Bolton is 100% American constitutionalist, much like Cruz.

General Kelly is an exception to several rules. I’d like him there..better than Corker or Mitt.

If the list (and who really knows, other than Trump) is really down to Bolton, Corker, Giuliani, Kelly, Petraeus, and Romney...then the ONLY one I like on that list is Kelly, hands down above the others.

Yahoo ^ | December 4, 2016 | Michael Isikoff
Posted on 12/4/2016, 7:54:45 AM by Leaning Right

In an exclusive interview with Yahoo Global News Anchor Katie Couric, Edward Snowden says that former CIA Director Gen. David Petraeus — under consideration to be President-elect Donald Trump’s secretary of state — disclosed “information that was far more highly classified than I ever did” and yet never “spent a single day in jail.”

Disgraced former general David Petraeus would have to check in with parole officer

Disgraced former general David Petraeus would have to check in with parole officer before being named secretary of state and he would need to clear ALL work travel in advance

David Petraeus would have three days to check in with his parole officer if Donald Trump picks him to be secretary of state in his administration

Petraeus pleaded guilty to sharing classified information with his mistress

The ex-general was sentenced to two years probation and fined $100,000

Parole deal states he would also have to clear all work travel

Disgraced former general David Petraeus would have to check in with his parole officer before being named secretary of state by Donald Trump.

Petraeus, an ex-four-star general who pleaded guilty in 2015 to sharing classified information with his mistress, Paula Broadwell, is reportedly in the frame to be picked by Trump for the prestigious position.

If he does get the nod from the Donald, Petraeus would have just three days to alert his parole officer about his new job.

The 64-year-old was sentenced to two years’ probation and fined $100,000 for sharing classified information with Broadwell.

He would also be required to tell the officer before leaving North Carolina and be subject to warrant-less searches, as well as having all work-related travel cleared in advance, court documents obtained by USA Today reveal.
