What are viewpoints of the other candidates?
Currently, there are about 3,000 American troops in Iraq giving training to the Iraquis.

To early for this discussion.
For the next year and half or so, we have one CINC and one congress. Candidates do not count at all.
I am not sure that a candidate, not in the Senate (meaning being aware of things) should say this.
The question to me is, when does it become NECESSARY to have boots on the ground and I hope the answer is we never have to, but to avoid that we need to quickly make some decisions and develop a well thought out plan (as opposed to no plan we have right now)
