War wohl nichts mit der großen griechischen Macht in USA

Kein Wunder , seine Vorfahren erlitten das selbe Schicksal wie dies der Albaner unter eine unmenschlichen Herrschaft welche kein normaler Mensch leiden kann

Eine Orthodoxe Gesellschaft in USA hahhaha wie Mistkäfer leben diese dort und schwören auf ein Land USA treue , welche es garnicht mag

Wieso?

hahahahahhaha

[MariatktoDuma]

Siberia-jail for Wesley on lifetime!!!!!! Bloody Butcher of newborn children with DU-bombs!

[MariatktoDuma]

Wesley, You are a Butcher from Vietnam. If You are president then You will send 6 miliards of people where you send by radioactive and cluster bombs 3-years old Milica Racic from Beograd! Bastard! Children-murderer! Warmonger! Bloody Butcher! Your politics is VIOLENCE! Your "culture" is VIOLENCE! Dracula! You can not rule the world. You can not your own mind and sence, Wesley Clarke! Go to a doctore! You need terapy!

[sdsunandfun]

Liberals are cowards

[sockenekel]

usa is certainly losing its marbles you have a guy like gen.clark and you vote for bush lol the monkey on strings.

[PureAlbanianSoul]

Wesley Clark...is not only an American son but it's this World's son. He is not only an American patriot but a Human Being patriot. He is the best example of a great humane leader. He's just, moral, professional...a genius by all means. Wesley Clark is my lifetime IDOL not just because he done his bit to stop the serbian genocide but because he's an example of a PERFECT HUMAN BEING. Long live Wesley Clark...the pride of America and the civilized world!

[pedjasta]

ma smrdljiva picka

[bryannforClark]

amazingcarazon maybe it's your head that is empty by your knee jerk reaction. You can disagree with Gen.Clark's assessment but there is no need for you to slander the man who bled and fought for our country for 38 years.

What have you done to our country sir/maam? Nothing that's right nothing remote or close to what have this man endured. So shut the fuck up.

[bryannforClark]

I'LL TAKE GEN.CLARK'S RECORD OVER ANYBODY OVER JOHN MCCAIN. FIRST MCCAIN IS OF AND FROM A VERY PRIVILEGE FAMILY. A SON OF an Admiral so he was very well connected. Wes Clark on the other hand had to rely on his skills which is quite extraordinary his courage.

McCain and Clark served honorably and gave their all to their nation. But just because Mccain got shot down and captured it does not give him a leg up on Wes Clark. Just because Gen.Clark only got shot 4 times, almost bled to death.

[bryannforClark]

Now easy with the swiftboating here buddy, Why are you acting so fucking hypocrytical here? You are trying to impugne the man and his credentials? You got some fucking nerve, I get it most of the Repubs thinks that they have the lock down on the military so if you are a Democrat you are not a real military guy but a wuss?

Really? I served my country IN OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM I DID TWO TOURS ENDING IN 2006. Participated in the attack to take out the scumbag SADDAM. I am a DAMN PROUD DEMOCRAT.

[amazingcarazon]

Yes, he does look good in uniform, but his head his empty and truly a real scum bag.. This yellow belly turncoat is a coward. No wonder he was fired from the position he held at his last known duty station in Europe. His mouth is larger than world oceans. His head his bigger than the skies. He's America's coward with no brains and is a typical democrat. Just plain ignorant.

[bryannforClark]

Of all the potential V.P.'s for the Democrats who amongst them can rival this person's Resume?

Duty, Honor, Country not only the motto of and for West Pointers but should be the motto of all the Americans.

[Qaf01]

man I have never been a fan of clark but he has is a original american boi

obama/clark08 good old american bois

[CytokineJames]

Great job on this video! Did Wesley Jr. write it? I'm hoping he did.

[ton2283ton]

Here is the person fit to be our next Vice President of the Great United States of America. A man that have lived the motto of Duty, Honor, and Country.

There is no better candidate in the Democratic Party to be named as Barak Obama's V.P. and I hope with his wisdom and foresight he will choose this very esteemed person and that is Gen.Wesley K. Clark.

