You say Bush was a weak leader. That doesn't relate to my statement which specifies a strong leader.

You say Cheney was a strong leader who required that people under him go along with him or leave. That's the gist of my statement: a strong leader is unlikely to choose subordinates who'll go against him.

Cheney is a good example of the quoted statement, your statement preceding that said a weak leader will hand off. Bush did that, unfortunately he handed off to a sociopath.
