        He was fired too quickly by Obama. That means he doesn't know how to say it to Potus !

        Nobody can ever tell him that he is wrong Mr. Gates and make him listen. When did you get so cagey? Tell us.

        Is Defense Secretary Robert Gates suggesting future US presidential candidates should go through pre-school education for 5 year old kids?
