I would vote for Dr. Condoleezza Rice, PhD for president. I would seriously consider GEN Colin Powell (he would be more centrist... like McCain). My admiration for these two eminent persons is not tempered one bit by their color or gender. My respect for them is generated by their record of performance and their devotion to our country. Both of them are intelligent leaders having experience that eclipses that of a community organizer.

I doubt that either Dr Rice or GEN Powell would bow to a foreign leader. I prefer our POTUS to be an upright and forthright person of integrity whole believes in the concept of noblesse oblige... not arrogant... nor displaying contrived humility on inappropriate occasions. Because we ARE the most powerful nation on earth, we need to act with dignity, compassion, and restraint... not poorly feigned humility.

As the captain of a ship IS the ship... the POTUS IS the nation.

Meanwhile, our POTUS is stylin'.
