Although he would shift the priorities and expenditures of the military budget.

Of all of our candidates, only Kucinich (up to 15%) and Clark (up to 25%) have proposed actually cutting the military budget, in addition to shifting priorities and expenditures (less on weapons, more on homeland security and personnel).

Only Clark has spoken of the military as a "want machine" and indicated that you need to stop feeding it.

Finally, IMO, only Clark has the creds necessary to actually push this agenda through a Republican-controlled Congress.
