| Description | Reagan's UN Ambassador Endorses Dr. Alan Keyes
As for Keyes' Senate bid, he received the endorsement Thursday of Jeane Kirkpatrick, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, who first brought Keyes to prominence in the early 1980s by naming him one of her deputies. "I have a very high regard for Alan Keyes, and as someone with more than a casual interest in Illinois, I have been pleased by the fact that he is running for the Senate from the state of Illinois," said Kirkpatrick, who is from Southern Illinois. Keyes was the U.S. representative to the UN's Economic and Social Council under Kirkpatrick, and later, he was the State Department's highest-ranking black official, in charge of policy on international organizations such as the UN. While at the UN, he argued in favor of the Reagan administration's anti-Communist policies and led delegations to UN conferences on women and population. |
