Wes North Alabama 1/15/2007
RocketCityBev:
AND THIS WAS A CAMPAIGN SPEECH FOLKS -- no if ands or buts about it -- I was sooo excited I was jumping up and down and saying YES and dancing around people thought I was NUTS!!! WES IS GOING TO RUNNNN WES IS GOING TO RUUNNN!! YES SIR GENERAL!!!Everyone LOVED what he had to say!! Good answers to immigration, war on drugs and the Katrina mess!! And Joyce can vouch with me -- He is running!! :) :) :)
Joyce11:
Wes is going to run -- no doubt about it. He looked great tonight, khaki pants, white shirt, red tie and grey V-neck sweater.He started off immediately talking about his bio. Where he grew up, going to West Point, X amount of years in the Army, getting wounded in Nam, etc. etc. I got the impression that he was hurt when in 04' everyone was talking about Kerry's war service and barely mentioned his record of service. And he's right, that's what happened. He definitely sounded like a candidate to me. He was passionate, funny, and he did say that "IF I RUN THIS TIME, I'LL WIN!!!
The crowd was energetic, supportive, and there were no empty seats in the house. RUN WES RUN!
Joyce11:
He was very passionate -- more so than I've ever seen him. He talked about how he wanted to make a difference. He said he wanted to increase teachers pay, wanted to raise the minimum wage, wanted pre-school education for every child, wanted health care for everyone. He talked about illegal immigration, foreign policy. Someone asked him how long it would take to undo the damage of the Bush Administratiion. He said that people in other countries loved Americans, they just don't like our governmental policies. But more than that, he talked about his last campaign and how he was viewed in 04 as not really being a Democrat and how in the last couple of years he has proven himself by helping elect a Democratic congress and senate. How he had raised more than a million dollars and had spent many days campaigning all across the country for democratic candidates. He said that he was the ONLY democrat that Jon Tester would allow to come to Montana and campaign for him. He said in relation to his running again tha he had not said NO. That he was working through the idea. Like I said though, he was more passionate than I've ever seen him. He loves this country and it makes him mad as hell to see what Bush/Cheney are doing to his beloved country. "If I run this time, I'll win! Wes Clark 1/15/07
Joyce11:
He did say WHEN I run for President. He also asked for our support as he was being hustled off to the airport.
Joyce11:
Just wish you all could have been there tonight. It was my third time to see him in person and this time he's really ready to run for President. In 04' I think he knew he was in a uphill battle, but tonight he had the EYE OF THE TIGER.
RUN WES RUN
Wes also did a local Fox News interview while he was in Alabama.
