Obama Meets With National Security Advisory Group

Washington (AP) - Barack Obama is answering a question he faced often on the campaign trail. With limited foreign policy experience of his own, who would he turn to for advice before making those decisions?

The Democratic White House hopeful has scheduled the inaugural meeting Wednesday of what he's calling his Senior Working Group on National Security. It includes former members of Congress and high-ranking administration officials. Among them are three who advised Hillary Rodham Clinton and had served in her husband's Cabinet -- Madeleine Albright, William Perry and Warren Christopher.

Obama also was meeting Wednesday with nearly 40 retired admirals and generals to discuss the state of the military and the challenges in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere.
