John McCain on science investment

NASA Watch: "[Republican presidential candidate John McCain] also said he strongly supports missions to Mars and that Florida should continue to play a major role in space exploration. "There's too much invested there. There's infrastructure that's very expensive and very extensive there," he said."

John McCain has been a supporter of the space program in the past, but has been suspiciously silent on the campaign trail.

The quote above is one year old.

He can't be for oil and against global warming, it's either one or the other.I think he's for the troops and the rest be damned.

Technology is important for the nation and for Her survival.

McCain will probably make a call for less troops which will mean more technology in medical/biomedical/aero/space

Which are sciences that we should focus on to get ahead in the world.
