals do not make a person presidential material. Audi
Murphy was the most decorated soldier in WWII. Did not have a high school
education. My uncle spent 4.5 years in the South Pacific as a shooter in
WW
II. 5 purple hearts that he even picked up. Bronze star with Oak leaf
clusters. Great guy, but would not have made a good political leader.
There were smart guys and not so smart guys getting shot in all the wars.
Friend was a medic and then a pilot in Viet Nam. Shot down a couple of
times, captured and escaped one time. Ph.D. degree now. John McCain was
a
pilot also, did not escape and does not have a Ph.D.. Does not that make
him ineligible for office under your criteria?

I didn't establish any criteria...

The reason the info on Kerry was posted was in response to the part time
math teacher's assertion that none of the dems in the race had any balls.

Was the part-time math teacher positing that Bush had balls? His father
did, but Dubya? He's just a frat boy.
