Through his passing, if America cannot comprehend the words in the African proverb: “If there no enemy within, the enemy outside can not hurt you,” #JohnMcCain We will miss a chance of a lifetime.
Is it not enough in a culture of reliance that a man means well in the service of his country? Is it not enough that a man can admit his imperfectness yet sustains his character with his conscience, haranguing against every design prejudicial to the best interest of his country.
A toxic but harmless character can be formed around a personality of non-apologetic inculpation, which falls short upon the ears and minds of separatist people, who, on the surface, pretend to befriend him. The oath of office/service demands and requires that what is right should not only be made known but made prevalently; that what is evil should not only be detected but defeated. In the words of Edmund Burke, an Anglo-Irish Philosophy and Statesman: “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”― #johnmccain
