NYTweety-hater : Whoa, Wes nailed it again on MTP. He would make one hell of a a secretary defense.
Defcon4: Never happen, Tweet. He's gotta wait 10 years after his military service.
Cheyney-ac: Yeah but he'd make a great VP.

"We are there at the sufferance of the Iraqui people - if they don't want us there we'll have to go" - that a while ago. Today he was more forceful, predicting "a catastrophic abortion of the mission - ttwo to one - unless we change course"

3. I miss your point on this thread: are you denying Clark has to wait 10 yr |

variations of the same "Wes Clark should be VP/Wes can't be VP for 10 yrs" conversation. Actually, I thought this at the lounge and messed up. I thought I was being funny. I dont know what i thought. Time for coffee...

5. Who said he can't be SOD? |

Whatever will we do?

7. by law he must be out of military 10 years prior to eligible for SOD... |

I think this has come up about a zillion times on DU, but of course it is not something that is widely known... thus, I guess the frustration of the original poster, who has seen this comment every time Wes Clark's name comes up. No one is arguing he would be an excellent SOD, just trying to educate on the eligibility requirements.
