To the person that said we are better with McCain, instead of Obama or Clinton. If you had been going through the nightmare, I have been going through, you would not say that. I am a Repulican, but these soldiers coming back from Iraq and other placee, need a president that will support them and us that are already vets. I have heard from my supervisor that some soldiers have commited sucide, beacuse the were not getting care from the VA.

We vets and returning soldiers deserve better.
