Clark is most certainly qualified in regards to military experience, but then you'd be upset because he's a Democrat.



I've been happy with Obama's picks for VP and COS. (Remember, a COS is there to get things done...not make the opposing party feel warm and fuzzy inside.) I trust Obama will make his decision on SECDEF based on who he honestly feels is the best man for the job.
Weasley Clark has the experience all right , he almost started World War 3.
