12. Even if he wants to
The VP does not have the power to send in the troops let alone push the nuke button. That said, there are those that say Cheney is running the show and W is doing what he says. Even if that is true, there is no way we would launch a preemptive nuke strike. I'm not saying that we won't launch a preemptive "everything we have but nukes" strike, but these guys are smart enough to have gotten here so they are smart enough to know the repercussions nukes would have.
