If Clark is nominated, will we have a real choice?
If Clark is the Democratic nominee, will we have a real choice in the general election? I base this off the following:

1. Bush is a militarist, Clark is a militarist: Bush supported unilateral war in Iraq. Clark initiated unilateral war in Serbia, in defiance of the UN, and said he would "probably" for the blank-check Iraq War Resolution.

2. Bush favors corporatism, Clark seems to agree: When Dean proposed to regulate corporate abusers, Clark slammed him.

"Clark criticizes Dean's reregulation plan as bad business"
http://www.boston.com/news/politics/president/clark/articles/2003/11/20/clark_criticizes_deans_reregulation_plan_as_bad_business/

Clark: "The results in the '90s spoke for themselves...Regulation is not going to get our economy moving again."

Is the Green party going to get a second wind if Clark is nominated? After all, their raison d'etre is to offer a true choice to the militarism and corporatism that dominates our society today. Clark supporters- I'd like to hear your thoughts why Clark is not a militarist or corporate supporter.
