Any Wes Clark Threads out there yet?

[Ned_Devine]

if not, I'll start one. I want him to run and I don't care who knows it!

[NMDemDist2]

1. nah, mostly just thread jacks

:rofl:

[benny05]

2. Plenty of them

but join the party.

[Tom Rinaldo]

3. It's that time of the year, isn't it? LOL

Post election campaign withdrawal syndrome. Not that I disagree with you, of course, but, ah, this thread is a little short on specifics so far. Then again it has about as much substance as any one of those poll threads that puts up a proposed ticket and says: "Discuss".

[elocs]

4. After reading the thread title I though, "There is now".

Let the cannibalism begin. I'm not hungry, though.

[Ned_Devine]

5. I'm just seeing what the vibe is out there

[Cameron27]

7. I got a whiff of that vibe

on another thread, and it's only going to get vile around here pretty soon.

Having said that, Clark's the cat's meow :)

[AtomicKitten]

23. or pajamas

:)

[MrSlayer]

6. Plenty.

Nothing wrong with adding another though. Clark is my man as well.

[Monkeyman]

10. Clark and Obama ticket

[The Count]

8. Your secret is safe with me!

[LittleClarkie]

9. That's nice dear, but I prefer a bit more substance in my rah rah threads

A few facts, a speech or two, an explanation at least.

[Ned_Devine]

11. I gotcha...

I was really just trying to see where people were at around here. I don't like to start threads that get flamed. I guess I just like to know that there is a movement out there to get this guy in...rather than another senator. The only senators that ever had a chance at the presidency were both named Kennedy, and sadly enough they were both shot and killed. Since then, no senator has had a chance

[LittleClarkie]

12. Fear not. You are not alone. Many Clarkies here. Just jump right in.

You won't necessarily get flamed for starting a Clark thread, but you will get some flak, as there are also many anti-war folks here, and he's not quite an "out now" guy.

I should say though that the closer we get to the primaries, things will get ... grumpy ... around here. Be prepared.

[Tom Rinaldo]

17. Sage advice LC (unfortunately) n/t

[NMDemDist2]

26. ...grumpy.....

that's the understatement of the year!

:rofl:

[Sparkly]

14. Interesting.

Well, you can see "where people are at around here" by scrolling through the boards and reading the threads.

If you joined in January, I'm sure it hasn't escaped your notice: Yes, General Clark has many supporters here.

I disagree that "the only senators that ever had a chance at the presidency were both named Kennedy."

Belated welcome to DU! :hi:

[Ned_Devine]

21. I actually signed up in January of 2004...

but I lost my password after not going on for a while. So I changed my username and so on and so forth. As for going through all the threads, I'm not patient enough.

27. The "search" function is a very good tool.

It allows you to search all active threads (you can't do "advanced search" because you're not a donor). Just put "Clark" in for keyword, and you can search all of the big forums at once by clicking on "Big Forums (Conference).

There are lots of us Clarkies on here, but there are a few people who really don't like Clark as well.

It's true that people do tend to appreciate threads with a little more substance to them. With Clark, it should not be difficult to find substantive things to post.

I am not anxious to see the candidate wars get going around here again. They were absolutely brutal last time around. :scared:

Anyway, welcome to DU. :hi:

[Jai4WKC08]

13. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

Yep, there are a lot of us around these parts.

[NV1962]

15. Hmmm...?

What a wonderful idea! A thread about Wes Clark!

:P

[Crunchy Frog]

28. Hey NV! It's nice to see you around here again.

:hi:

[Tinksrival]

16. Hi Ned!

:hi: I like your style!

[Ned_Devine]

22. likewise

[Bucky]

18. This post so doesn't deserve a "greatest" recommendation

The problem is, how can you tell when a recommendation is done tongue-in-cheek?

[Tom Rinaldo]

19. True, true n/t

[Maddy McCall]

20. I love Wes!!

Yay for Wes!

:D

[NV1962]

24. It's like Battlestar Clarktica...

...only better.

Starring the evil Pile-ons, a fleet in search of a mythical planet called Earth jumping through more hoops than you can shake a helm stick at...

Wesward Ho! :D

[Donna Zen]

25. News: Wes was on TV today

The subject was NATO and Afghanistan. Curiously, the interviewer stayed away from Iraq. Sometimes he slaps them down, and other times calm reigns. I enjoyed the clip because it was one of those Professor Clark moments.

Clark 11/26

From the background, Clark is now in Little Rock. Although there is a news report that says he will be in the Gulf region 12/5-8 to speak at a conference on regional security.

That's my Clark news for the day.

[Tinksrival]

29. Thank you D Z!

We can always count on you! Off to watch Wes now! :hi:

[Donna Zen]

32. Word of the day

rapprochement

There's no fatigue in the US for helping people non-militarily.

[FrenchieCat]

30. Here are three active ones!

31. Ain't seen one yet. How 'bout you?

;-)

[democrank]

33. Thanks, Ned.

A day without a Clark thread is like a day without sunshine.
