RICHARDSON MAY INTERVENE IN SUDAN

New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson may soon be adding to his foreign policy resume, the Albuquerque Tribune reports.

Richardson, who is considering a run for the Democratic presidential nomination in '08, was asked by the Save Darfur Coaltion to travel to Sudan to try to get the government to accept a multi-lateral peace-keeping force to combat ethnic violence there.

Richardson is a former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations in September negotiated the release of a U.S. journalist from Richardson's home state.
