Do you guys really think Kaidan will be a Spectre? I am not so sure. I totally believe Kaidan has the rank and skill to be a Spectre but I am having a hard time imagining Ashley being a Spectre due to her rank. According to Wiki, her title was Operations Chief in Mass Effect 2...Operations Chief to Spectre seems pretty farfetched. I know we try not to lump the two characters together but whether or not the VS is a Spectre would be something I think shared between the two characters. If Bioware decides to make the VS a Spectre, they better have a solid story for Ashley.
Going from what the Salarian Councilor says during Shep's spectreing, a Spectre's already been through the test of battle and ability. Nothing's ever really been said as to what profession a someone's got to be to be concidered. We know Shep qualified from thier background along with the game events up to that point, so I dont' find it a stretch at all for Kaidan or Ashley to also be concidered especially since they also have the been present at taking down Sovereign on thier record.

Now that's what I can dedication! I didn't think it could be done, but I think you may have just tracked down Kaidan's face model. xD He looks very much like him +/- a few stuff here and there.Jhosephine wrote...
Dunno if this guy has been brought up before, but I stumbled upon him by accident and thought he had Kaidan's mouth at least...there was just something about this Libanese male model that made me think of Kaidan. It's not him but still

Kaidan can, no doubt, he has skill and a higher rank. But Ashley has the skill too, and the Spectre's are not Alliance, i'm sure they place skill over rank. In real life, a private in the British army can become a part of the S.A.S if he possessed the skill. Even if rank does matter, Ashley is a chief, she's basically a sergeant, for a soldier that is a very high rank, Kaidan likely joined as a officer, meaning he skipped the enlisted and NCO ranks.
Ps. I seen the Kaidan ME3 pic, he look's bad ass!

Either as the council or one of the council races humans would certainly be pushing for more human Spectres where better to start than with the team that took down Saren? Whether it be Kaidan or Ash that survived. Even if the council refute the Reaper existence Shep's team are still regarded as hero's as they stopped the Geth resistance. I suspect Anderson is simply under strict orders to keep the VS quiet about certain beliefs sort of an 'I believe you but don't shout about it til we can prove it' sort of arrangement.

lol If the kid takes after Shep he/she will be able to handle the pressure...if I was Shep I'd have had nervous break down by now. Of course Kaidan handles the pressure pretty well himself.

