Has Kucinich made any statements on Clark's entry??

Dennis with congresswoman Loretta Sanchez

1. I like Dennis

IF he doesn't win the nomination (I don't want to be too presumptuous about it), then I think Dennis would make an excellent Secretary of the Interior. Can you imagine the fear struck in the hearts of corporate polluters with Dennis 'in da house'?

2. The MSNBC Embed has something posted the other day

Go the msnbc.com and click on news/politics and look for the embed link, then go to Kucinich.

It basically says Clark's entry doesn't affect his run for presidency in any way. Pretty much saying they appeal to different people...and Clark's run will only add more steam to the Democratic Race for nominee and thus more attention to Kucinich.

3. I’m not looking to confirm the primacy of the Pentagon

Wed Sept 3

And what would the congressman say about a potential split ticket with Wesley Clark? “General Clark has served his country well, but I’m not looking to confirm the primacy of the Pentagon,” Kucinich said. “I have a fundamentally different view.”

Knowing that one of Kucinich's strongest points is true even-handedness for Israel Palestine and just reading this, this clinches it I think:

(Excerpt)

Speaking to the New Democrat Network ((Lieberman's new branch of the DLC since 97 I think)) this year, Clark said that dismantling Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat´s Ramallah headquarters was "a legitimate military objective from their perspective.

"For the Israelis, this is a struggle really for the existence of Israel," Clark said in remarks quoted on a support group´s Web site.

Clark is also tough on neighboring Arab states, expecting more from them in nudging the Palestinians toward peace.

He has said he would like to see Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia in a "contact group" similar to the alliance that Serb-friendly Russia joined to force the Serbs to back down in Kosovo. He blames Saudi Arabia for allowing extremist strains of Islam to spread.

The former NATO leader also opposes any active international role in policing the West Bank until the political situation is settled, a view that Israelis — nervous at relinquishing control to foreign troops on their borders — would appreciate.

4. This Is A Little Disturbing

"One of the leaders of the Draft Clark campaign said Clark´s strength on foreign policy would neutralize an advantage President Bush now has with Jews, and would bring the debate back to domestic issues, where the Bush administration is weaker with Jews."

If you can nuetralize Bush with pro-Israeli Jews, you have to be pretty darn hawkish. I can't imagine these people are talking about Tikkun.
