Giuliani's Associates a reason he should not be elected President

Rudy Giulani's friend a former buisness partner Bernard Kerik was indicted today by the Federal Government. Kerik was rumored to be corrupt long before this indictment and he is not the only Rudy associate to have this problem. Russell Harding and Charles Hughes both went to prision for embezzling money. Many others have either been suspected or fired for similar misconduct. The one thing that relates these associates is the Giuliani put them in their positions. Now that Kerik has been indicted Rudy will not say if he would pardon him or not if he were to be convicted. Judging by Rudy's past he most likely would pardon him and maybe even give him a job. In the case of Alan Placa who was fired from the Catholic diocese in New York for covering up some Priest's sexual assault on young boys. Rudy has since hired him on at one of his companies.

All of this puts a cloud over Rudy Giuliani's Presidential Run. Many overtime have asserted that Rudy may well have known what was going on. Even if he did not he has done little to distance himself from those that were corrupt. This is too much for a man who want to be President of the United States. Rudy needs to come clean on what he knew and when as well as what he would do in the future to hold similar associates responsible along with a commitment to never pardon any of these associates. Then and only then should he even be considered for our Nation's highest office.
