Yes I would. Because Obama is an ass.
I would replace him with my brother. Because he's smart, has military experience, he's honest, and one of the best men on the planet. Or, Colin Powell - for very much the same reasons.
Powell is not qualified, he voted for Obama.
Powell is qualified.
He may have voted for Obama but he also regretted that vote. He's smart enough to admit he made a mistake. I like Powell. Everyone is entitled to make a mistake occasionally - if they learn from it and admit it.
He's a courageous man.
But I'd be happy if my brother was POTUS. Because he is awesome, unfortunately he's still a Marine so is not available.
Powell said he was wrong to vote for Obama?
Your Brother yes, Powell no.
Snip
So, on the basis of having seen a picture of a Muslim mother of a Muslim son who had been killed in Iraq, Colin Powell uses his (apparent) prestige to tell the interviewer and all of America, that there is nothing wrong with Islam, nothing wrong with the ideology of Islam, nothing to be concerned about in Sharia supremacism, nothing wrong with the idea of a Muslim president. His irresponsibility astounds.
He once held high office. And though he never demonstrated any particular gifts, he acquired -- possibly because there had to be something good about him to focus on -- the reputation for "integrity." Apparently the gift to his wife of a Jaguar from Prince Bandar, his tennis partner, who was recently revealed in Great Britain to have been the recipient of up to $2 billion in kickbacks from a British aerospace company, and who was famous for distributing his largesse to powerful people in Washington, did nothing to modify this reputation for "integrity."
It would be useful to know, by the way, whether Colin Powell has been on the Arab lecture-circuit, the way so many others among our high and mighty have been, picking up, for a single lecture, a hundred thousand, two hundred thousand, even a million dollars (if you are Bill Clinton, or the first George Bush). But palling around with an obvious fixer and influence-peddler who worked on behalf of a sinister ruling family of a most sinister country, Saudi Arabia, befriending him, becoming his tennis-partner, says a lot about Colin Powell's judgment -- none of it good.
