[Vision2020] Has McCain Lifted a Story from Solzhenitsyn as His Own?

[Tom Hansen]

Thanks for bringing this up, Nick.

John McCain has told this story about when he was a POW and his captor 
drew a cross in the sand and that he'll never forget. 

However his story is extremely similar to the story told by by Alexander 
Solzhenitsyn. Sure this type of thing could happen more then once however 
McCain seems to be a Solzhenitzyn buff. He even wrote a piece on him for 
the New York Sun

"Solzhenitsyn at Work" by John McCain (August 8, 2008) from the New York 
Sun:

I am waiting for his to steal that line used by Steve Martin in "The 
Jerk" . . .

"I was born a poor black child . . . "

students are not very active in local elections (thank goodness!)."
