One of the things that's very troubling to voters about Donald Trump is his erratic behavior, his lack of good temperament to serve as commander in chief.
Robby Mook
Image
I have broken all ties that bind me to the (U.S.) Army, not suddenly, impulsively, but conscientiously and after due deliberation. I sacrifice more to my principles than any other officer in the Army can do. I would rather carry a musket in the cause of the South than be commander-in-chief under Mr. Lincoln.
Edmund Kirby Smith

What we heard today was not fiscal leadership from our Commander-in-Chief, what we heard today was a political broadside from our Campaigner-in-Chief.

I return with feelings of misgiving from my third war-I was the first American commander to put his signature to a paper ending a war when we did not win it.
Bill Vaughan

Russell Crowe as Capt. Jack Aubrey in Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, .. most unlikely.
Peter Weir

I believe my arrival was most welcome, not only to the Commander of the Fleet but almost to every individual in it.
Horatio Nelson
Image
I believe we should work and want to have the most powerful military, but hope we never have to use it. I strongly believe the military should know they are 100 percent supported by the commander in chief.
Phil Roe

I am convinced that nothing but the hand of God can save us or help us as long as we have our present commander.
James Long

One thing the military does far better than business is train its own leaders. I can't go to IBM and hire a battalion commander. They don't have any.
Colin Powell
Image
To wage war, we need a commander in chief who has made tough calls in tough times and stood up to be held accountable over and over, not first-term senators who've never made an executive decision in their life.
Carly Fiorina
Image
We see a missile here, a bomb there - looks good on CNN. This is nonsense. This is not a strategy of a serious commander in chief.
Ted Cruz
Image
To win that war [with radical Islamic extremists] we need a commander-in-chief, not a professor of law standing at the lectern.
Sarah Palin
Image
An army to be useful must be a unit, and out of this has grown the saying, attributed to Napoleon, but doubtless spoken before the days of Alexander, that an army with an inefficient commander was better than one with two able heads.
William Tecumseh Sherman
Image
The next president of the United States needs to figure one thing out quickly - how to be commander in chief. And I think I could do that.
Lindsey Graham
Image
The president of the United States is the commander in chief, and the people who work with him at the National Security Council are his arm in working with the Defense Department. And, quite frankly, they have responsibility for all of the government. We are one component of the government.
Chuck Hagel
Image
You can't flip-flop and be commander-in-chief.
Newt Gingrich
Image
The business of the English commander-in-chief being first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible) and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
Horatio Nelson
Image
I neither will aspire to nor will I accept, the position of president of the council of state and commander in chief.

There are certain things in war of which the commander alone comprehends the importance. Nothing but his superior firmness and ability can subdue and surmount all difficulties.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Image
Whenever I spoke with anybody who said they did not have a problem in the military it was because their commander treated them well. Every single time it was about the commander as to whether they had a good or bad experience.
