Wesley Clark Addresses Possible Presidential Run

Retired General Wesley Clark was interviewed this week on his presidential aspirations. He's thinking hard about it, promising a decision by the end of the summer.

Clark would be "honored," he said, to be considered for the No. 2 spot, but right now he is pondering the presidency. "Those young kids who organized the draft movement, I have to give them an answer," he said.

We think Clark is a strong possibility for the VP slot. If he attaches himself to one declared candidate now, and that candidate doesn't get the Democratic nod, it might lessen his chances of being chosen by the winning candidate.

By launching his own presidential bid, he remains available to be chosen for the VP slot by any one of the others. So, we're leaning towards thinking Clark will announce his run for the Presidency.
