I really love this photograph. It was taken during an interview with John McCain after he was released from captivity in Vietnam. Some people don't know this but his hair actually turned white from his experience as a POW. Before I knew anything about him, I always identified McCain by his white hair like it was his trademark. Now I look at it as a symbol of his bravery and perseverance. He endured more pain and suffering than most will see in a lifetime simply to protect his fellow soldiers and defend the cause that brought him to Vietnam in the first place. Republican or Democrat, you have to be inspired by that.