[frostbitewinterwind]

Thank you Sir for you love of this country and the love of our fellow man...Do onto others as you would like them to do unto you..And you are your brothers keeper...Sir you have shown you are everything to be admired and A TRUE AMERICAN ACCORDING TO THE IDEA OF WHAT THIS COUNTRY STRIVES TO BE..THANK YOU>>>

[frostbitewinterwind]

I would like to point out to you ..

That Real Americans dont run down true proven men of honor and valor..

I can understand you might have a different way in which you would do thing's ..but to take someone like this man and say what you did is something an enemy of America would say...And maybe I assume to much..John Wayne like George Bush dodge the service when his country needed him most...so maybe your a coward . Like most of your type are..

[frostbitewinterwind]

I would like to take this time to address castorT64..It's a shame that you do not think for yourself,,This man is what Republicans such as John Wayne,Ronald Reagan.And others that talk about real American Hero's and what there about,..He's was a good child,..And has shown real leadership instead of overbearing bluster....And he has worked to the top rank of the armed forces,What I dont understand is how after a life time of leadership (YOU) think he now follows..are you really that simple

[bryannforClark]

Bloody damn good General and a very humble nice human being, I am proud to have known and met this great American. If I could emulate a person in this world I would pick Gen.Wes Clark he is the man of utmost integrity and character.

All the naysayers here have their own agendas, and I say let them be, all great men have detractors because great men always invokes resentment, envy and jealousy. Gen.Clark sir I salute you from my father who served and my grandpa who fought against the Japanese.

[CastorT64]

Well, Wes, it looks like Hilly has lost this election. Are you kissing Obama's butt now? Hmmmmm?

[pooptalkerlive]

Wesley Clark is a great man!!!! A 4 star general,first in his class at West Point,a Rhoads Sholar. A presidential medal winner,the prestigous Bronze star, the purple heart,many more elite militray medals. Had the southern command, supreme allied commander of europe, streets with his name in Alabama and Kosvo. Plus he freed Kosvo from a dangerous dictator and murder. This man did his job and is a hero.

[24therough]

This man is about the best the U.S. has to offer. To have worked in between the many different attitudes and political idealisms is unique in the globalized World. Good on the man, I am sure the previous nasty comments were made by personal agendas moreover than world Peace.

This man has the integrity that the Americans I know stand for and represent. He seems to have the courage to stand out in the front window and speak his mind and represent the values of the American people.

[KerouacOnTheRoad]

CLARK is a WAR CRIMINAL. He MURDERED over 2000 Serbian Christians and he assisted ATF killers in the MURDER of 77 people at WACO. You have an appointment before JESUS CHRIST, Mr Clark, and He will judge you for the MURDERS you have participated in. Enjoy the time you have left Clark because JUDGMENT DAY for YOU is very near.

[WesClark08]

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:

There is only ONE way now to STOP the war being planned against Iran:

SUPPORT Ron Paul for President.

We here at the WesClark08 channel are VERY disappointed with Wes's decision not to RUN and even more disturbed by his endorsement of Hillay Clinton. Hillary is in bed with AIPAC and is working with Joe Lieberman to attack Iran.

STOP war on IRAN!

We at WesClark08 are now proud to endorse:

RON PAUL for President '08!!!

[islamonly1]

You are the only person that I wil vote in this country, right now....

[JoeMomma2002]

Fucking half jew.

We need less Jews in Government, trust me.

[CastorT64]

Wes is a poster boy for everything that's wrong with the Officer Corps. Everyone knew that he was Bubba's Butt Boy while Bill was in the White House. Now, Wes is pimping for Hillary. What a surprise.

I can hear Wes now, "If you get elected, give me a job Hilly! Please, please, please, please."

[pooptalkerlive]

[CastorT64]

The Dim Congress has an approval rating of about 9%. Hmmmmmmm, I guess the Dims were wrong in thinking that stabbing the troops in the back would be popular with the American people.

[grazon]

Congress has a low rating because of the Republican minority that's keeping us from declaring victory in Iraq.

[CastorT64]

Wes Clark is a Clinton General who is pimping for George "Heil Hitler" Soros.

Wes, the troops knew that you were a butt-kissing joke when you were in the Army, and they know that you are a butt-kissing joke now.

[grazon]

You pretend to be an Iraq War Veteran.

