There is repitition of various issues and it started off a bit weak, but when it got into the substance of his political philosophy, his role in the Senate, in the GOP, the impact of the Vietnam War on his foreign policy, it was more intriguing. It's a quick read.<BR/><BR/>Based on the way the party is going, the lack of reflection or insight in how to manage the Iraq War or the war on terror, Senator Hagel may not have a choice but to run. Even if he starts out as a voice in the wilderness, because of the uniqueness of his foreign policy positions, he will get some publicity and the issues will be raised.fprhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04712559348039503306noreply@blogger.com
