Well said Davinci, but for the life of me I really don't understand the public of the Democratic Party, the criticism that is charged against them that Democrats only know what they are against but not what they stand for, all of the current candidates talk all the good talk but can they walk the walk. Among the candidates none have led men and women in war and won it without the loss of American casualties in combat.
Obviously a brlliant man, well versed in politics- not lies and money- but the art of governing, statesmanship, diplomacy, economics, philosophy, and war. He is the equal of Washington and Eisenhower, and the most qualified candidate for Commander in Chief.
This is the MAN that can and will get us out of Iraq. If he doesn't win in 2008, the next democratic president needs to nominate him at Secretary of Defense. We need a general with experience to help with the mess in Iraq. Plus, I think tons of Republicans would vote for him too. I know with him as President I would feel more secure. I haven't feel secure since Bush has been president much less since since 9/11.
Wes picks up where Gen Eisenhower left off: urging a shift from a war-mongers Military Industrial Complex as a primary base for our economy to a more sustainable health-care-leading, well-educated, clean tech, clean energy economy.
This IS the heart of the Democratic Platform. It's nothing new...but Wes' credibility helps us understand that many in the military earnestly hope for diplomacy and a greener economy.
Whether its Hillary, Barack, John, Al or Wes - next time - Vote D!
I think that the best option for him is to sit out as a candidate and hope that he is chosen as a running mate. I can just see the RNC lambasting Obama or Edwards for their lack of focus on national security and terrorism. Who better to slam such rhetoric than a four-star general with a proven military record?
Wow, I'm surprised at how "I'm running for president"y this sounds.
I just wish there were a way to not just make Clark seem like all the other candidates running right now. Because Clark is definitely not like any other candidate that's ever run for president.
The idealist in me wishes the "new" way can be just like the "old old way". Just talking straight with the American people, no voice over commercials or dirty tricks. I would hope the American people would just totally eat that up.
Maybe he is. I hope so, as he would make an excellent president. Imagine how different the world would be right now if he were president during 9/11. As for him "sounding like he's running for president", so do I when I address people about issues, and there is absolutely no chance of me ever even considering running for office.
Obama/Clark '08! I so want that ticket.

shame he's only polling 1-4% as a potential democrat

That's only because he's kept a low profile. He has got to have learned from last time, and he's a brilliant man; I think he can improve that number.
