The idea that either Senator McCain or Senator Obama would make a better President because of military combat experience alone is a superfluous argument at best and General Clark knows this. The framers of the Constitution knew this as well.
General Clark knows that being President of the United States involves experience in the politics of war as well as the mechanics of war.
Senator McCain has both. Senator Obama has none. General Clark only has the mechanics of war experience.
Such arguments to make a case that the GOP is more-American than Democrats are just as superfluous.
Generals should stay out of politics.