[CastorT64]

Pecking order in the military (from highest to lowest)

1. Law-abiding soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines.

2. Murders

3. Rapists

4. Pedophiles

5. Clinton Generals (Wes Clark, Batiste, Eaton, etc.)

You can't get any lower than a Clinton general.

[grazon]

You pretend to be an Iraq War Veteran.

[WesClark08]

WATCH MY VIDEOS and see why WES CLARK is the very best person to be PRESIDENT in '08.

We as Americans deserve a MUCH higher standard of leadership, insight, and integrity than George W. Bush.

IMAGINE...

**** WES CLARK for PRESIDENT '08 ****

IT'S POSSIBLE.

[boyboy142]

Gore/Clark. I need it.

[WesClark08]

Why not Clark for President? No other Democrat has anywhere near as much appeal across party lines with Republicans and independents (and Veterans too). He is the only anti war canidate that can win over "security" voters, and show them how Iraq has made us more unsafe, and make them feel SAFE. He is from the SOUTH (important). He would WIN in a historic landslide. No other Democrat can. Sadly, the hard part for him is getting the Democratic nomination. Is the goal for Democrats to WIN in '08?

[mccormickaj]

RUN WES RUN

[bobstride]

President Clark 08!!!!!!

[cammcharg]

President Clark in 2008!!!

Go to securingamerica dotcom!  :)

[BattleofTours732]

Veterans! The SOROS Group, who pays for these VOTEVET ads is in favor of total gun confiscation, legalization of drugs (marijuana, Cocaine, and others), they are for actual negotiations and appeasement with terrorist groups, abandonment of Israel to the terrorists in the Middle East, slashing the American military budget in half, much higher taxes, Hillary Health Care, and 100% OPEN BORDERS. They are connected to Communist party groups. Get out, now!

[BattleofTours732]

Ask your friends about George Soros's time with the Nazi Hitler Youth in World War II.

[grazon]

Back to your lie about Soros being in the Hitler Youth?

[cammcharg]

Don't bother wasting your time replying to that nutjob who's so obsessed with that whole Soros deal. He hangs himself and destroys any trace of credibility by totally plastering these comment pages with his weird, fanatic, rants. You can't win an argument with a retard like that. They're unable to acknowledge facts or use reason. Pretty sad, actually. Take it easy, man.

[BattleofTours732]

Wesley Clark is bought and paid for by George Soros and the Shadow Party. Ask your friends about Soros's time with the Nazi Hitler Youth in World War II. Clark is a pawn of THE SHADOW PARTY

[grazon]

Stop lying Soros was never part of the Hitler Youth.

[redfirekla]

Clark is the man he is an itilleget man he led the u.s in the balkans with a clear plan not a single u.s causuality from hostile fire. Kosovo is what is because of people like him, HOPEFULLY HE WILL BECOME THE NEXT PRESIDENT THERE IS NO ONE WHO IS MORE FIT FOR THE JOB THEN HIM "AMERICA DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE AGAIN VOTE FOR CLARK REMEMBER THAT IN KOSOVO HE PLANNED EVERYTHING SO WELL THAT NOT EVEN A SINGLE U.S CASUALITY" HE ALLWAYS THINKS MANY STEPS AHEAD...

[matiananaaa]

i only know that he is very hansome

[ramadan77]

thank you mister wesley clark. from an albanian in albania

[ThrustMaster02]

This guy has an excellent track record in foreign intervention. Him and Clinton are the only ones who could solve Iraq, assertively.

[simonjayrocker]

Brilliant guy

[LilaMae217]

Wesley Clark makes me care about politics. He is an amazing person, and hopefully will be our next president.

[milosmili]

Before you vote just to let you know he supports Albanian terrorism in Kosovo and is been on their pay list. Helped terrorists get weapons to murder innocent civilians. Member od Scull and Bones. At first a very pleasant person but inside he's just another warmonger.

[hfjai]

I'd hope to think any rational person reading here realizes that NOT ONE word of what you've written is true.

Clark led the NATO alliance which, after every attempt at diplomatic resolution, used military force to STOP the murder and dislocation of over a million and a half people. He did it without a single allied combat casualty and fewer than 500 civilian deaths.

Do I even need to deny the nonsense about Albanian terrorism, or point out that there is no Scull and Bones at West Point?

