former Sec. of Army-Bush used improper reason to go to war,
heard him say it on Tavis Smiley

Attorney Clifford Alexander has had an impressive career, including working under four consecutive U.S. presidents (Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Carter) and serving as the first African American Secretary of the Army. Educated at Harvard and Yale, he concentrated on making the all-volunteer Army work and stressed programs to enhance professionalism. After leaving public service, he formed the consulting firm of Alexander and Associates, which provides human resources management counsel to corporations.

2. Alexander is an extremely impressive intellect and personality
I saw him take apart that arrogant Senator from Wyoming, Alan Simpson. It was a sight to see. He just took him down hard in front of a national audience...

Always wondered why he never ran for office. He'd win.

3. Why would someone with such a patriotic background
hate freedom so much?
