39. I could teach you a few things about Clark.
But you don't need to be convinced. Many in the Hillary campaign have behaved badly. Clark was never one of those people. Also, the VP doesn't need a lot of DC experience. They're not a legislator in any real way. Clark would be an amazing adviser to Obama or anyone else. He should be Secretary of State or Defense. He has a lot of good qualities for a VP as well. He brings hefty foreign policy and military experience that Obama needs. He's got leadership experience that rivals any governor. He already had "Commander in Chief" in his title. Clark is also very good on the issues, and he's "clean." He hasn't been tainted by too much of the DC bullshit. Clark doesn't bring a state, and that might be an issue. I think Strickland could be a good VP candidate as well, and he acted like a tool during that shame on you bit.

Why do you think being a Hillary supporter disqualifies anyone? That list has 3 Hillary supporters, 3 Obama supporters, and 3 neutrals. The top vote getter is a Hillary supporter. Maybe picking a Hillary supporter will help Obama consolidate the party. We all know that Hillary is going to ask her supporters to support Obama.
