The Hill 3/17/99 Dick Morris "
Sandy Berger is about as qualified to be White House national security advisor as I am. Hes a political operative who had virtually no foreign policy experience before he became Tony Lakes deputy. He was put into the National Security Council (NSC) under Lake so that Tony, who didnt have a clue about politics, wouldnt get cut apart in the congressional swamp. His job was to know politics. Tonys was to know foreign policy
. When Lake and Christopher left, Berger got the top NSC job, the first professional politician ever to be named national security advisor. It was a major mistake
.Clintons choice of Berger was, however, just right for his concept of foreign policy, that it is subordinate to domestic political and economic considerations. Where the president can intervene abroad and do well at home with domestic constituencies as in Israel, Ireland and Haiti foreign policy is important. But where global strategy is concerned, the prime motive is economic to create jobs in America and not diplomatic, military or strategic. He runs foreign policy like a governor promoting his state
