THEODORE B. OLSON ENDORSES JOHN MCCAIN FOR PRESIDENT
ARLINGTON, VA -- U.S. Senator John McCain's presidential campaign today announced that former Solicitor General Theodore B. Olson has endorsed John McCain for president. Mr. Olson will serve as Co-Chairman of the McCain Judicial Advisory Committee.
"I have long admired John McCain for his courage, character, and integrity," said Mr. Olson. "He is the candidate best prepared to lead as commander in chief from day one. John McCain has a deep-rooted conservative philosophy and I trust him to appoint strict constructionists, like Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Scalia, Thomas and Alito, to judicial positions."
John McCain thanked Mr. Olson for his support, stating, "Ted Olson is among our nation's most distinguished experts on the rule of law. I am honored to have his support, and I look forward to his counsel and leadership on judicial issues."
