Joe Lieberman believes that it would take a very well prepared and ready president to be able to face the numerous attacks that the Islamic groups have been throwing their way. With another possible attack on the United States on the new presidents first year of administration, Lieberman believes that it is best to be prepared by military forces, and security for whatever may come.
Retired General Wesley Clark who is backing up Sen. Obamas running for presidency believes otherwise. Of course it is good for a standing president to have a good, celebrated military background, however, his efficiency as president will not only be based on that. What the country needs is someone who has good judgment, of which Sen. Barack Obama obviously have shown the American people ever since he has served the country.
And I think what we need to do, Bob, is we need to stop talking about the old politics of left and right, and we need to pull together and move the country forward. And I think that’s what Barack Obama will do.” Clark told Scheiffer on Face The Nation.
