Unfortunate moniker again, for very unzenlike letter. Zen practioners are not 'attached' to following politics.
At any rate, living through an event, both long distance, and up close, does not preclude you from learning. I'm in my mid- 50s and have had to work with computers for years. Many older people have either learned the internet, or are learning. In fact, it keeps you 'younger' to learn new things.
With McCain, it is just a small pattern that exposes his larger pattern, and the overall pattern of the Republican Party. Underthinking everything. It does no good to 'experience' an event, but not really understand it.