[joshuakerns76]

He was yanked because he was willing to tell it like it is and toe the line. If he runs in 2008 I am going to vote for him.

[ReluctantRedneck]

I like what I hear.

[dochara]

Wes Clark will be a great American President.

[siliconmonk]

Why don't we take a look at Bush's service record? How about Cheney's 5 deferments from service in Vietnam?

[rogersnowden]

Having been in the military has propoganda value, which is all that matters to Democrats.

Leftists who actually were in the service are obsessed with comparing military service records. Except Kerry, of course, who prefers to hide his for some reason. ;-)

Those on the Left must advertise their service, because they know voters doubt their willingness to defend America.

Whether you agree with Bush or not, his determination to defend this nation is not in doubt.

[siliconmonk]

i think it is in doubt. the CIA's Al'Qaida unit has been shutdown, there was (is still) no strategy after deposing Saddam Hussein in Iraq, and the NIE report clearly stating that we are producing more Terrorists than destroying them.

[hfjai]

This country is in FAR greater danger than ever before, thanks to BushCheney & Co. It could be due to gross incompetence -- I'm sure that's part of it -- but I tend to think it's mostly because they put politics over the good of the nation.

[bobstride]

Hey, wes clark is the man for the job. Yaa, Prestina looks like a thorn, though I doubt that he ordered on attack, in a news report it was to send troops the block the runway to stop Russian airplanes. The Russians were Serbian "allies" and they came into Kosavo by themselves. Those 200 soldiers deserted their operation in Bosina to come into Serbia to fragment the peace settlement.

[thomasjay112]

How can Repubs defend our nation when they're not even willing to defend our children?

[rogersnowden]

Not that you would make political hay of the Foley matter. No, you would never do that.

After all, it's about the kids, right?

When it's a Democrat, it's "consensual sex". When a Republican, it's rape. At least Foley did the right thing and crawled into a hole. A Democrats becomes defiant and claims "gay rights". And gets a promotion out of the deal.

[thomasjay112]

It's not about Foley, it's about the fact that the Republicans in charge knew he was a risk to children for at least a year--and by some reports for as long as 11 years--and they did NOTHING. They would have rather kept this a secret and protected an incumbent Congressman rather than protect the welfare of children in their charge. Unconscionable.

[thomasjay112]

And Foley did the right thing? He only "did the right thing" because he was confronted about his emails and IM's on a national news program. Doing the right thing would be to have never approached underage pages for sexual favors in the first place.

[rogersnowden]

Of course, he did wrong. No dispute there. The difference is, when a Democrat boinked a 17 year old page, that Congressman not only did not resign, he was promoted to a committee chairmanship.

Democrats absolutely have no moral authority in this matter. No excuse for Foley, but Democrats best be careful. Someone out there may decide to create an interesting video chronicalling the history of the Democratic Party.

[rogersnowden]

If we believe the press-- a dubious proposition, granted-- then many people, Democrats and press included, knew about Foley.

So, why hold this information? Why not publish it last August? Or a year ago?

Unconscionable, as you say.

On the other hand, we might doubt the press. ABC, for example, got the facts all wrong on this first case. Maybe when the facts come out, the picture will change.

I doubt the Democrats actually want this investigated.

[soulnibbler]

Why not publish it last august or a year ago? Because us americans have the attention span of a retarded gnat. Maybe we should have elections every other month...

[rogersnowden]

"...especially right-wing chickenhawks who would wet their pants if they ever so much as heard a shot fired in anger."

Democrats and other Leftists always pull the term "chickenhawk" out to cover their own unwillingness to defend this nation.

You have no idea who I am. But you make it very clear who and what you are.

As I said, please encourage Clark to run. We on the right need a break from serious campaigning.

:-)

[siliconmonk]

actually you make it quite clear you are a neocon shill.

[rogersnowden]

I am no shill. I speak entirely for myself. And I am not a "neocon", having been a conservative since the Goldwater days.

But thanks for reading. And pease do support Clark.

[siliconmonk]

although Goldwater was not directly a neocon, he was certainly not without his hawkish viewpoints. the fact that he so vehmently supported McCarthy should ring alarm bells to anyone regardless of their political party. comments like 'lets lob one into the mens room of the kremlin' should be proof enough of his right-wing extremism which would later become one of founding tennents of the neoconservative movement.

