There’s speculation on the US site, VP Watch, this evening that Barack Obama might be considering the former general and 2004 contender for the presidential nomination - Wes Clarke - for the VP slot.
This is the report: “Gen. Wes Clark’s slogan — “Securing America’s Future” — is the theme for the night Barack Obama’s running mate is scheduled to speak at the Democratic National Convention.
Clark’s political action committee is called WESPAC — Securing America’s Future.
It could just be a coincidence. After all, Clark appeared to dash his hopes of running with Obama in late June when he said getting shot down in Vietnam did not qualify John McCain to be president.
But if Obama believes Clark has strong enough military credentials to snipe at McCain effectively, he might still be in the mix.
On Monday, Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius and Obama adviser Anita Dunn announced the themes for the various nights of the convention, including “Securing America’s Future” for the third night, when the vice presidential candidate will speak. “
Given McCain’s strong military connections Wes Clark seems to make a lot of sense - reinforcing Obama’s position in an area where he’s vulnerable.
Wes Clark, a Rhodes Scholar who was at Oxford, commanded Operation Allied Force in the Kosovo War during his term as the Supreme Allied Commander Europe of NATO from 1997 to 2000.
Yes they have the certificate along with the whitey tape.......
:rolleyes:
Oh Pleeze - pleeze - pleeze .....
I think that Caroline Kennedy is the longshot choice in this race.
more to the point, why did the u.s. side with kosovo, a moslem population of recent times?
americans have no idea what kosovo, the field of blackbirds, and the loss to the turks, means to the serbs.
the serbs are south slavs; the russians east slavs.
while talking out on side of his mouth about the new world order, bill clinton won the hatred of the russians and serbs for creating a separate state of kosovo.
How perfect that would be...the black and white of stupid is as stupid does.
Perfect!

I know tens of millions of urban dwellers who are that stupid.
She would be eaten alive. She is not a good public speaker at all.
And where will the feats of strength be? :)
Clark is a maroon.
Don’t worry. Georgia is Putin’s payback to Clark for Kosovo.
Wheat Toast and White Toast.
Just remember, Bubba was a Rhodes scholar too.
Yead, probably mr. paint dry Evan Bayh.
Yead = Yeah
Attorney General Ramsey Clark & President Lyndon B. Johnson.
Ramsey Clark(l) and Lynne Stewart(r)
All a bunch of pro-commie pinkos. The Democrat party majority leadership of today was the radical minority voice of 40 years ago (that was burning down armories, bombing the Pentagon, blowup up police cars, shooting police officers, plotting to assassinate elected Congressmen, robbing banks and extorting money from fellow travellers...
I’ll be glad when the radical chic baby boomers are all too old to do any more harm.
