Quote from Ivanovich:
Please don't be silly. If there were going to be a coup, the military would be the arm doing the coup. A high level General would likely start it.
Most military coups thru history have been by some General who wanted to be dictator for life. In America what we'd need would be some General who could command enough respect and support from the rank and file.... to displace the radical government heads in order to restore constitutional principles for the government... 2 requirements, not just "get rid of the bastards"...
Any indication there is such a man in the picture? Patraeus? McChrystal? Powell?
