I agree. I also like the part when he said that has never been a time where he has been proud of being from AMerica. That was definetly a good slam, if you will. Good for him!
Ohhhh, caught my mistake. There has never been a time where he has not been proud of being an American.......
It was not a slam, and he did deliver the best political speech of this campaign season.
When I say it was not a slam, it is because those of us who were born in the 1930s were not at all confused about who we were, or how fortunate we were to have been born in this country. Like Senator McCain, I wore the uniform proudly, but unlike him, I didn't suffer. My worst injury was a broken leg.
I've had a lot of disappointment with some of his decisions, and he has not been my first choice for the nomination, but now that he is, I can support him whole heartedly. A president must lead an entire country, not just those who presume to have all the answers, and idealogical purity. My Commander's in Chief included Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, and Johnson. To the military man or woman, it makes no difference. What matters to them is the mission
