DEAN vs. KERRY on Iraq War

[newsguyatl]

It's time to focus on how best to build a democracy in Iraq, Bill Clinton said on CNN this week. And as he runs for president, John Kerry would clearly love to do just that.


In a conference call with reporters on Monday, the Massachusetts senator tried. Citing his Vietnam War experience, he called upon the Bush administration to put aside ''false pride'' and seek help from both NATO and the UN in Iraq.

But in attempting to shift campaign attention from the decision to wage the war to his ideas for winning the peace, Kerry faces one formidable obstacle: former Vermont governor Howard Dean.

''A bunch of the people who voted for this war are now saying, `Well, we were misled.' The fact is you can't afford to be misled if you are running for president of the United States.''
