You're ruling out one of the main candidates in the 2008 election; Rudolph Gullianni. As far as I know he has had nothing to do with any wars. And if you remember anything about 9/11 he was the most supportive government official, he aided 80% of the families affected by 9/11. I'm rambling though, and probably a little biased since I'm a Republican. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
