I'm not sure how they decide what the feature article is going to be each day at Wikipedia, but today Wes Clark got that front page honor. Interesting. Do the editors at Wiki know something we don't? Is Wes close to an announcement, or is he still running for Secretary of Defense?
While there are some things in the article that fans of the General here at the KOS might want to edit, it's still one impressive biography. Compare General Clark's career of service to this country to others' in the race for President. I'm talking resume candidate supreme here.
Consider the military history alone. Here's a guy who could not only clean up the Rumsfeld mess at the Pentagon, but also create a military that projects soft power better, that wins hearts and minds, that can fight the kind of low-intensity conflicts we will see in the future (like the one we should be fighting better in Afghanistan).
Then, consider the education. Rhodes scholar. Masters in economics and military science. Valedictorian of his class at West Point. The man is perfect for the job of President.
But here's the best sentence in the whole article:
When asked about a presidential run by Amy Goodman on Democracy Now! on March 2, 2007, Clark said "I think about it every day."
Me too, sir. Me too.
