Powell President In '08

White House Briefing -- News on President George W Bush and the Bush Administration - washingtonpost.com: "...What if Powell hadn't been such a 'good soldier'? What if he'd been more willing to speak the truth? What if he hadn't let himself be manipulated by Vice President Cheney and suckered by bad intelligence? What if Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld had been forced to resign, instead of him? What if Powell had gone public with his concerns about Iraq, before or after the invasion? What if he'd resigned in protest?"...

I am not a Colin Powell fan, but I'd bet if he had followed the "if clauses" above he would've eventually won the Republican nomination and quite possibly the Presidency.
