I strongly oppose the nomination of Patrick Shanahan. A 30yr executive at Boeing aircraft is not who should be heading the Department of Defense; someone whose background lies in corporate defense contracting is exactly who should not be running the show. npr.org/2019/05/09/703454156…

Shanahan has served as acting defense secretary since former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis resigned last December over President Trump's decision to withdraw U.S. troops from Syria.

This is the kind of corruption with the military industrial complex that President Eisenhower warned us about decades ago.

Oh relax. We hired a Ford Executive to run the DOD during the Vietnam era and that worked out just fine.

When will the weirdness end? Who’s slipping these little post-it notes under his phone?

I agree. Also, this brings up the question of your qualifications and I do mean this in a respectful way. What are your qualifications and why should I consider you as the nominee for the Democrat party?
