Hmm …

 James Webb, War Novelist | The American Conservative.

James Webb is hardly a pacifist, but next to Hillary Clinton he is a virtual Smedley Butler: the peace candidate, a sharp critic of our Middle Eastern entanglements and their architects.
I rather like Webb, but I don't want a "peace" candidate anymore than I want a "war" candidate. Sometimes our interests are overseas. So I guess I want a candidate who is a realist, and who isn't more sure of everything than I am of anything.
