Title: Petraeus in NH says "I will not ever run for political office" Post by: Mr. Morden on March 24, 2010, 09:40:07 PM http://www.seattlepi.com/national/1130ap_us_petraeus_politics.html
Quote Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq and Afghanistan, took the stage Wednesday where presidential candidates have debated but said his visit had nothing to do with politics or New Hampshire, home to the first presidential primaries. . . . "I thought I've said 'no' as many ways as I could," he said. "I will not ever run for political office, I can assure you of that."

Had one too many rounds tonight.

Yes, I realize that that isn't legal, but surely they could change the rules for someone of his stature. Gibbs? You want Petraeus to be the White House Press Secretary? Obviously from his language, he expects Gibbs to replace Gates, and then Petraeus to replace Gibbs. How else will Obama get his proposed forced-homosexuality program through the military ranks?

Eisenhower originally didn't want to run for president if I am correct, but changed his mind when he saw a groundswell of grassroots support for a presidential bid.
