With the recent announcement of Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel stepping down, the President needs to nominate a potential replacement to lead our Armed Forces. General James "Mad Dog" Mattis is a retired Marine General with extensive experience in defense and war-fighting. With the world becoming more chaotic by the day with crisis in every corner of the world, we need a strong leader that understands the military and is able to handle any situation that arises. Highly respected among the US military and military forces around the world, General Mattis would be a good replacement for outgoing Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel.
