5. Somebody play "Danny Boy" for him
If he gets all teary-eyed, then he may be too Irish.

(That emotional response to that particular song is a common occurence among my family members, and we are of Irish descent.)

7. McCain's family appears to be from Ulster
He is Scots-Irish.

Generally a bunch of agressive hot heads. Most of the gunfighters of the old West were Scots-Irish.

The last thing we need is an agressive president.
