Mythologizing involves, seemingly, some kind of elevation or stretching of the truth so that it becomes larger than life. If you believe it, being trapped and tortured gives one the requisite qualities to lead a nation, not ptsd or history of tantrums, but some inflated patriotism. By these standards alone, there are a lot of vets, that could run for office.
