Under fire, Clark releases economic plan to repeal $100 billion in Bush tax cuts

RON FOURNIER, AP Political Writer Wednesday, September 24, 2003

(09-24) 13:51 PDT WASHINGTON (AP) --
Presidential hopeful Wesley Clark unveiled a $100 billion economic and homeland security plan Wednesday while two primary rivals questioned his commitment to the Democratic Party.

On the eve of a 10-candidate economic debate, the retired Army general offered the first glimpse at his domestic agenda, saying the policies are part of his promise to protect America from both economic and foreign threats. Clark's strategy: Counter his inexperience in politics by presenting even his pocketbook initiatives through the prism of his 30-year military career.

"Protecting the country in the 21st century requires more than a strong military. It requires a strong economy that generates jobs, economic growth, and the revenues we need to defend American lives and property -- wherever they are in the world," Clark said in an address at a park along New York's East River, across from a soon-to-close sugar refinery.
