Reply #64: ...Clark is not raising money and speaking out because he wants something.

[Tom Rinaldo]

"What is important to me is that Clark is not raising money and speaking out because he wants something. He wants to see this country living its values,... We will only get good government when honest people are recognized and rewarded on the basis of merit not hype."

Thank you for saying that Donna, for saying all of it. Wes Clark has dedicated his life to serving his country, and has gladly accepted any sacrifice imposed on him in the course of so doing. He was seriously wounded, and returned to active service. Politics are not an end for him, it is the arena in which he can now best serve his country once again, returning honor and stability to America at home and abroad. It is his calling, he sees it as his duty to respond. That is the quality I so yearn to see in our leaders.
