did Bill Clinton have any experience in foreign a policy

Thecure

when he was a governor. i think Bill Clinton was one of the best politician in modern time and i remember reading this articile along time ago and i just google it agian.

governors tend not to have much experience in foriegn affairs as that does not really relate to their job. the past i don't know how many president have all been governors.

so my question is this. what past president that was a governor had foreign experience?

Yes.
With Iran, and With Nicaragua, and Columbia ... working on the darkside for then puppet master George HW Bush.

Check it out.
It's like the movie Blow ... on crack.


There is also a very supressed suspicion that BOTH Bill and Hillary were recruited by the CIA decades ago, and sent on foreign assignments (like to Russia and such).

Why not?
The president before Bill was the goddamn HEAD of the CIA.
And HE (Bush Sr.) lied to the whole world about his history with the Agency. He said he had NONE.
Which was 100% Bushshit! He had been involved HEAVILY in the darkest recesses of the agency since at LEAST 1959!

I would assume not many. I don't necessarily agree with the notion that a President needs to have all this experience in different areas of government. No one really has the experience of being a president until they have served in office and every president surrounds him or herself with experts in all aspects to offer input and guidance in areas where they may not have to best knowledge. So all the talk about Obama and Palin's lack of experience is just bullshit to me.

I think this is fair enough, but can we draw a line between experience and interest/comprehension?

Of course we can. The candidate still has to have the ability to understand and judge the advice they are being given.
