Unfortunately, I believe that the prestige these noble former President's gained through their service has become overshadowed in a world where elections cost hundreds of millions of dollars through the campaigning process where candidates present empty promises which weaken the nation but appeal to the slothy masses and economic thralls.

Capt Jeffrey Kempff, CPT to CPT stay focus answer the question and don't let the BS blind side. We as veterans can choose to play along or choose to be that OEF, OIF or next LIC President that the question asked about.

I'll give it a go, but I would be so blatantly pro-military and veteran that I'd get taken out before the end of my first year.

The bigger problem is that most American don't care about what is important. If asked, they would probably say the cared about veterans, but if they had to do anything more than answer the question they would lose all interest. Someone would be getting in the way of their television, Facebook posting or whatever 'important' thing happening on their phone.

SFC Mark Merino, you will not be taken out at all because you will vets, serving as your Force Pro. Think about those that have the skills to listen to all phone conversations and share that with those that take care of business.

I'm still hoping Colin Powell will run. However I think it would be great to have a president that was involved in one of those.

SSG Jed Fisher - Powell was born in New York City. I'm curious why you think there would be issues with his birth certificate.

How old is this? Powell died in 2021 at age 84.
Some claim that he went soft. Perhaps he just adjusted his opinion as a result of additional information. Something that a real leader ought to do.
