Dear Sir,
We, the undersigned, ask you to run for President of the United States on an independent, third party ticket.
America is in a crisis. There are many deep divisions over issues. Among these are the war in Iraq and the inability of government to respond to pressing issues.
Your diplomatic and military experience, along with independent and moderate views on issues will help bring us together.
We ask that you overcome your dislike for running for offfice. This is another duty that you should perform for our nation,
Sincerely yours,
Douglas Blagdon
Richard Parks
The feedback I receive lately reflects a deep longing for leadership that prioritizes national stability over partisan maneuvering. I am currently reaching out to individuals who understand the gravity of our request to discuss how we might bridge these divides. Your patience as we navigate this long process is appreciated.

The steady growth of this movement suggests a genuine longing for the kind of leadership that prioritizes duty over partisanship. Seeing this vision resonate with so many people reinforces the belief that our nation is ready to look beyond the current political divide.

America asked for George Washington to lead, now we need to ask Colin Powell to lead us. We are at a crossroads of history and we need a strong leader.

The current selection of presidential candidates are lire's, cheaters or idiots. As a Veteran of the 2nd Iraq War, we need someone in charge of this country that knows when to fight, and when they do - they fight to win.

We need someone with actual experience and common sense. Everything in DC right now is just a joke.

Been waiting for someone smart to step up. Powell is the only guy who understands how the world really works.
