First, ask him which Democratic candidate he would vote for, if he were not himself running.
Then, ask him where he sees the great areas of general, moderate, agreement in US politics are, the things that Democrats and Republicans can agree on, the things that the Bush administration has done that he supports. (then ask a Republican if they agree...)
Ask if he thinks our pre-emptive war in Kosovo was a wrong on principle. What are his criteria for pre-emption (assume he's for it and let him say otherwise).
