67. Just so you know
Joseph Cirincione, an expert in the field of nuclear proliferation. chose to join Obama's campaign who he felt knew more than the other candidates.

We are wrong, no matter which candidate we support, to assume that these candidates are dumb. These are people who perform in life at a high level--well, not McCain---and thus I give them their due.

I do not agree with Senator Clinton about her readiness to use nukes; however, I see that as function and in agreement with her foreign policy team. She does hang with the hawks. Actually, I see their differences as less a compare and contrast between hawks and doves, and rather a move beyond old and new thinking among the various schools of foreign policy. Obama is stressing "spreading dignity" as an important component. At the same time Obama has a rather agressive approach to the bad guys.
