3. Dean vs. Clark threads seem pointless if Dean is considering
Clark as a running mate. Clark appears to be a good match, as Dean came out against the war with Iraq, as did Clark, who is career military. Clark would have better credentials than anyone else that the Democrats would choose, since, of the nine declared Democratic candidates, only Sen. Kerry ever served in the U.S. military, in Vietnam.

The Bush* administration is comprised of ``chicken hawks,'' those who favor military action, but never served in the military. Colin Powell is the only one who saw military action and he was the only one who, initially, favored diplomacy over the use of force.

This a good thread, so you can depend on a kick from me. You make an excellent point. Any Democratic candidate is preferable to the squatter-in-chief currently occupying the White House.

Here are some links to C-Span footage. Most of them are from those who are trying to draft Clark. They admit that they are not in touch with him.
