Reply #10: Yes, let's FOCUS on the word "hero" [View All]

[ShortnFiery]

Many who have not served in the Military nor have been around the Military environment, can't see beyond the well tailored Public Relations Training that General Officers are given once they put on that first star. And yes, some very honorable Vets think he's "The Answer." With respect, I do NOT. :(

There are some very brave men in battle, two of them were my Father and Older brother, but even they shudder at the label "HERO."

I'm suggesting that you are inspired by militarism, in general, and Clark's polish, specifically has you agog.

I don't believe in heroes. I believe in honest and honorable men who serve their country and their family. I don't put any one HUMAN on a "classy" pedestal.

Most of all, I want a President of The United States who has NOT been Part of The War Machine / indoctrinated within the Military Industrial Complex.

Take a step back and look closely across the years at *This Mere Man* ... He's no hero, just another SMOOTH and self made man.

You're IMO way way WAY too pulled in by this "fantasy of strong leadership" that is nothing more than intelligence and good Public Relations Training. :(

Let's hesitate to MILITARIZE our highest Civilian Office? IMO he'd make an excellent Secretary of Defense and I hope President Gore selects him for this position. :hi:
