Hi - two ideas:
1. Why does Sec State need to go flying all over the world? We have ambassadors, other diplomats, and the UN. Why that one individual needs to run ragged visiting every corner of the planet I don’t understand and don’t like. Let’s start having them come to visit the SecState.
2. If travel can be controlled, I’m going to float a name for SecState which hasn’t been heard. Someone who is a plain talker, understands the world, is America First, and has as more gravitas than all the current administration combined. If some country wants special treatment from us, let them come round and meet with Don Rumsfeld.
You got me, I don't know. Condi Rice was always going somewhee as well, darned if I know. What did they do before planes, trains and automobiles.
Rumsfield would be good as well. I have always like him, no matter what they say. Rummy does have a way with words that I admire.

Disagree. Rummy has an impressive resume’, but his experience is different (and he’s enjoying retirement). I would rather have John Bolton, former Amb. to the UN as the SoS. He knows what’s going on and also knows how the UN operates. He is a no nonsense-type of person who cuts through the BS.
I only hope that Romney will significantly reduce the US tax dollars that are probably funding about 1/3 of the UN.
