That’s certainly my first choice!! Followed closely by Thompson/Patraeus.
Patraeus
Get real. First of all he can’t campaign while in still in the Marines and DEFINITELY not in uniform. Say he wanted to do this. He would have to request to retire which could take months and then he could get in, but it would not be tomorrow (maybe by mid-summer). Next, what are his thoughts on the issues? Is he pro-life? for gay marriage? Just because he is miliary doesn’t mean he might not be for some of these believe me there are quite a few officers in the military who are pro-choice and some that don’t care about the gay marriage thing so would not care if it got passed. Just a thought.
