But then there's that deep thinker, Weasley Clark - U.S. candidate Clark wants 'Greater Middle East' plan
NEW YORK - Presidential hopeful Wesley Clark contrasted his foreign policy on Thursday with President George W. Bush's occupation of Iraq and said if elected he would extend U.S. and European military and security partnerships to countries of the "Greater Middle East."
