A military take-over of the government, if that's what you were thinking of, would not be at all popular, but Powell being ex-military would actually help him. Being the skin color that he is, however, would affect his prospects a lot more sharply than anything. There's an argument for both helping and hindering, and both might come into play if he were to run for election.) -- Matt _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
