Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about war and peace, democracy, the climate catastrophe, and economic and racial justice, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be TRIPLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $45. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Clark a Democrat Two Weeks After Announces Candidacy

HeadlineOct 08, 2003

The Washington Post reports Gen. Wesley Clark, who is running for president, may have broken federal election laws by discussing his campaign during recent speeches where he was receiving a fee. Since he declared his candidacy last month, Clark has continued to give paid speeches where he has received up to $30,000 per speech.

In other Clark news, Clark’s campaign manager resigned Tuesday saying the retired general was slighting the activists who launched the Draft Clark campaign in favor of Washington insiders.

And The Washington Times reports that Clark officially became a Democrat on Monday two weeks after he announced he was running as a Democratic candidate for president.
