&lt;p&gt;As a concerned citizen, I consider it is my duty to bring following message to you all.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;We the citizens of the United States of America have the ultimate responsibility to elect the &amp;quot; Right Candidate&amp;quot; to lead our nation, out of our huge present and future internal and external challenges as well as opportunities. This is to prevent depression and isolation in-spite of being the only superpower in the world morally, democratically, economically, and militarily.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We need to consider the &amp;quot;critical qualities and characteristics&amp;quot; of &amp;nbsp;our presumptive presidential nominees at the time we vote.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In my personal and professional opinion the critical considerations are as under:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. Calm, cool, and collected &amp;quot; temper &amp;quot; [ Presidential Temperament ].&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Sound and sustained &amp;quot;Judgment and Caliber&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. &amp;quot;Thought-fullness and togetherness&amp;quot; of purpose and positions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. Minimum &amp;quot;ex-poser and exploitation&amp;quot; around &amp;quot;Washington and Washington insiders&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. Renewed &amp;quot; Vigor and Vision &amp;quot; for our Greatgrand Nation. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6. Foreign policy based on &amp;quot; American Values, Virtuous, Vastness&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Stay informed, stay involved, and stay engaged. Do not allow some partisan media, pundits, pollsters, and perpetual political opinion makers effect your vote in the wrong direction. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Don't be effected and duped by &amp;quot;Psychological Terrorism&amp;quot; that is directed at common American people without their full consent and awareness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Long live U.S.A and its diverse but democratic people. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Col. A.M. Khajawall [Ret] MD., ABFM., ABDA.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Chief Consultant: World Wide Porfessional Consultants[WWPC]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Colonel, USAR/MC Combat Stress Control[Ret], Disabled American Veteran and Freedom team.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Consultant Psychiatrist: CA State, Medical Board of California, and Los Angeles Mental Health Department&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Address: 7642 Eaglehelm Court Las Vegas NV 89123&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PS: Here is the camparison.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We have wasted 30 years walking away from diplomacy in our interactions with Iran. Foreign policy of President Bush in regard to Iran had been to sabotage the basic premise of diplomacy by under cutting the actions of European Union foreign policy Chief Javier Solana.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now, we expect a miracle at par with our shock-and-Awa because Undersecretary of State William Burns has attended the Geneva meeting. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What does Iran Want? &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://straveler-myamerica.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://straveler-myamerica.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Before drawing a red line with Iran, we must be clear about our own motivations and the expected outcomes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let us stay cool and use diplomatic rules of engagement and talk with Iran.&lt;/p&gt;
