Colin Powell is regarded as one of the United States' greatest statesman and a retired four-star general in the United States Army. He was the 65th United States Secretary of State (2001-2005), serving under President George W. Bush. He was the first African American appointed to that position. He was the first, and so far the only, African American to serve on the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

SCENARIO: You have one chance, one opportunity to ask one question...

What would you ask President Barack Obama?

Follow-up: Why would you choose to ask this question?

Dear Gen. Powell,
When are you running for President? There are a whole lot of us that can't wait for some like you to turn our country around. For the better!

SSG Robert "Rob" Wentworth - I doubt it as well, but one can imagine that it would be a good thing IF he did.

The President one? That should be the Number 1 question for him.

First, I had the pleasure of serving under this great man. If I could meet him I would just say thank you for being one the best leaders I had the honor of serving under. Second, my serious question would have to be why wasn't he more vocal about the first draw down. A lot of good soldiers lost their military careers because of this. Why didn't he stand up for us troops?
