Agree. And I always remember this tidbit when thinking about Colin Powell:
“...President Ronald Reagan stood at the Brandenburg Gate in the divided city of Berlin and urged Mikhail Gorbachev, general secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, to “tear down this wall!”
At the time, several members of the Presidents staff opposed the remark... Advisor Colin Powell agreed, declaring it was “unpresidential.” Reagan ended the debate by saying, “I think well leave it in.”

America has stopped making a lot of things, including leaders. No, we don't make 'em like him anymore
