"Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them-a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have the skill, and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill."

He took a principled and public stand against an immoral war, and suffered the consequences.
He didn't flee the country, or change his name and hide out in the woods, he didn't get his rich connected Daddy to get him a posting in a National Guard unit, (Bush) , he didn't use his families wealth to continually stay in school until the war was over or he had aged out, ( Cheney, Clinton), and he didn't fake a medical deferrment, ( Trump).
And with an IQ of only 78, he turned out to be smarter, more moral and more prescient than both Political Parties, the entire Pentagon, 4 Administrations, every major US Think Tank and Media Service, and 178 million other Americans.
