answer:

senator john mccain

john mccain served in the us army and fought in vietnam where he was tortured & was prisoner of war from 1967 to 1973 (6 years). then after serving his country (making him a vietnam war veteran), he became a six-term u.s. senator from the state of arizona. then he ran for priesident & was the republican nominee for the 2008 presidential election. he ended up losing to preisident barack obama. going on to still serve in congress for a few more terms, he was an honorable man who had the courage to fight for his country. for the rights of millions. for free heathcare. for american values & traditions. his life tragally ended after his battle with brain cancer. he died in his home on august 25, 2018.

may his memory, be a blessing.
