He doesn't have the passion for politics....

It's a shame he won't run for President of the United States, he says he doesn't have the passion for politics. I think he could win and I think we'd be pleased with his diplomatic touch and his vision for the future of the U.S. as well as the rest of the world. It was a pleasure to see and hear him speak tonight. I didn't agree with everthing he said but he was entertaining, funny and straight forward and he has a very positive outlook on the state of the world's evolution....'the flattening of the the world'. If only the main monkey had listened to him three years ago....but we are where we are and his opinion is that we keep looking through the front windshield, not the rearview mirror. We keep moving forward, we keep working to make a better future by focusing on our children. We need more Head Start programs and others like it. I like him. Did you know he and Elvis were in Germany together?

JB said that it's not that he doesn't have the passion for politics...he doesn't have the enough of a desire to tolerate the year of dirty politics leading up to an election. His children and grandchildren's lives would be forever changed if he ran and won. The freedom they enjoy just walking to the park and playing without the secret service would have to end. They sacrificed for 44 years with his career. So, what a shame. Men of his caliber are not easy to find.

I think we need a third party. I'm so sick of the Republican party and just as sick with the Democrats. The extreme left, the extreme right are screwing things up for the true majority. And we need campaign reform badly. We need to have campaignes paid with public funds and keep it clean, keep it real, keep it honest. JB said that will never happen. I think he's wrong.
I often think he's wrong. LOL

Gen. Powell said it's ridiculous to think the United States would engage in a nuclear attack on any country and that the rumors about bombing Iran are ludicrous. Iran is years away from nuclear weapon capacity and we have lots of time for diplomacy. That, of course, would mean we need a president who is capable of such. hmmm. Who could it be?
