Presidential Candidates React to Benazir Bhutto Assassination
CNN.com has a page that gives the reactions of the various presidential candidates to the murder of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.
There is a separate page for the Democratic and Republican candidates. Just click on the candidate’s picture and you’ll see a quote and often a link to a video as well.
There is a marked difference between how the Democrats and Republicans react in their statements. One candidate stands way apart from the crowd. Guess who.
Bhutto was murdered while finishing up a campaign rally for the upcoming election. The former Prime Minister was running for office after returning from exile after President Musharraff granted her amnesty from all corruption charges related to her previous time in office. She and her husband have been accused of taking many millions of dollars in bribes from companies wanting to do business in Pakistan and laundering the money through Swiss bank accounts.
