It's College of William and Mary, and though founded by Anglicans, is no longer a sectarian or religiously-affiliated school. [[User:Boethius|Boethius]] 20:49, 27 March 2007 (EDT)

I couldn't get Image Upload to work. Can somebody else upload an image for this? It'd look much more professional with one. [[User:PhilipS|PhilipS]] 20:56, 27 March 2007 (EDT)

==Spread of Democracy, et al==

We should restore the text about the spread of Democracy. It's what Gates is all about, which is why he's a great American, which is why Conservapedia should have an article on him. [[User:PhilipS|PhilipS]] 21:14, 27 March 2007 (EDT)

PhilipS: /* Secretary of Defense */

'''Robert Michael Gates''' is the twenty-second [[Secretary of Defense]]. He has served under the second [[Bush]] administration since December 18, 2006, taking office after the resignation of the previous Secretary, [[Donald Rumsfeld]].

==Early Life==

Gates was born on September 25, 1943, in Wichita, Kansas. He graduated from the [[College of William and Mary]] in [[Virginia]]. While attending William and Mary, he was very involved in the [[Young Republicans]], and even became the chapter's President. He went on to receive a graduate degree from [[Indiana University]] and a Ph.D. from [[Georgetown University]].

==Early Public Service==

Gates served in the [[United States]] [[Air Force]] in [[Vietnam War|Vietnam]] from 1967 to 1969, a time when much of the rest of the nation had abandoned the strategy of [[Containment]] abroad. Immediately thereafter, he began working with the [[Central Intelligence Agency|CIA]] as an investigator.

==Director of the [[Central Intelligence Agency]]==

Gates was first nominated for the position of Director in 1987. However, due to negative media spin about the [[Iran-Contra Affair]], in which Gates helped the spread of [[Democracy]], the [[Senate]] stated that they would not ratify his appointment.

However, in 1991, [[George H. W. Bush]] renominated Gates due to his hard work and staunch [[American values]]. This time, a more responsible [[Congress]] approved, and Gates won the appointment he had earned. True to the [[American Dream]], Gates had worked his way up from the position of entry-level investigator all the way up to Director.

==Secretary of Defense==

On November 8, 2006, [[George W. Bush]] followed in his father's footsteps by appointing Gates to the position of [[Secretary of Defense]] after [[Donald Rumsfeld|Donald Rumsfeld's]] resignation. He has since used this position to continue to fight the [[War in Iraq|The War in Iraq]].

==Other Appointments==

Gates is presently the head of the [[National Eagle Scout Association]].

==Other Honors==

Gates is an [[Eagle Scout]], and has won the [[Distinguished Intelligence Medal]] on three separate occasions.
