Wes Clark Jr.- Interesting Post on Daily Kos [View All]

[clar]

Without comment, here it is.


Think what you will about who I am and my writing style. Kos, RonK and the rest know who I am.
I'm not trying to injure Dean or Kos with what I've said, I'm merely trying to point out that the anti-Clark hysteria and trolling on these boards is unbelievable.
If you'd like to see what his positions are, go to his new website and read the hundred year vision. Not specific enough for you? Then just wait, learn and listen.
Regarding the comments that his campaign is screwed up and not wowing you yet - need I remind you that he announced 48 hours ago? Contrary to much of the garbage and gossip written about him on this board, the only organization he had behind him prior to the announcement was a blackberry and two cell-phones. It's going to take a few days to get up and running as the campaign needs to be assembled. If his campaign is such a disaster then why is it every thread that he's the subject of stretches into 300 posts? Why is the mighty Wurlizter firing on all pistons to knock him out? Why the vitriol from Dean supporters?
Regarding the DLC,DNC, Clinton paranioa and sockpuppet accusations - seriously people, go outside and get some fresh air. All this talk about "the establishment" is ridiculous. Who is more establishment - a guy (Dean)who grew up on Park avenue or a guy (Clark) who was raised by a single, working mother in Little Rock ? Establishment indeed.
Bill Rhem - you are correct that VP's do not determine the direction of the country. However, it is one seat away from the presidency and the reason he was being looked at by Dean is that he makes up for Dean's weakness - foreign policy and the military (which arguably are the two most important fields for a head of state wartime or no wartime).
