In about an hour and a half, White House hopeful Senator Barack Obama (D-Ill) will deliver a speech on the country’s Iraq policy his campaign says will be monumental.

Obama will outline a plan to end the war in Iraq at Ashford University in Clinton, IA.

A few exceprts of this four-page plan has already leaked:

1. “Immediately begin to pull out troops engaged in combat operations at a pace of one or two brigades every month, to be completed by the end of next year.”

2. “Call for a new constitutional convention in Iraq, convened with the United Nations, which would not adjourn until Iraq’s leaders reach a new accord on reconciliation.”

3. “Use presidential leadership to surge our diplomacy with all of the nations of the region on behalf of a new regional security compact.”

4. “Take immediate steps to confront the humanitarian disaster in Iraq, and to hold accountable any perpetrators of war crimes.”

His remarks and analysis to come later this afternoon…..
