Tributes have been flooding in for late U.S. Senator John McCain, who died over the weekend
after losing his battle with brain cancer.
Ro Aram has more.
Former presidents and politicians have been leading the tributes for the long-time Republican.
Ex-President Barack Obama, who beat McCain to the White House in 2008, issued a statement,
saying all should aspire to McCain's courage to put the greater good above our own.
Obama added that despite their differences, they shared a "fidelity to something higher."
George W. Bush described him as a man of deep conviction and a patriot of the highest order.
Jimmy Carter said Americans will be ever grateful for the Vietnam veteran's heroic military
service and for his steadfast integrity as a member of the U.S. Senate.
Fellow politicians and current President Donald Trump also expressed their condolences via
social media.
McCain was one of Trump's harshest critics throughout his campaign and presidency.
Tributes also came in from world leaders, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel,
British Prime Minister Theresa May and French President Emmanuel Macron.
Barack Obama and George W. Bush are expected to give eulogies at a funeral at Washington
National Cathedral.
McCain's family is reported to have said they do not want President Trump to attend.
Vice President Mike Pence is expected to represent the White House instead.
