John Sidney McCain III (born August 29, 1936) is the senior United States Senator from Arizona. He was the Republican presidential nominee in the 2008 United States election.
McCain followed his father and grandfather, both four-star admirals, into the United States Navy, graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1958. He became a naval aviator, flying ground-attack aircraft from aircraft carriers. During the Vietnam War, he was almost killed in the 1967 USS Forrestal fire. In October 1967, while on a bombing mission over Hanoi, he was shot down, seriously injured, and captured by the North Vietnamese. He was a prisoner of war until 1973. McCain experienced episodes of torture, and refused an out-of-sequence early repatriation offer. His war wounds left him with lifelong physical limitations.
He retired from the Navy as a captain in 1981 and moved to Arizona, where he entered politics. Elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1982, he served two terms, and was then elected to the U.S. Senate in 1986, winning re-election easily four times, most recently in 2010. While generally adhering to conservative principles, McCain at times has had a media reputation as a "maverick" for his willingness to disagree with his party on certain issues. After being investigated and largely exonerated in a political influence scandal of the 1980s as a member of the Keating Five, he made campaign finance reform one of his signature concerns, which eventually led to the passage of the McCain-Feingold Act in 2002. He is also known for his work towards restoring diplomatic relations with Vietnam in the 1990s, and for his belief that the war in Iraq should be fought to a successful conclusion. McCain has chaired the Senate Commerce Committee, opposed spending that he considered to be pork barrel, and played a key role in alleviating a crisis over judicial nominations.
Donald John Trump, Sr. (born June 14, 1946) is an American business magnate, television personality and author. He is the chairman and president of The Trump Organization and the founder of Trump Entertainment Resorts. Trump's extravagant lifestyle, outspoken manner and role on the NBC reality show The Apprentice have made him a well-known celebrity who was No. 17 on the 2011 Forbes Celebrity 100 list. He is well-known as a real-estate developer who amassed vast hotel, casino, and other real-estate properties, in the New York City area and around the world.
Trump is the son of Fred Trump, a wealthy New York City real-estate developer. He worked for his father's firm, Elizabeth Trump & Son, while attending the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and in 1968 officially joined the company. He was given control of the company in 1971 and renamed it The Trump Organization.
In 2010, Trump expressed an interest in becoming a candidate for President of the United States in the 2012 election. In May 2011, he announced he would not be a candidate, but a few weeks later he said he had not completely ruled out the possibility. In December 2011, Trump was suggested as a possible Vice Presidential selection by Michele Bachmann. Bachmann has since suspended her presidential campaign.

Plot: Summer, 2008: John McCain secures the nomination, but polls behind Barack Obama. Strategist Steve Schmidt suggests a game changer: picking a conservative female with media savvy, unknown Alaska governor Sarah Palin, as vice president. She's an immediate hit and a quick study - the gap closes. Then, Tina Fey's impersonation, a raft of criticism, and missing her family send Palin into a near-catatonic state: she doesn't prepare for her Katie Couric interview and bombs. Schmidt searches for an answer: don't expect her to learn the issues, but give her a script. Palin does well in the debate with Biden; she finds her voice, goes off script, and goes rogue. A mistake?

Plot: John McCain is a poor student, except at wrestling, but toughs it out in Annapolis at the US Naval Academy with the goal of becoming a career naval officer like his father and grandfather, who were both admirals. Love at first sight leads to a marriage and children with Carole. During the Vietnam War, he's shot down and captured by the Vietcong, who torture American POWs. He resists years of torture and misery, only breaking once due to his busted limbs, and eventually returning home after five and one half years in captivity.

y es que yo me siento como iluminado, enamorado
tú me quieres, yo te quiero
entonces por qué no estar juntos
caminemos de la mano, conquistaremos el mundo
tu y yo, el mundo, el mundo, para los dos
dime como te sientes.
He bailado bajo la lluvia
he sentido la luz del sol
he tenido la sensación de que me quieres
si invertí eso me ha hecho grande
si dónde ahora se quien soy
yo le entrego mi corazón
si aun lo quiere.
Oh oh oh oh oh... te voy a esperar
Oh oh oh oh oh... te voy a esperar.
Si no estas se detiene el tiempo
si no estas por siempre
te voy a esperar
si no estas se detiene el tiempo
te voy a esperar.
Oh oh oh oh oh... te voy a esperar
Oh oh oh oh oh... te voy a esperar.
No he dejado de crecer
nunca me he olvidado de soñar
y en el momento que te vi
descubri la electricidad.
Be bailado bajo la lluvia
he sentido la luz del sol
he tenido la sensación de que me quieres
si invertí eso me ha hecho grande
si dónde ahora se quien soy
yo le entrego mi corazón
si aun lo quieres.
Oh oh oh oh oh... te voy a esperar
Oh oh oh oh oh... te voy a esperar.
Yo te esperaré
siempre aquí estaré
y a tu lado yo caminaré
lucharé, volaré
cumpliremos los sueños juntos
no no no no te vallas, ven regresa.
Te voy esperar
Oh oh oh oh oh... te voy a esperar
Oh oh oh oh oh... te voy a esperar
Oh oh oh oh oh... te voy a esperar
