Someone should be asking/answering these questions

Would someone explain to me how being a prisoner of war in Vietnam makes you fit to be president of the US? 

Would someone explain how a life spent thinking in military terms, whether as a child in a military family, a member of the military, or in Congress, makes you fit to deal with the whole spectrum of issues a president has to face? 

Would someone explicitly state how John McCain has served his country above himself over all these years?

It can't be explained any better than Wesley Clarke:

He said it all.

Hear, hear! I just watched it after your recommendation and I really wish to God that he was going to be our VP. Smart man, not easy ruffled and has much better military credentials than McCain.

Well, he can't win on the issues, can't win on character, can't even win on religion, so he has to work his ass off for that sympathy vote.

Noun. Verb. POW!!
