Interesting article on how Obama developed his plan for Iraq and how it may change in the future.
From The Boston Globe:
As Obama mulled a presidential run, he began to reach out to a series of military leaders, including those who did not agree with him on Iraq.Obama listens to opposing views? Wow. I don't think our current President operates like this.
When Richard Danzig, a former Navy secretary, organized two meetings for Obama with retired military officers, Danzig asked whether he should invite officers who opposed Obama's views. The answer was yes, Danzig recalled.
"One of the attractive things about Obama is the desire to get a range of views and process them himself rather than get a homogenized product or exclude people who aren't in sympathy with him," Danzig said.
