Obama and McCain Quotes

Obama - In the end, then, what is called for is nothing more, and nothing less, than what all the world’s great religions demand—that we do unto others as we would have them do unto us. Let us be our brother’s keeper, Scripture tells us. Let us be our sister’s keeper. Let us find that common stake we all have in one another, and let our politics reflect that spirit as well.
McCain - I'm older than dirt, I've got more scars than Frankenstein, but I've learned a few things along the way.
President Obama - Speaking via video, President Obama spoke about how he had been inspired by Nelson Mandela and how it was time for people to take up the challenges the world still faces. "This," Obama said, "is the greatest gift that we can give this great man."McCain Urges Jack Johnson Pardon - Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) sent a letter to President Barack Obama in support of the posthumous pardoning of boxer Jack Johnson. In 1913, Johnson was jailed and convicted of violating the Mann Act—a federal law prohibiting the transportation of women across state lines to participate in prostitution or immoral behavior. Johnson often traveled with his wife, who was White. To escape prison, Johnson moved to Europe but later returned and served 10 years in federal custody.
