WALLINGFORD, Pa. (AP) - Democrat Barack Obama says as president he would consider putting Al Gore in a Cabinet-level position—or higher. A woman at a town hall asked the Illinois senator if elected president would he consider tapping the former vice president for his Cabinet, or an even higher level office, to address global warming.

"I would," Obama said. "Not only will I, but I will make a commitment that Al Gore will be at the table and play a central part in us figuring out how we solve this problem. He's somebody I talk to on a regular basis. I'm already consulting with him in terms of these issues but climate change is real."

A Commentary on the War Against Terror: Our Larger Tasks Author: Al Gore

February 12, 2002 Council on Foreign Relations

www.cfr.org/publication.html?id=4343 [snip] "As important as identifying Iraq, Iran and North Korea for what they are, we must be equally bold in identifying other evils that confront us. For there is another Axis of Evil in the world: poverty and ignorance; disease and environmental disorder; corruption and political oppression. We may well put down terror in its present manifestations. But if we do not attend to the larger fundamentals as well, then the ground is fertile and has been seeded for the next generation of those born to hate us, who will hold these things up before the world's poor and dispossessed, and say that all these things are in our image, and rekindle the war we are now hoping to snuff out. “Draining the swamp” of terrorism must of course in the first instance mean destroying the ability of terrorist networks to function. But drying it up at its source must also mean draining the aquifer of anger that underlies terrorism: anger that enflames the hearts of so many young men, and makes them willing, dedicated recruits for terror. Anger at perceived historical injustices involving a mass-memory throughout the Islamic world of past glory and more recent centuries of decline and oppression at the hands of the West. " [snip]

Bombing them into prosperity and good govenors of the earth. Presidential logic. I guess he didn't read the CFR reports on the ME before he opened his yap.

Too easy.

I wonder why so many supposed Conservative-Constitutionists that supported Ron Paul buy into the Globalist-Commie-Fascists' schtick?

Maybe they want the Nanny State...

I guess I am. I'm wired to want an end to the aggressive wars and violations of civil liberties of the Bush regime.

You folks seem wired to have different priorities.

Sorry, you support a candidate that has not voted according to your values. Period.

That you continue to stick a fork in your own eye isn't my fault, but unfortunately, becomes everyones problem. Frankly, I consider it cowardly. Maybe you just want to BELIEVE. Well believe this, the more power you give to government over you, the more they will take. And who are you to condemn us all for your weakness?

My folks? Ah, you mean freedom loving Americans? Yes, we do have different priorities than you. You need a government teat and a sick need to control everyone else.

You must be confusing me with someone else. As I have said repeatedly, what I want is an end to the Bush regime's wars of aggression and violations of civil liberties. What is cowardly about that?

I think the cowardly people are the ones who want -- or at least are willing -- to see those atrocities continue, just so that they can feel safe.

You want to believe that Obama is different on the war and he isn't. His advisors want bigger wars, globalism and further suspension of civil liberties. Why you refuse to acknowledge this is perplexing, if you were in control of common sense. You are a neo-con and perhaps don't realize it. Your position is that you will sacrifice everything for something you imagine is true. That you can't face it, is cowardly.

No one wants the atrocities to end more than the Ron Paul folks, and I think you know that. That he is not going to win doesn't mean people abandon their principles, or what is right in nature. That you feel you must embrace 'something' that sounds good, when under the smallest scrutiny is abhorrent, is contemptable and worse.

There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers around the world who are now slaves to the madness, and you are not doing your part to defend or support them, who believe, they are supporting you.

What twisted mind can say that Obama's advisors blueprints for bigger wars, is somehow better is beyond my understanding.

That he is able to dance around direct answers and you swallow it, is unbelievable.

You constantly hide behind Party labels to make your case for you... since you can NOT make a good one for BO.

He's a globalist, and their first order of business is to destroy what's left of our country. You will have your way, and I suspect you will be the biggest flag waver if your guy is leading the charge.

Damn few politicians of any stripe aren't right now.

In the meantime I'll sleep better with one of the alliance types than the pre-emptive war types in office.

PS Obama is also not the type of globalist that considers protectionism a bad word.

You better read up on Zbig then. As a reminder, he and his son Mark are advisors to Obama. I would say that alliance is one that requires some attention.

As I mentioned the other day, Obama should run as 3rd party and declare the positions that are his own, and toss the globalists from his circle.

And then he would get one percent of the vote, just like every other third party candidate. Our electoral system is completely rigged against third parties. Picture this: A hurdles race with multiple tracks. Two tracks have "hurdles" that consist of wooden platforms about six inches high, all the runners in those lanes have to do is to not be so uncoordinated that they actually trip over them. The "hurdles" in the other lanes consist of brick walls about fifty feet high, soaked in a mix of crude oil, raw sewage and toxic waste. The tops of the walls are set with shards of broken glass. And there's one wall every five feet, and each one is ten feet taller than the one before it.

THAT is the system we currently have that confronts third party candidates. It's a joke, a sham, there will NEVER EVER EVER be a "third party" candidate elected to the presidency. We'll grow wings and fly to the moon under our own power before that happens. The Plutocrats have rigged this system REAL good, all for them, nothing for us, and that's how it's going to stay until there's a major revolt.

Agreed, but you do remember the months of trying to get Ron Paul to run 3rd party to show that he rejects the evil GOP? Well, why shouldn't the same standard be applied to Obama if he were, in fact, different?

It exposes the shills, liars and moles that infested this place for months.

I agree with you completely though.

They didn't rig it well enough to prevent JFK from becoming president. And then he proved enough of a nuisance to them that they had him assassinated.

Obama MIGHT turn out the same.

Sad but true. And, the voting/elections rules are laid down at the state level. It would take a a constitutional amendment (maybe even a constitutional convention, and God knows we don't that) to change things.

Both "parties" bear the shame. Red states are no different that blue in this regard.
