I'd imagine Republicans equate military service with some kind of supernatural experience.
McCain: He had a lot of bad luck in Vietnam. Doesn't make him a superhero or a good candidate.

I had an old neighbor who was awarded the Navy Cross after the Bataan death march. He was a racist and a bigot. In his opinion we lost 'Nam because the "kids we sent over there were too much a bunch of pussies to win the damn thing."
Being in the military, even being a war hero, doesn't mean you're qualified to be POTUS.
