*****I keep reading that here on FR, but I cannot find any reference to his position on national defense. He has never commanded an army. *****

shuuuush. You're not supposed to say that. He told Arafat to get out of town and a Sheiek to shove $10 million - that's enough. :-)

*****The guy is a gun confiscationist, anti 2nd Amendment. What makes anyone trust him with the U.S. Armed Services?****

Now stop it. Gun grabbing is sign of 'toughness' and national defense expertise. Why the first thing he'll do is just take the Terrorists guns away by a U.N. resolution - that'll show those guys like Mullah Omar!
