<font color=green>This is the environment which allows someone like George W. Bush to first be elected and then be perceived as a strong and decisive leader by most of the electorate. He keeps it simple, which for him isn’t really a choice. You are with him or against him; you’re on the side of righteousness or evil; you invade a country and topple a regime or concede defeat in the war on terror. Conservatives viewed Clinton as indecisive because he not only had the ability to see all sides, his thought process generally demanded that he do so. Although his communication skills were phenomenal, he lacked Bush’s certitude. Of course, to progressives, Bush’s certitude is seen as obnoxious, close-minded hubris. Still, many of us, even progressives, are too quick to find fault when someone else’s thinking doesn’t fit into a ready-made framework with which we are comfortable. This is the environment in which Wesley Clark has entered.<font color=black> This says it all. I am less concerned with Clark's party credentials and more concerned with his values. We can not afford to make another mistake for the presidency. Its astounding how much damage Bush has wrought in three short years. Thanks for linking me to the site. What would you think of a combination of Clark and Dean or Clark and Kerry? prometheusspeaks.blogspot.com.
