Richardson, seven other Democratic candidates speak at Nev. forum
By: Todd Dukart
Gov. Bill Richardson said that the next president of the United States should get the country out of Iraq.
He spoke Wednesday at a forum for Democratic presidential candidates in Carson City, Nev.
The forum was sponsored by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, and aired on the cable channel C-SPAN.
During his opening remarks, Richardson said the best way to handle Iraq would be to elect a Democratic president.
“The next president will have to get us out of Iraq,” he said.
Seven other Democratic candidates attended, but not Illinois Sen. Barack Obama.
Many political observers who have noted recent gains by democrats in political races in the Rocky Mountain states have asserted that in order for democrats to do well in the presidential election they must do well in the West.
Nevada has moved up its presidential caucus, giving the West more early clout in selecting a Democratic nominee.
