My deepest sympathies and respect go out to the family of Senator John McCain. Our hearts and prayers are with you!

Barack Obama @BarackObama

Excerpt from “Our Statement on the Passing of Senator John McCain”: Few of us have been tested the way John once was, or required to show the kind of courage that he did. But all of us can aspire to the courage to put the greater good above our own. At John’s best, he showed us what that means. And for that, we are all in his debt. Michelle and I send our most heartfelt condolences to Cindy and their family.
