Reply #57: Military Spending

[starscape]

From Forbes:

"...Argus Research defense industry analyst Jim Kelleher said defense company executives most likely will have little enthusiasm for the West Point graduate's presidential run. Despite his brilliant 34-year army career, which included combat in Vietnam and a stint as Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, Clark will be perceived as disinclined to champion the high military spending increases that have marked the Bush administration. A CNN military analyst during the recent US-led strike against Iraq, Clark at times made critical comments about aspects of the campaign on air. "

You will hear it from his mouth because it will be one of the first questions they ask him in the debates, IMO.
