    Where is Gen. James N. Mattis now a days? Yes, he is an American treasure

    Should be required viewing for every politician in this country. Mattis is an American treasure.

    I was shot in the chest - body armor and luck saved me - in Baghdad in '06 by a Sunni sniper. He was caught three weeks later, and he wasn't a religious fanatic. When interrogated, he said the same - "You are foreign Soldiers, and you don't belong in my country." I can respect that too, even though he damned near killed me. After 9 years of writing letters, the interpreter who served with me in Kunar, AFG finally escaped at the 11th hour from Kabul with his wife and children. He served alongside us for years, risked his life in firefights, braved murder threats, family members turning against him, and a myriad of other hazards, just for the chance to come here.

    Please, I know he's older, but this man needs to run for President. A modern Dwight Eisenhower.

      He'd never make it through a republican primary now.

    Mattis may not call himself an outstanding Marine, but when I listen to him speak, I feel like the malaise and confusion of this world weakens and is replaced by a spirit of rationality, competence, and integrity.
    He can instill the necessary mindset to keep people sharp and their head in the game, the hallmark of a true leader.

      I think it's a credit to the Marines that his caliber is mediocre. I think the overall nature of our military is a tremendous synergy of normal, everyday people with a love of their family and community. They achieve something as a team that would be impossible as an individual. And yet it is the individual sacrafice and suffering that enables the team to achieve so much.
      Contrasted against the Russian army where they could take their best and feed it into a system of corruption and it destroys them and achieves as a team that the individuals could have achieved on their own.

    "The land of the free" seems to have become "the land of free stuff." The Depression-WWII generation didn't expect to be taken care of, but today's people seem to want that.
