2. I was noting that all discussion seems centered Clinton for SOS
and not the lack of change in the Defense Department

4. The change in the defense Department will come on January 20th......
as that is the date marked on my calendar, when the new Commander in Chief will be sworn in.

Till then speculation of "No Change" is fine, if it turns you on.
What turns me on is that the person that we voted in this election,
will on that date be sworn in, and at that time,
his vision for this country will start.

So again, I say....till then.

I believe that I am being as reasonable as you think you are in my outlook.

5. Gates is a gate keeper and a huge change since Rumsfeld
Not my cup of Tea, but the defense department has had a major
influx of religious nuts and neo-cons over the years. Gates is a career
insider who had both negative and positive past history within Government.
I do believe he stopped War with Iran though.

The defense contracts alone give me pause on where the real power is in the US.

I see Gates being there or a year or little more, after that, expect to see someone like Clark come in.
