What About Darfur?

What does it say about our moral authority?
Dodd: Get military out of Iraq, build coalitions (something else I missed.)
Hillary: There has to be airlift or logistical support. I prefer NATO. Put up a no-fly zone, shoot down their planes.
Biden: For three years, stop talking, start acting. We should have two years ago imposed a no-fly zone and put troops on the ground to stop the carnage.
Richardson: Fighting genocide is more important than sports. Was in Darfur three months ago. We should take stands on Africa.
Edwards: Dittos, plus sanctions. Make primary school education available around the world.
Obama: African trade opportunities, investment, have a stake in order as opposed to chaos.
Kucinich: Stop our corporations from exploiting Africa. Stop giving Sudan a pass.
Gravel: If we have a president, he has to have moral judgment. The people on this stage don’t have it, by virtue of what they’ve done. ???
