I DVRed BO’R’s show. I listened to the one about interviewing ex-President Bush … and had an observation.
He thinks picking Dick for VP was a good choice.
Still.
I thought that was a blunder when he made that decision. And, still think it to this day.
One important role of a CEO is “succession planning”. By picking Dick, he abdicated that responsibility. And set the R’s up for failure.
If he had no choice but to pick Dick for the First Term, he should have (imho) made Condi the VP in the Second Term. And say Colin Powell Secretary of State.
That would have set up a Condi for Pres and Collin for VP in 2010.
We should have a tradition of one term Presidents. Or even amend the Constitution to either make it one term or remove the restriction.
Argh!
Let’s secede and start over.
