Five Potential Presidential Possibilities (all start with "P")


1. GENERAL DAVID PETRAEUS. His biography shows him to be an acknowledged LEADER, something sorely missing in Washington today.


2. GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN. Unless you've been hiding under a rock since some time before the last presidential election, you are already very familiar with Sarah Palin

3. GOVERNOR TIM PAWLENTY. The 39th governor

4.GOVERNOR RICK PERRY. The 47th governor

5. REPRESENTATIVE MIKE PENCE.
This Indiana congressman describes himself as "a Christian, a Conservative and a Republican, in that order." Sounds good to me and, as soon as he gets a little better known ____________________
Although General Petraeus has publicly declared he will not run for public office, there is always hope. We have never, in my lifetime, experienced a greater dearth of political leadership, and may never have needed it more. He unconditionally loves his country and is the one man, at the moment, who could restore our nation to its rightful place in the world, just by being its president. He, along with any of the other four above mentioned candidates, could surely beat anyone in the other camp - assuming we will still be having free elections by the year 2012.

General Petraeus for President


Our nation has never been so bereft of leadership: That virtue does not exist presently in the Congress or in the White House. We are losing our way because of this lack of leadership, and there is only one man who can stop our decline, but he says he's not interested in politics - all the better!

We need to rally behind this American hero, and appeal to his love for our country - another virtue in short supply in Congress and non-existent in the White House. Should the general change his mind and agree to run, it might be a good idea for him to run as an Independent so as not to be beholden to either of two parties that have failed us so miserably, while spending their time and energy fighting each other at our expense.

For now, just consider the proposition. A proven leader in the White House who is more interested in preserving the republic than in his own self-aggrandisement sounds like a great idea to me.
