Colin Powell would have the best opportunity to draw votes from all groups in the Nation. The possibility he will run scares the Kool-Aid drinkers to death.

Foreign Policy Experience: Secretary of State and builder of coalition during Gulf War I. Respected diplomat who can build alliances.

Military Experience: Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff, Respected Vietnam Vet, Graduate of West Point and knows the Pentagon inside and out.

National Security Experience: Held Condi's position in Reagan Administration.

A true "moderate" Republican who can draw support from all and enlarge the base.

Brings Leadership, Integrity and Honor to the table.

If you were Hillary would you like to debate this guy? He would have her for lunch with no leftovers baby.

Oh and did I mention he is African American and the son of Immigrants? Republican’s chance to erase lots of blue from the map.

I've met Powell while in the military; he is a confident and inspiring leader.

With a resume like this even a Southern Red Neck has to give this man props.

The proposed nominees in the posts above all have too much baggage for an effective run.

Look for Powell to leave after two years for a run as the Republican nominee.

Colin Powell has made it clear that he has no aspirations whatsoever to run for the office of President in'08.

I'd vote for him, but that might not mean much. After this election I probably won't be voting for any democrats ever again. I have heard that his wife would never ever let him run, that she used to be convinced that someone might harm him.
