Jack Oliver Joins ONE
In an effort to have all their political bases covered for 2008, Bush strategist Jack Oliver will become the next co-chair of the ONE campaign, joining Yahoo! COO Dan Rosenweig. The two will join ONE CEO and former Reid Chief of Staff Susan McCue who signed onto the anti-poverty campaign last month.
"Jack and Dan are two of the country’s best political and tactical minds," McCue said in a statement. "I look forward to joining forces with them in our grassroots campaign to bring the fight against global AIDS and extreme poverty to the forefront of today’s political arena and 2008 Presidential cycle. We are building a team unlike any other and together we plan to create an unstoppable force, powered by people, for real change."
Oliver's statement: "ONE is building a successful campaign by doing it differently: bringing together people of different political parties and faiths, business and politics, grassroots and Internet organizing to help America do even more to save lives in the world's poorest countries."
The Gates Foundation's Joe Cerrell, a former assistant press secretary to Al Gore, was also elected to the board.[SHIRA TOEPLITZ].
