Veterans Speak Out For Obama
Posted October 09, 2008 at 3:21 PM

Recently a group of Next Generation Veterans for Obama released a video explaining why they believe Barack Obama should be our next Commander-in-Chief.

"We deserve a strategy that honors our sacrifice," says Iraq veteran Tammy Duckworth, who adds that America needs a president who willserve our veterans as well as they have served us.”

The veterans who all served in Iraq or Afghanistan argue that Obama has the right strategy for Afghanistan and Iraq, and the best strategy for confronting the threats and challenges of the 21st Century.

“Success is Iraqi security, not a 100 year American occupation,” and a strategy to “to finish the fight against Al Qaeda, and find Osama Bin Laden,” said Chris McGurk, a former infantry sergeant who fought in both Iraq and Afghanistan.

Maura Sullivan, an Iraq war veteran and former Marine Corps officer, says that “Success is a plan for the future.” Only Barack Obama has a comprehensive national security strategy which integrates all elements of national power to confront the threats and challenges of the 21st Century.
