actually, obama didn't fill out the race portion of his application to
Harvard. So he got in based on his qualifications alone. Unlike
McCain...

Who not only didn't get into Havard, but finished 5th from last at the Naval
Academy.

And unlike Obama we know this. Notice that with McCain they find
people going back to grade school who talk freely about him, people
know where he has stood since he was a kid. With Obama his career
seems to start when he got elected Senator and started running for
President. So does his whole biography. We hear "Community Organizer."
OK. Organizing a community for what? Working with who? To what ends?
These things are not covered. The Democratic party papers that all
over and the media seems fine with it. Never mind his law career
working for Franklin Raines, of Fannie Mae mismanagement infamy (also
someone Obama had on his campaign as an adviser) and never mind other
people who he may have worked with. never mind the goals they were
"organizing" for.

John Kerry, Al Gore, John McCain, Hillary Clinton, George W. Bush,
they all had pretty full biographies. Some things you might like about
them and some things no, but you knew where they stood. Obama's is
papered over in favor of pastel posters and images crafted from whole
cloth.

As for the USNA I doubt McCain wanted to go anyplace else, and most of
his leadership and service came after.
