I know that he won't run for President but IMO he will write down his name in history if he does.

From what I recall it was the UN who felt the same way about WMD's. Please don't try to rewrite everything to put it on Powell. There was no disgrace for having the same opinion based on the same info the UN had at the time. All sadumb had to do was cooperate fully with the inspectors and he'd likely still be there killing his own people.