[siliconmonk]

it's a slippery slope to say Goldwater was not a neocon when his views would become the cadence for the goose-step

of the neoconservative movement.

[rogersnowden]

The "neo" in neocon means "new". It is meant to refer to people who once inhabited the Left, but become Conservative later on. Goldwater was never a Leftist.

McCarthy has been vilified for decades because he advertised the fact that there were USSR spies in our government. And he was right.

[hfjai]

Is English your second language?

Neo-con refers to the new direction that the conservative movement has taken, not the personal history of the neo-cons themselves. Dick Cheney is a neo-con, and he sure never "inhabited the Left."

I will agree that Goldwater was never a neo-con. But if he were alive today, Goldwater would probably be a Democrat.

[hfjai]

"Unwillingness to defend this nation"??  That's a laugh. I'm retired military, so is my husband, and our son is in the military now.

As far as I can tell, all the chickenhawks come from the GOP side of the fence. Eager for war, but only so long as it's other people, or their kids, doing the fighting. And dying.

I have no respect for any chickenhawk.

[texdcd]

It always amuses me when someone brings up military service as a badge of expertise. By your age and being a female (I'm guessing)...the only shots you have ever heard fired in anger was at the rifle range! Maybe you donned chem-gear due to a "Hail Mary" scud in Riyadh, but I even doubt that scenario! Can you say REMF...

[hfjai]

It amuses me (but does not surprise) to see yet another right-winger who apparently can't read. I didn't bring up my military service as "a badge of expertise" but because I was accused of being "unwilling to defend this nation."

You don't say what your great contribution has been, but the only thing lower than a chickenhawk is a vet who denigrates the service of other vets for reasons of pure partisanship. You not only betray the nation, but your brothers (and yes, sisters) in arms as well.

[texdcd]

"wet their pants if they ever so much as heard a shot fired in anger."

That's what I was talking about...warrior!

[texdcd]

Actually...I'm apolitical in terms of my duty and I serve with women and left-leaning men. By the way I have flown in 2x sand-box, WW Kosovo, and Afgan. I don't denigrate my brothers and sisters in arms...just the rest of you who use specifics that you know nothing about!

[texdcd]

Nothing sickens me more than the vets who constantly pull the "service of my country" card. Generally, they are the people who were looking for "Uncle Sugar" to give them a free ride with a pension and free housing/medical care! If the shoe fits...

[pkspiegel]

General Clark could have made a fortune in the private sector. He was always bright, good-looking, and ambitious. That he chose to serve his country instead is a blessing for which we should all be grateful.

[grazon]

exspyguy you're a loser who will never command anything.

[rogersnowden]

NATO commanders have never been selected for their combat leadership skills, regardless of "the book". History shows that. Alexander Haig, for an obvious example.

Nevertheless, you guys need to run him again. Please.

[hfjai]

You don't know what you're talking about. When Clark took command of NATO, he had far more tactical command time than any of his peers. He was NEVER a "political general" as you right-wingers would have us believe -- especially right-wing chickenhawks who would wet their pants if they ever so much as heard a shot fired in anger.

[rogersnowden]

His people in Vietnam thought otherwise.

I don't know of another NATO commander who was yanked out early, even by weeks. That job is entirely political, as I said. Not a combat command at all. So, when they went to battle, Clark was hardly prepared.

Yet, the insubordination is as bad a reflection on him as it is on NATO itself.

[hfjai]

And what do you know of his "people" in Vietnam? I know of one who appeared on the campaign trail with him who seemed to think he was more than ok. I have NEVER heard of any other enlisted men who knew Clark in Vietnam, but if you can name some names, I'd love to hear 'em.

There were MANY of his former subordinates from later commands who were on board during the campaign.

[hfjai]

As for NATO, of course it is political. Always has been, since Eisenhower's day. For that matter, so is CENTCOM. All four star billets are political. And Clark was removed from command (but not relieved) for purely political reasons. But NATO/EUCOM is also a combatant command, and was so during NATO's first and only war. Which Clark won. The result speaks for itself.

[rogersnowden]

No, CENTCOM is a combat command. Combat commanders are chosen for their combat leadership skills.

Clark was assigned to NATO because he had political skills, not because he was any sort of respected combat commander.

