Rudy Pledges to Work Hard to Increase Bush’s Programs
Share
Rudy Giuliani came to speak to Iowa State students on campus last week and was greeted by a crowd of over 400 – including several ONE supporters. Mr. Giuliani spoke for a while and then took questions from the audience. When I asked him what a Giuliani Administration would do to support the UN’s Millennium Development Goals, he said, “I would work very hard to continue the programs that President Bush has supported and increasing them.” Seeing my ONE T-shirt, he added, “You do great work!”
After the event, I got the chance to shake Mr. Giuliani’s hand and offered him a ONE wristband which he wore as he posed for a photo and continued to shake hands with the crowd!

“I would work very hard to continue the programs that President Bush has supported and increasing them.” … Not much of a response. Doesn’t seem like he has thought about the Millennium Goals very much. However it’s nice that he recognized the ONE logo, making a positive remark about what we do. I hope next time he’s asked he’ll have a real answer.
