Kerry promised AFL-CIO endorsement, Clark’s backing By DAVID ESPO, AP
AFL-CIO President John Sweeney scheduled a meeting of the federation’s general board for next Thursday “to officially endorse” Kerry, according to the memo obtained by The Associated Press.
AFL-CIO spokeswoman Lane Windham confirmed that Sweeney would recommend the move. “But we’re a democratic organization and it is ultimately up to the general board to decide who they will endorse,” said spokeswoman Lane Windham.
The AFL-CIO, with a membership of 13 million is one of the key pillars of the Democratic Party, and an endorsement of Kerry signals the groups desire to unite behind a challenger to begin the campaign against President Bush this fall.------------------------------------------- posted 8:37 AM :: reference link ::
