Wes Clark to kick off new PAC
On the evening of May 24 in Midtown Manhattan, General Clark will be hosting his first fundraiser for WesPAC-Securing America's Future. He writes:

Recently my top priority has been to support John Kerry's campaign to defeat George W. Bush and I have worked hard to do everything I can to see it done. I am proud to have made dozens of media apearances for Senator Kerry, and I have committed to travel the country for him.

Going forward, I intend to form a results-oriented political action committee. I'm calling it WesPAC-Securing America's Future. WesPAC's dual purpose is to:

(1) Elect Democrats to the White House and Congress; and
(2) Provide leadership on U.S. National Security.

I will campaign throughout the country to an electorate that is looking for responsible leadership with strong security credentials and solid judgment. My belief is that I can help convince concerned voters to elect Democrats and to demand responsible leadership and sound national security policies. As we all know a strong turnout and support for Democrats across the country will help elect Senator Kerry and defeat George Bush.

Apart from the PAC, I will also continue to campaign and speak on behalf of Senator Kerry.

The PAC provides the best vehicle for me to continue to shed light on this administration's national security failures and irresponsible foreign policy--a constant veil-lifting that will be increasingly important as the Bush/Cheney team floods the airwaves with over $200 million in paid advertising and aggressive get out the vote efforts.

I will leverage my 34-year military career to ensure that the Republicans will never again effectively attack Democrats as "weak on defense" or "weak on national security": or somehow "lacking in patriotism." WesPAC will fight for wise national security strategies to ensure that America, once again, becomes both mighty and just."

Wes
