Obama uses Clinton to play bin Laden card

The movie lionizes Obama for tough decisions on economic and national security issues during his three-year presidency, and represents the latest attempt to secure a political dividend for killing the Al-Qaeda leader.He took the harder, and the more honorable path, Clinton said in the latest excerpt from the film The Road Weve Traveled released by the presidents campaign.When I saw what had happened, I thought to myself, I hope thats the call I wouldve made.Obama ordered the high risk Navy SEALS raid deep into Pakistan last year which ended the huge manhunt for bin Laden, and closed a chapter on the traumatic period of US history following the September 11 attacks in 2001.He was given a number of options for taking out bin Laden, including a missile strike, but chose the risker special forces raid on the Al-Qaeda kingpins hideout in Abbottabad, Pakistan.The movie, to be released on Thursday is narrated by Tom Hanks and made by Academy Award winning director Davis Guggenheim, and seeks to place the daily struggles and bitter partisan fights of his presidency in a larger context.
