Colin Powell - A vastly over rated Affirmative Action appointee and Obama supporter.
Yes, I am sure General Cavazos is as described, a great hero. But we could have done with C. Powell reaching the top.
Thank you for your comment. This story is really about Dick Cavazos, but Powell was also a well respected officer. His political career is a different chapter of is story.
Do you know either?
And major disappointment as a Republican!
You don't get this for no reason. How many good officers careers were hampered by Affirmative Action like this?
Vastly is right. Powell should have been kicked out of the Army for his complicity in the initial cover-up of the My Lai massacre during Vietnam.
