Foreign Policy All Stars Advise Next President

You don't see this everyday: five former Secretaries of State gather on one stage to give their advice to whomever is the next President of the United States.

He should want to listen.

Henry Kissinger, Madeline Albright, Warren Christopher, James Baker III and Colin Powell. Republicans and Democrats. Very smart people. Either Baker or Powell could have my vote for President of they wanted it.

What did they say?

You can read for yourself here. But, in a nutshell, they said TALK. TALK to Syria. TALK to Russia. TALK to Iran. ENGAGE. They did not agree on all the details, but they all said TALK.

I hope John McCain is listening. Obama already has the message.
