4. Awesome!!!
I saw him when he came up here to Anchorage this past summer.. It was standing room crowds everywhere he went.

I doubt any of the bases here could have found a troop if they tried.. they were ALL at the Clark events!

He was even a huge hit here with Republicans.. :o

Face it.. he's one Democrat who is able to capture the hearts of ALL political parties.. :patriot: :hug:

2. I really hope this man is the next president
I'm resigned to support Hillary if she is the nominee, but I want to campaign for Wes Clark.

7. And the rest of the world
would be pleased too, seeing as he's respected in Europe (NATO) and the Middle East (was at a conference there recently with Bill Clinton).

8. Clark is the man!
He surely would win if he ran '08. I don't care who the wingnuts run.

9. Clark needs to get more people aware of him
I wish he'd do some more national media stuff.

14. I know, I know....
But it ain't easy when the last thing that the Corporate National media wants to do is cover Wes Clark. Too much brutal truth that makes sense against our current BoyKing would be heard...and this would in turn diminish Corporate gains made to date via BushCo.

17. I wish he'd go on the Stern show or somethin

18. I was amazed just now...
AAR news just included a report about General Clark's radio address. They talked about his "impassioned" message on behalf of the troops as a "real response on behalf of the Democrats" to the address given by Pres. Bush which touted American foreign policy and "freedom" around the globe. It was like saying that anyone listening to the two addresses could clealy see the difference in the messages being sent... one deeply respectful of soldiers and veterans, and the other just more drum-banging and chest-pounding. Wow. I'm floored!
