Madonna:
"I am supporting General Wesley Clark for President"
Madonna heeft als beroemdheid (eindelijk!) haar Smoel opengetrokken op haar eigen website. Mooie woorden van een mooie dame?
"I am writing to you because the future I wish for my children is at risk.
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."
Madonna heeft nooit eerder zo openlijk haar politieke voorkeur voor Democraat Wesley Clark uitgesproken, maar volgens haar staat er nu teveel op het spel om stil te blijven.
"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."
