Watch THIS!


'The Next President' Saturday, 9 p.m. ET (9/20- 6PM)
Five former Secretaries of State tell CNN's Christiane Amanpour and Frank Sesno what advice they have for "The Next President". Saturday night, 9 p.m. ET
When I saw this, I immediately tried to guess what this "so-called" advice will actually focus on. Will they discuss the economy (of course!), foreign relations (of course!), health (of course!) as well as other things, but will they discuss race politics? Will they discuss poverty? Will they discuss issues that actually effect the average American on a daily basis? Education reform, abortion rights, gay-marriage, so on and so forth. There are MANY things that can be discussed, but- truly, what kind of advice can truly be given to the upcoming President?
I'm going to assume that we (as educated citizens) are well aware of the fact that whomever is voted into the White House must FIRST clean up the mess that has developed over the past 8 years BEFORE anything else can be accomplished. Obviously, this includes legislation reform and a complete re-do of the economy, of the relationships that have suffered, of health, and of the welfare of the average American. I guess what I'm really trying to say is "where do you begin to give "advice" at this point?" There's so much to DO!!
