Are you frickin kidding me? That is such an assanine statement. This guy paid about as a high a price as any soldier can pay for this country. He actually stayed in Hanoi an extra three years instead of accepting an early out because of who his Dad was. All this to keep faith with his fellow POW's. Do your homework. The fire on the Forrestal was in no way his fault.
How can a President be "anti-pilot". Do you believe this is an actual campaign platform?
Everything you said is 100% true.
None of what you said makes him a good politician, ditchdigger, gynecologist, etc. He's a war hero. He has made many, many anti-pilot public comments. He has introduced anti-labor legislation during his tenure. These are facts.
Just because he was a POW with honor does not in and of itself qualify him to do any other job. The real irony is that the only thing he's really been professionally trained to do is fly airplanes.
