Petraeus will run for President.

The most decorated and honored military officer of his generation. That’s what we need...real leadership and vision.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

There is NO POSSIBLE WAY that I would vote for a man that allowed his troops to serve under a likely usurper posing as president and Commander in Chief.

While General Patraeus might be willing to fall on a grenade for his troops against a foreign enemy on foreign soil, I **seriously** doubt that he would defend the Constitution against a **domestic** enemy. Gee! doing that might hurt his career or pension. /s

This man ( with domestic balls of a dust mite) turned a blind eye to two officers who **politely** asked Obama to prove his natural born citizenship. Patraeus let two truly brave men and war veterans, Lakin and Cook, twist slowly in the wind.

( My apologies to the noble dust mite.)

Out of curiousity, General Pershing...would you vote for Petreaus if he turns out to be a Democrat???

There’s banter back oand forth on this thread that Gen’l Petreaus is a RINO, or a Dem, or voted for Obama, or whatever. Personally, that’s the first I’ve heard of any of that.

It poses a problem for me voting for him, for sure, if this is true. While I applaud his military service to the country and hold him in pretty high regard, the Dems policy positions are, to say the least, NOT in the best American interests... So if true, what does that say about his judgement in aligning himself with the Party that’s doing eveything possible to wreck the country and turn us into a socialist sh*thole?? It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to read the communist party platform and compare it to the democrat platform and do a quick comparison...and come up seeing them both pointing in the same direction...

Anybody else care to comment? It would seem to be an important point to consider if he does run.

And for the record, I’m not calling him a “traitor” or anything like that - I don’t know the man, I don’t know his heart, and all I know of him is as a good general officer that cares about his troops, doing his duty as he sees fit, for a clueless, seditious “commander” in chief who hates the country.
