JOHNSTON, Iowa (Reuters) - The Iraq war dominated the presidential campaign on Friday, with Hillary Clinton facing charges she flip-flopped on withdrawing forces and the White House rebuffing Mike Huckabee's criticism of its foreign policy.

"If she's elected, we will have immediately a president who is credible on national security and military affairs, committed to diplomacy and cooperation, widely respected around the world," he said told voters in Columbus Junction, Iowa.

widely respected around the world

Too bad she is running for Pres of the USA instead of Gen Sec of the UN then since according to all the polls she is widely disrespected here in the USA.

The WOT needs to come to the forefront in this election cycle!

Yes, things have greatly improved in Iraq. However, the greater WOT has not and will not go away simply because there is an election coming up in the USA.

The American people need to KNOW who will fight this war for our survival and which candidate has the credentials to be the Commander-in-Chief to our amazing military.

There is ONLY ONE capable and knowledgable enough to carry that title...
