  <title>Support the Candidates with a Responsible Plan to End the War in Iraq</title>

  <blurb>&lt;p&gt;The following candidates have all signed on to a comprehensive and &lt;a href="http://responsibleplan.com"&gt;responsible plan to end the war in Iraq&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In signing on to this effort, these candidates are demonstrating, not only the will to end the war, but the way in which they will accomplish it. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Support their efforts today and spread the word. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The plan originating outside the Beltway and is based on consultations with retired generals and other national security experts on a path forward to end the war, the challengers&amp;rsquo; document lays out a series of actions for Congress to take to end United States military involvement in Iraq, strengthen America and improve our standing around the world, restore accountability and checks and balances to our government and work toward energy independence.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dr. Lawrence Korb, former assistant secretary of defense in the Reagan administration: &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&amp;ldquo;I wholeheartedly endorse this plan as a responsible and forward looking plan for ending the war in Iraq. As Burner and her colleagues correctly note, bringing our troops home is the first, but not the only step that must be taken to ensure a debacle like Iraq never happens again.  This plan addresses the root causes that allowed the Bush Administration to lead this country into this mess, and sets us in the right direction. I applaud their efforts on this ambitious and sound strategy. This is progressive strength on national security in action.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
