Date: May 3rd, 2012 3:22 PM Author: passionate puppy garrison As was pointed out, Clinton tried and failed.
I'm extrapolating from the leadership qualities of the others. I think you'd have a hard time arguing any of them had the grit and organizational capacity to see this kind of mission through, even with today's tools. |
