John McCain

John McCain

We need to know how, we need to know why, and most of all we need to know what to do to prevent this kind of activity, which they continue to carry on in free nations around the world.
John McCain
I don't doubt the sincerity of my Democratic friends. And they should not doubt ours.
John McCain
Nothing in life is more liberating than to fight for a cause larger than yourself, something that encompasses you but is not defined by your existence alone.
John McCain
