"I belive that behind close doors there is talk for Mr. Powell to take up a new post in the New Democratic administration , if elected."
He`s not keen on the idea, from Meet the Press:
"GEN. POWELL: I served 40 years in government, and I--I`m not looking forward to a position or an assignment. Of course, I have always said if a president asks you to do something, you have to consider it. But I am in no way interested in returning to government. But I, of course, would sit and talk to any president who wishes to talk to me.
MR. BROKAW: You`re not ruling it out?
GEN. POWELL: I would sit and talk to any president who wishes to talk to me, but I`m not anxious to rule it in." |
