he’s clearly competant, a Washington outsider.
I’d support him!

Sarah has the top slot.

Well we don’t know much about his stances on anything and Eisenhower was a great military commander but kind of so so president.

Gen. Petraeus as recently as last week, stated that he has no desire for political office and / or seeking to run for POTUS?
He sounded sincere to me in his statements

It took the United States 233 years (1776-2009) to amass a national debt of $1.4 trillion. The national debt broke the trillion dollar mark around the time of World War II.

He’d make a fine VP for President Palin.

I don't know his politics. Four stars might get you an automatic in as defense secretary, but I need to know if he supports....
(1) Nationalized Health care
(2) Lower Taxes
(3) Literal interpretation of the Second Amendment.
(4) Limits on judicial power.
(5) Cultural issues (gay marriage and abortion).
Those are what I want to see in a president. If he supports those I'll support him. My philosophy is that I can forgive any politician one major issue. More than that and they don't truly represent me. I'm kinda simple that way.

Comments? What an ugly mess of an article....
Considering the headline, one would expect that Mr. de Borchgrave would actually discuss the topic.
Instead, we get an incoherent mess of angst that never really bothers to settle on a point.
Bleh...

I’m also very impressed with him. For sure I’d like to see him as Secretary of Just About Anything, Defense, State, DCI.
For president, I need to know a lot more about where he stands on issues other than defense. If he’s a believer and a constitutionalist, count me in.

He would clear the field and win with 395-425 electoral votes.

It's nice to see a few true conservatives stepping forward this time around.
With God's help, we may still turn this country back around and get it headed in the right direction again.

This is not a bad idea, based on what I know. Petraeus’s views are largely unknown to me, but I think he could have potential.

I think he has turned out to be a one of the great generals of all time however in the very beginning of the Iraq War there was troops that called him General Betrayus...