Mechanic: Shepard? Wait. I know that name.
Mechanic: Sure, I remember you. You're some type of big Alliance hero.
Kaidan: Commander Shepard. Captain of the Normandy. The first human Spectre. Savior of the Citadel.
Kaidan: You're in the presence of a legend, Delan. And a ghost.
Mechanic: All the good people we lost, and you get left behind. Figures.
Mechanic: Screw this. I'm done with you Alliance types.
Kaidan: I thought you were dead, Shepard. We all did.
Kaidan: I thought you were dead, Commander. We all did.
> It's good to see you again.
Shepard: It's been too long, Kaidan. How've you been?
Kaidan: Is that all you have to say? You show up after two years and just act like nothing happened.
> You sound angry.
Shepard: You don't sound too happy to see me. Something bothering you, Kaidan?
Kaidan: Yeah, something's bothering me. I spent the past two years believing you were dead!
> I was. We can't get into it.
Shepard: A reunion has to wait. Cerberus brought me back to stop attacks like this.
(Jump to *)
Kaidan: I thought we had something, Shepard. Something real. I... I loved you.
Kaidan: Thinking you were dead tore me apart. How could you put me through that?
Kaidan: I would've followed you anywhere, Commander. Thinking you were gone... it was like losing a limb.
Kaidan: Why didn't you try to contact me? Why didn't you let me know you were alive?
> I didn't want to hurt you.
Shepard: I'm sorry, Kaidan. I was clinically dead. It took two years to bring me back.
Shepard: So much time has passed. You've moved on. I don't want to reopen old wounds.
(Jump to **)
> Too much time has passed.
Shepard: I was out for two years. You've moved on with your career and your life. Why reopen old wounds?
**Kaidan: I did move on. At least, I thought I did. But now we've got reports about you and Cerberus.
> I wasn't even conscious!
Shepard: Not my choice. I spent the last two years in some kind of coma while Cerberus rebuilt me.
*Kaidan: You're with Cerberus now? I can't believe the reports were right.
> I have important things to do.
Shepard: You're still with the Alliance. You've turned a blind eye to the problem. But human colonies are disappearing. I'm trying to save them.
Kaidan: Really? Is that what you're doing? Because I saw reports that you were working with Cerberus.
Party Member: <questions reports>
Kaidan: Alliance intel thought that Cerberus might be behind the missing human colonies. They got a tip this colony might be the next one to get hit.
Kaidan: Anderson stonewalled me, but there were rumors that you weren't dead. That you were working for the enemy.
> Cerberus isn't the enemy.
Shepard: Our colonies are disappearing. The Alliance turned its back on them. Cerberus is the only group willing to do something about it.
Kaidan: You can't really believe that! We both know what Cerberus is like. What they're capable of.
> That's why you're on Horizon.
Shepard: Building the defense towers was just a cover story. The Alliance sent you here to investigate me, didn't they?
Kaidan: I was here for Cerberus. You were just a rumor.
> I don't work for Cerberus.
Shepard: Cerberus and I want the same thing: to save our colonies. That doesn't mean I answer to them.
Kaidan: Do you really believe that? Or is that just what Cerberus wants you to think?
Kaidan: I wanted to believe the rumors that you were alive, but I never expected anything like this.
Kaidan: You turned your back on everything we believed in. You betrayed the Alliance. You betrayed me.
Kaidan: You turned your back on everything we stood for!
> I'm not a traitor.
Shepard: Kaidan, you know me. You know I'd only do this for the right reason.
> Look at the big picture.
Shepard: This isn't about me working for Cerberus, Kaidan. Something far more important is at stake.
> Get over it.
Shepard: The past is done. You need to focus on what's happening now.
Shepard: You saw it yourself. The Collectors are targetting human colonies and they're working with the Reapers.
Kaidan: I want to believe you, Shepard. But I don't trust Cerberus. They could be using the threat of a Reaper to manipulate you.
Kaidan: What if they're behind it? What if they're working with the Collectors?
Party Member: <comment about Kaidan's doubts>
> You're too emotional, Kaidan.
Shepard: You're letting how you feel about their history get in the way of the facts.
Kaidan: Maybe. Or maybe you feel like you owe Cerberus because they saved you. Maybe you're the one who's not thinking straight.
> So you won't listen?
Shepard: I can see you won't listen to reason.
Kaidan: You show up after two years and tell me you're working with Cerberus. What does reason figure into any of this?
Kaidan: You've changed. But I still know where my loyalties lie. I'm an Alliance solider. Always will be.
Kaidan: I've got to report back to the Citadel. They can decide if they believe your story or not.
> Don't go. Join me.
Shepard: I could use someone like you in my crew, Kaidan. It'll be just like old times.
Kaidan: No, it won't. I'll never work for Cerberus.
> Goodbye.
Shepard: So long, Kaidan.
Kaidan: So long, Commander. Good luck.
(Jump to ***)
> Fat chance.
Shepard: We both know how that's gonna turn out. The Alliance will try to blame Cerberus just like you did.
Kaidan: A leopard can't change its spots. Cerberus can't be trusted.
Kaidan: Goodbye, Shepard. And be careful.
***Shepard: Joker -- send the shuttle to pick us up. I've had enough of this colony.
I'm not sure if the "So long, Commander." line only triggers with that particular dialogue option, or if the romance flag and gender has something to do with it. Everything else should be accurate.

Well put Funk, I totally agree, Ash would make an excellent Spectre but obviously in a totally different way to Kaidan. I also agree re the military credentials after all Garrus was earmarked as a potential Spectre and wasn't even in the military so the way I see it is it's the skill set that's important not rank in a given organisation and Ashley has certainly demonstrated her skills whilst working with Shepard and no doubt in the interim as well.
Either as the council or one of the council races humans would certainly be pushing for more human Spectres where better to start than with the team that took down Saren? Whether it be Kaidan or Ash that survived. Even if the council refute the Reaper existence Shep's team are still regarded as hero's as they stopped the Geth resistance. I suspect Anderson is simply under strict orders to keep the VS quiet about certain beliefs sort of an 'I believe you but don't shout about it til we can prove it' sort of arrangement.
I think that the council picked them based upon exceptional ability and self reliance if I recall. Both Kaidan and Ash had the exceptional ability from the start but I think they needed to get out from under the shadow of Shepard to really become self reliant. And no doubt they have proven themselves. They were probably sponsered by Anderson the same way he sponsered (if thats the word) Shepard. And at the mention of Garrus...I think he would still make a good Spectre.

I'm not sure if he reverts to the Commander line on a romanced Shep if you choose the neutral response. I'll check my game when I get back home (won't be any time soon), if someone hasn't already done so by then.

ME2 was a great improvement on expressions; I'm almost certain that ME3 won't disappoint in that regard. But yeah, that cross-eyed bit on Horizon was odd to watch. xP
