    heck if I know... you ask some hard *** questions!!

    Though I do think we need to pull together and get this country where it needs to be.

    You are gonna hate this, but I think McCain should have be given some position in the cabinet. I think he is knowledgeable and powerful and no I did not vote for him... it's just the vibe I get and to me that would have really pulled all Americans together as 1 or as close to 1 as we can become.

    Best of Luck!!

    it might be, but now if he does keep the current secretary of defense does that mean he was wrong about the Iraq and Afghanistan?
