What?
No "None of the Above"?
Out of that bunch I would pick Powell. (even though it seems that the Powell in charge of the FCC doesn't have his head on correctly)
I would think that Colin Powell would be my only choice out of your list.

I don't think you can have a "none of the above" with that list. Unless I'm completely off here, that's the order of succession for the Presidency.

Assuming it got that far down the list. Short of some super freaky incident, it won't get past guy #2.

Colin Powell.
It's who we named our son after so many years ago.
For many reasons.