NATO only got involved in one shooting match, and that was under Clark. Yes, NATO won. Sort of. The press does not talk about the genocide NATO permitted and assisted, so we certainly would not want to besmirch Clark his glory.

Seriously, push his candidacy. Make it easy for us.

[hfjai]

"Brought up in the service"? But never served, right?

EUCOM (NATO) and CENTCOM are both considered combatant commands. That's by the book; you can look it up. So is SOUTHCOM. Clark commanded that too.

Clark was widely respected within the military for both his tactical and strategic experience. He had more command time when he got NATO than Franks had when he got CENTCOM.

[hfjai]

Two months before. Out of 36, and well after the war was won.

I guess you know nothing of allied politics. The Pentagon protested Jackson's insubordination, but they couldn't do anything about it either.

Schwartzkopf retracted his criticism of Clark when he found out Shelton was working for Edwards. Would you like a list of the many senior generals who thought Clark was one of the best officers ever?

[rubyinparadise]

The Dems could not possibly do better than to run General Clark in 2008. I hope he is willing!

[DonnaJohn]

This is a list of rightwing talking points aka LIES. Shelton when called on the carpet said that what he said was political since Shelton was working for Edwards. Political? This says much about Shelton, and nothing about Clark. Clark was not fired. The Rove remark was a joke. Get it? Joke. And Clark was correct about the airport since what he ordered had been approved by Clinton and Blair.

[rogersnowden]

"Shelton when called on the carpet..."

Called on the carpet? He was retired by then. Who "called him on the carpet"?

No, the firing was no joke. He was indeed called back early from his command. A huge slap in the face. End of career, too.

[DonnaJohn]

hfjai has answered re Shelton. Shelton was retired when he made that comment, Shelton is not a person of honor. As for ending NATO two months early: it was all about Cohen, Shelton and their buddy Ralston, and they lie they told to Clinton.

[hfjai]

All lies. Clark didn't order the Brits to confront the Russians (see above). And he wasn't fired for that incident, but continued to serve in command for another 10 months. Shelton was working for John Edwards when he attacked Clark's integrity -- there was nothing but praise back in 2000 when Clark retired.

[rogersnowden]

I was brought up in the service. I know the culture. Generals *all* get praise upon retirement. Say nothing till the bastard is safely out of the way.

Generals are their own club. Even as they stab each other in the back, they tend to praise in public. Hence the weirdness of Shelton's criticism... yet it's tone was decidedly muted.

[hfjai]

But it was still a lie. Shelton was requested to repeat his statements against Clark in testimony at the Hague. He declined, saying "it was just politics." And so it was, since Shelton was working for the Edwards campaign at the time. It is Shelton's integrity that is questionable, not Clark's.

[hfjai]

That's a total lie. The Russians did not hold the airport. NATO did. Clark ordered the Brit commander to move vehicles onto the airfield to block the arrival reinforcements. It was the the Brit Jackson who was an insubordinate (and possibly drunk) jackass... but leave it to a Repub to take the foreign general's side over an American when it suits his partisan purpose. That's the most important thing, isn't it?

[exspyguy]

General Wesley Clark, Nato's supreme commander, immediately ordered 500 British and French paratroopers to be put on standby to occupy the airport.

''I called the [Nato] Secretary General [Javier Solana] and told him what the circumstances were,'' General Clark tells the BBC programme Moral Combat: Nato at War.

''He talked about what the risks were and what might happen if the Russian's got there first, and he said: 'Of course you have to get to the airport'.

[exspyguy]

General Jackson: Backed by UK Government

''I said: 'Do you consider I have the authority to do so?' He said: 'Of course you do, you have transfer of authority'.''

But General Clark's plan was blocked by General Sir Mike Jackson, K-For's British commander.

"I'm not going to start the Third World War for you," he reportedly told General Clark during one heated exchange.

[exspyguy]

General Jackson tells the BBC: ''We were [looking at] a possibility....of confrontation with the Russian contingent which seemed to me probably not the right way to start off a relationship with Russians who were going to become part of my command.''

Russian plans

The Russian advance party took the airport unopposed. The world watched nervously.

