Obama and Clinton: Sharing the Spotlight in Denver

Hosted by

Barack Obama has agreed to let Hillary Clinton be nominated at the Democratic convention, complete with a roll call of states and a parade on the floor. It's billed as a "symbolic" gesture, but it raises questions about who's really running the show. Also, Defense Secretary Robert Gates sees no prospect for US military force in Georgia, and secret agents for the United States during World War II later became famous for other reasons. We hear about 24,000 names released today after 60 years of secrecy.
