Afghanistan

Long ago, after the insane, absurd advice he received from his senior military advisers in the Bay of Pigs and Cuban missile crisis fiascos, President John F. Kennedy, himself a decorated World War II veteran, wisely concluded, “The first thing I’m going to tell my successor, is watch the generals...”

How can the decision making process be improved? How can the USA develop strategies that work better? After the Bay of Pigs JFK asked Ike for advice. Ike told JFK to revamp his team's decision making process. I think that may need to be done again today. As a general and President, Ike was successful at getting his team to make sound decisions. The USA desperately needs that again.
