Already known for his (& his twin brother's) astronaut service, it's interesting that he chose to wear his Pax River Navy Test Pilot vintage flight jacket in nearly all his campaign appearances covered by national media.
With Top Gun : Maverick still on movie screens, the patches on his Navy flight jacket make it a provocative campaign wardrobe choice over his NASA Astronaut blue flight jacket.

As the Dems search for younger, more mentally agile, potential 2024 successors to Biden, they'd be wise to consider & promote Kelly.
He's still a blank sheet who could potentially appeal to voters of both parties, ...if promoted rationally.
Would you vote for him over DeSantis or Trump?
Re: 2024
Yes. I don't know if Liz would be my first choice, even if she runs. I'd have to see who the other candidates are.
The only thing I'm sure of is that I will never vote for Trump. I never have.

Sadly, George HW (Senior) Bush might’ve been the best in my lifetime. I was a single digit aged for Reagan but time hasn’t been his friend and probably fairly though it seems like there’s some piling on with respect to his legacy. In the last 50-75yrs there’s been enough volatility over any stretch where if you’re there 8yrs at the top it’s hard to avoid any issues yet I’m not going to sh*t on three generations of our country when I look around the globe and there’s no other dirty shirt I’d put on instead.

'moderate to center right'? Kelly?
Voted 3x to ban fracking.
Voted 4x against Keystone XL pipeline.
97% lifetime rating from League of Conservation Voters (Green New Deal group).
Voted for Biden's entire inflationary agenda.
Voted with Biden 98% of the time.
The only thing moderate about Kelly is he once admitted to a journalist that the border was overrun. Then he voted to defund DHS Customs.
Like nearly every Democrat once in the Senate, they vote lockstep the America-last agenda.

Re: 2024
Would it be fair to assume that Liz's generally internationalist foreign policy posture would be an issue, versus someone with closer to an isolationist view? Or is that overstating?
I'm pretty sure she'd have the cojones to make tough decisions, while bringing western leaders with her.

Re: 2024
I didn't vote for him, but I had no issue in being "proud of my president" with Obama. I'm pretty proud of Biden's resilience, and particularly his leadership abroad. Wish he was smarter and younger, but among world leaders of today, he projects pretty darn well. I'd have been proud of a McCain or Romney as President, I'm sure. I wanted better from W, and was definitely 'proud' in the immediate aftermath of 9-11.

Of course, pretty much all of the Presidents in my lifetime, even Nixon, and Johnson's fiasco in Vietnam, compare well to the Trump lunacy.
