Fair Game
The World

Not much separates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton on Iraq ? Obama says get out now, Clinton says get out right now. But according to Spencer Ackerman, there is actually a very big distinction between the candidates’ foreign policy plans. In fact Senator Obama, he says, is subtly offering the boldest foreign policy critique of any major presidential candidate in decades. Spencer Ackerman is a senior correspondent with the left-leaning magazine The American Prospect, and he speaks with Brian Donovan on Fair Game.
