Re: Who Is John B Poindexter?
Does anyone know if John B Poindexter is in anyway related to John M Poindexter?
John M Poindexter is a retired US Navy Admiral who served as President Reagan's National Security adviser.
Back in 2002, this Poindexter (John M) proposed a "total Information Awareness"program to spy on American citizens.
The American people were repulsed, Congress defunded the idea in 2003, and they dropped it, or so we thought.
Revelations from more recent times prove that it continued but just went underground until Snowden again brought it to public attention.
So, again, I'm wondering if this is the same man or a relative as the only difference in the name given is the middle initial?

Thanks, T
My antennas went up too, when I saw the Poindexter name connected with Scalias death.
In doing a little research, I found they are not the same person.
Looking at facial features,
John B appears to be more tall and slender at 70 years of age,
While John M has a wider face and a more of a stout frame, from this Navy photo cirica 1985
and more recently,
Don't know if they are related or not.
