What evidence do you have that Giuliani would be better than Clinton on the war and national security? His only strength in this area is that he can get in front of the cameras and run his mouth about how damned tough he’d be as president. He has no foreign policy experience and has never served in the military. He doesn’t have an extensive education in foreign affairs and I don’t even know if he’s even studied the issues beyond the campaign sound bite level. Who are his foreign policy and military advisors, and who would he appoint as Sec. of Defense and Sec. of State, for instance? Heck, I don’t even think he’s traveled much outside the U.S. for that matter, even as an ordinary tourist.

I have no evidence. That was why I said “...it would be reasonably to expect that Giuliani’s policies will be significantly better than Clinton’s.”
The only thing we have is candidate’s rhetoric and background. We use both to make a selection and hope for the best. Giuliani’s rhetoric, especially on national security, is excellent. His background, from the time he was a NYC mayor, also indicates that he will be a strong leader who will put emphasis on safety and security.

I am sorry, but John Kerry is not running in this election cycle.