[hfjai]

The BBC account is incorrect, probably based on Jackson's CYA after the fact. He was, afterall, their dog in the fight (and sad commentary of you repubs to take his word over the Americans who were there). But you don't have to leave it to anyone's word. Look at the results. The Russians never did take the airfield, because Clark blocked reinforcements by getting Hungary and Bulgaria to deny use of their airspace -- riskier than his orginal plan, but thankfully it worked.

[bobstride]

Who are you guys? Show some respect. General Clark is one of the greatest leaders in the world today, shame on the first few posters. As far as I know he brought peace to the Balkans and they are now on the road to recovery. Back in the Clinton years, not when Bush and his cronies are running the show, all they do is increase violence. There mistakes have created a diplomatic issue that the western world will have to face for many years to come. Shame on you Bush supporters! Have a heart!

[mkline718]

The son saying that they had to do without should be cutout.  Think of what the enlisted make and he is complaining about how officers live...spoiled brat.

[lakechautauqua]

Let's draft him to be the next Commander in Chief.

[KarenSandefur]

Thanks for putting this up in here. I hadn't seen it in a while and, now that he's not actually in a campaign for office, I'm looking at it with fresh eyes. His life is sort of what we all like to think of as the typical American life. It's very inspiring.

[honeystung]

Oh! I'd so dearly love to have Gert Clark as First Lady. Unlike Laura Bush, Gert Clark would not be actively campaigning against a female combat-wounded pilot who lost both her legs in a war she & we didn't have to fight- sent there by Bush Jr.! I mean Tammy Duckworth - check out Duckworth for Congress online. Can you imagine a sitting First Lady doing this? Well, Laura Bush is. Simply disgusting. And unprecendented.

[Hefeweizen]

i like how they try to pass off laura bush as a quiet librarian.

she was a raging alcoholic and killed a family while drunk driving before she was 1st lady.

[beetjuice]

I mean he defeated Serbia with only 1 US casualty and total international support. Who can say that about Iraq?

[beetjuice]

Clark- one of the most successful commanders ever.

[Va4Clark]

Great bio-pic of the man who should be our next President.

[DvCM]

What is the matter with you, Trailertrash? This video gives one true, documented fact after another. If you have an objection, or you know other facts, why don't you just write about that? The badly spelled belittlement of a commenter only makes you look like a jerk. This is a free country, remember?

Question is, will the Democratic party have the good sense to nominate General Clark? If not, what do we do? Support an Independent candidacy? I'm willing!

[kevin22262]

No to an independant run. That would nader all of us for another 4 years.

[GrammaMe]

Good point. I guess those of us who believe in General Clark will just have to get the word out and work hard to win a bunch of primaries. That assumes, of course, that he is willing to run in 2008.

It would be great to have a president who takes the military seriously. He was great in IOwa City in 2004.

Homer: I could have had a lower middle class-made-good, genius IQ, multi-lingual, Rhodes Scholar, wounded in battle decorated War Hero, rebuilder of the Army (with Colin Powell), economics instructor at West Point, leader of NATO in its only war with zero casualties for President.

Bart: But you picked the combat-evading, flight-grounded, Guard duty missing, multiple-business failure, illiterate, fundamentalist cokehead!

Homer (slaps forehead): Doh!

I tried to post this video to my YouTube site but they limit me to 10 min per vid. So... how did you get this uploaded? :)

Wesley is a one in a billion. Intelligence, knowledge, experience, honesty, compassion, charm, dedication to this country and all it's people are exhibited in this magnificent man!.

Clark - I forgot courage and strength (mentally and physically).

General Wesley K. Clark -- International Leader.

If this country is meant to survive, Gen. Clark will be our next President.

[atonalmusic]

This will drive the freepers nuts. Good news!

[dejahthoris]

My Mom and I loved him last election, but he needed to use the strategies that made him a great General to win the election. He got started too late anyway, and did not build momentum. But he is my favorite.

[honeystung]

Ah! General Clark really is greeted abroad and at home as a liberator!!! The General always puts his love of country ahead of mere partisan politics. He's a Uniter, not a Decider!

[motonegros]

Wes Clark - Good man, great leader.

Bushbots hate him for some reason.

[TheDailyBackground]

Wes rocks. Can't imagine why anyone would rate this video down.

Wesley Clark, is a True American. He has Democratic values. Republicans can't call him unpatriotic. He will be great to lead this nation.
