Donovan et. al.
Wesley Clark running for president as a Democrat is a positive development,
though I wonder how well he will play in the media, how charismatic a
personality he is, which is a requirement for a successful presidential
candidacy these days, no matter what qualifications a candidate possesses.
Right now Arnold the Terminator is getting more media coverage than the
democratic presidential candidates! Media "play" indeed.
I also wonder if he has or can raise the funds to fight the overwhelming
monetary power of the Republican political machine.
However, you mentioned Clark being a "socially progressive liberal." If you
want to promote Clark, don't use the "L" word. The propaganda advertising
psychology wizards of the powers that be have successfully re-defined that
word in a pejorative light, to be trotted out to sling mud at whoever runs
for office advocating any policies that might be interpreted as "liberal."
Call Clark a "compassionate democrat." The democratic spin meisters should
steal a tactic from the enemy.
