I love this guy's voice!
A little shaggy headed and he's got too many chick songs, but a good voice! He will make a fine President.

I've just returned from a fascinating and wide-ranging interview with former US Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton. On the subject of electoral politics and personal ambition, Bolton has been playing a bit coy with the media in recent weeks, refusing to rule out a potential presidential bid in 2012.
This morning he waded further into the subject, telling me he's "very seriously" contemplating a White House run in 2012 and that he's begun consulting with high-level campaign operatives to discuss feasibility and logistics. Bolton cited what he described as President Obama's failures, the "wide open" Republican field, and the knowledge and experience he could bring to the table as the primary factors that sparked his interest in running. He also repeatedly stressed that an official decision is not imminent because his top focus remains working to help Republicans succeed in next month's midterm elections.
Does he think he can win? Could his rift with President Bush complicate his chances? How does he size up his potential Republican adversaries? Would he shave the 'stache?
For the answers to those questions and more, check back here early next week for a comprehensive write-up of our discussion.

I’m All In!
I will also.
I love him.
I love this guy's voice!

I wish he would as he takes no BS
I’d love to support him, but his position on border security needs a little fleshing out.
I wish he would as he takes no BS
I respect John Bolton because he’s a man who is unafraid to say it as it is!!
Perfect! I love the guy !
See my tagline...
That it does. But he’s been a hawk on sovereignty, so I’m hopeful he has the Hunter agenda re. the border.
I could support Bolton.
What a refreshing contrast to the stiffs he would be.
In a debate, John Bolton would be hard to best (either in primary or general).
Few, if any, have the situational awareness of things international as does Mr. Bolton.
.
I love it when a plan starts coming together.
We need another president with facial hair. The last was was... who?
Hell-to-the-yeah.
I’d even throw money at him, which would be a first.
I would have to know more about where he stands on issues other than foreign policy before I can get excited. Right now I see him as the ideal Secretary of State.
Anyone who puts a foot in the rear end of the UN the way Bolton does gets support from me.
