want my children to grow up with the same opportunities that I had -- to
know and understand what's going on in the world and to travel that world

Please join me.

> Our greatest risk is not terrorism, and it's not Iraq or the "Axis of
Evil." Our greatest risk is a lack of leadership, a lack of honesty and a
complete lack of consciousness. Unfortunately our current government cannot
see the big picture. They think too small. They suffer from the "what's in
it for me?" syndrome. The simple truth is that the current administration
has squandered incredible opportunities to bring the world together, to
promote peace in regions that have only known war, to encourage health in
places that are ravaged with disease, to make us more secure by living up to
our principles at home and abroad. The simple truth is that the policies of
our current administration do not reflect what is great about America.

> Thankfully, we have a candidate running for President who is committed to
ensuring that our country lives up to its promise and its people. Wes Clark
is a decorated soldier and a respected diplomatic leader who has already
given 34 years to his country. He is smart and he is good. He has worked
hard to get where he is and he is a national hero.

> A perfect example of the American Dream.

> I've never aligned myself with a presidential candidate during the primary
season. But this time, the stakes are just too high, we have too much to
lose and there is so much work to be done.
>
> I'm joining you in supporting General Wesley Clark in 2004. I have
committed to do all that I can to help his campaign in the coming months,
and I'm asking you to do the same. He needs all of us to reaffirm our
support today, at the start of the New Year.
>
> I've looked at all the Democratic candidates. I respect them all for
their dedication and patriotism. But I'm supporting Wes Clark because in
him I see the qualifications, character and vision that we so desperately
need.
>
> We are a country with incredible promise. As Americans, we enjoy
opportunities like no other. Unfortunately we too often take these
opportunities for granted. You may not agree with everything I say or do,
but whether you're rich or poor, young or old, black or white, gay or
straight, I know you share my concern and recognize the need for change.
>
> If you can give, give generously. If you can volunteer time, get involved
now. And don't be shy.share your support with everyone you meet.
>
> If it helps, spread this message on to everyone you know. My opinions
have made news before. Let's make some news in 2004.
