5. I could maybe be convinced.
I don't know enough about where he stands on domestic issues, but I feel more and more like I could get behind Clark.

7. I don't know his "platform",
but in '04 he was the ONLY candidate for the presidential nomination who was explicitly calling for universal health care. ("We have it in the military; all Americans should have it.")

11. Wes will beat Hillary and Obama......they can't win, he can!
He's great and deserves much more attention. The Democrats will sink into oblivion if they support Hillary or Obama. I like them, but they can't pull it off.

12. You've said it, with your.....
He "deserves much more attention" which is why the corporate national media won't give him any!

The media knows who butters their bread! Much better to highlight those who have major handicaps if they were to run in a national election, in particular, in the arena of national security; the media gifts the Democrats with Sen. Clinton; a woman who's major claim to fame is having been married to a President, and an African-American, Barak Obama, who has just arrived onto the National scene and has no experience in Foreign policy! Meanwhile, they push McCain and Guliani on the GOP side for the 2008 ticket. Now, why would that be?

If folks would remember that the media ain't about to do Dems any favors; not now, and not in the near future, we might get somewheres!
