28. The fine line between brave and stupid
Look at what happens when candidates talk about this. Wes Clark went to the Pentagon and people told him about the five-year/seven country plan. He all but described who told him and named the countries with specificity -- and the press called him crazy and a liar.

PNAC, and the five-year perpetual war plan and "Pax Americana" are all a pretty big pill for regular, uninformed Americans to swallow, especially with the right-wing press constantly reassuring them that it's crazy and not to worry, look, there's Michael Jackson.

Yes, all the candidates should be talking about this. And they will, but they do it at their (and our) peril until there's more proof, and until the public is more conditioned to take in the enormity of it.
