Famous academic Francis Fukuyama, one of the founding fathers of the neo-conservative movement that underlies the policies of US President George W. Bush's administration, said on July 13 that he would not vote for the incumbent in the November 2 US Presidential election.
In addition to distancing himself from the current administration, Fukuyama told TIME magazine that his old friend, US Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, should resign.
In 1997, Fukuyama together with Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz and Jeb Bush, signed a declaration entitled 'The New American Century Project'. That declaration set the groundwork for the neo-conservative movement.
Recomendo também a leitura dos comentários de CN no blog da Causa Liberal, tendo no entanto presente que Fukuyama sempre manifestou fortes reservas à possibilidade de uma ocupação militar do Iraque ser bem sucedida, um facto que CN parece esquecer...
