The American Empire needs a general in the White House.

BY HAROLD BLOOM*

<<...In recent interviews, Gen. Clark has reminded us that our allies in Europe are our permanent friends, however divergent our interests may become at particular times. Our current president has appealed to our allies for help in our Iraqi quandary, but few will give him either troops or money. Gen. Clark is highly likely to reconcile our friends, even as he will not augment our enemies.

I am not suggesting that all our future presidents must be generals. Yet the time and the person have come together in Gen. Clark. There is potential greatness in him: realism and hope intricately fuse in his character. As a lifelong Democrat speaking to other Democrats, I urge his nomination. To Republicans and independents, I put the question: Weigh Gen. Clark's qualifications against President Bush's performance, and who seems likelier to lead us effectively in the years of trouble ahead of us?...>>
