Oscar-winning filmmaker Michael Moore, known as a tough critic of President George W. Bush, globalization's downside and the culture of arms, wants a new man in the White House: Democrat Wesley Clark.

In a letter that begins “Dear General Wesley Clark,” of which AFP obtained a copy, Moore encourages the retired general to press hard to win the Democratic Party's nod …

… “You seem to be a man of integrity. You seem not afraid to speak the truth. I liked your answer when you were asked your position on gun control: “If you are the type of person who likes assault weapons, there is a place for you — the United States Army. We have them,” the letter said …

… “And you oppose war. You have said that war should always be the 'last resort' and that it is military men such as yourself who are the most for peace because it is you and your soldiers who have to do the dying,” Moore said.

“You may be the person who can defeat George W. Bush in next year's election,” he added.
