General Norman Schwarzkopf.
You could very well be right and we won’t have an opportunity to assess that until he’s been out on the trail making political noises. He could, as you say, end up being another Colin Powell.
No way to know that right now. He’ll have to put his political philosophy on display for examination. For all intents and purposes he is, at this moment, an unknown political quantity.
General Norman Schwarzkopf.
Ok, that may be true. Is General Schwarzkopf a principled conservative? I have actually not heard much about him or from him, since the end of the first golf war.
The point is, the higher one goes in the military, just like the higher one goes in business, the more you are conditioned to say & think politically correct terminology, to promote multi-culteralism & diversity training & acceptance, to promote & EMBRACE the pro-homosexual agenda, to promote affirmative action programs & promotions, to promote globalism in which every third word is globalist this or that, to downgrade U.S. sovereignty and promote open borders, to embrace & capitulate to Islam, to take away personal gun rights, to promote radical socialism, etc.
This is what goes on in higher military offices as well as middle to high executive business offices.
Well yeah, he’s in the armed forces. Publicly they have to be politically neutral.
