2. What Obama said recently is right. We need to go after OBL, our military has to do what is needed.
Pakistan has nukes. If that country goes into a civil war - and the nukes get into the wrong hands, all hell is going to break lose.

But we need a commander in chief that is going to deal with these matters in an intelligent way, not make stupid mistakes like we did in Iraq. Or to threaten Iran, which just makes all the terrorists hate us even more. That's why I trust Biden. He is the only one that I feel that will handle these matters in an intelligent way, because he has a deep knowledge of foreign relations from 30 years of dealing with it. heck - he even spoke to Musharraf and Bhutto on the phone. I don't even think Bsh did that.

All of the candidates, except for Kucinich and Gravel will tell you the same thing. There is a time and a place when we have to use our military might. But if it is handled correctly it will not be the mess we are in now. If Obama ends up in the WH, I pray that he picks Kerry or Biden for VP, he's too green.
