Description

"Many of the facts Ken first reported were later confirmed to me and my colleagues in classified briefings."

- from the Preface by U.S. Representative Christopher Cox (R-Calif.)

Selling Out America traces the whole story of Bill Clinton’s corrupt relationship to Communist China as president, from the reporter who broke these stories and ultimately ran for the United States Senate to bring greater awareness to the dangers facing America.

"I have spent much of the past six years investigating the Clinton administration's sell-off of our military technology to Communist China. During this time, I learned more about corruption than I ever would have believed possible.

"But the corruption was not limited to the White House, or even to a single political party: it spread throughout the upper echelons of American society, reaching Members of Congress, intelligence community analysts, top business leaders, and the media.

"When a Congressional commission uncovered evidence that China had gained access to U.S. nuclear secrets through espionage, the Washington Post assigned a journalist to cover the story whose wife was a Clinton administration political appointee.

"China's nuclear espionage and the way it was misreported by the main media is part of a deeper and ultimately more dangerous trend: China's concerted efforts through corruption, trade, and investment to entwine U.S. interests so thoroughly with those of the PRC that no future President will dare to contain China's military might, because of the unacceptable military and economic costs to America. The emergence of Communist China as a world power, armed with U.S. help, will be President Clinton's ultimate legacy. How to counter it will be one of the greatest challenges facing his successor."

Selling Out America shows what we knew of Clinton's secret plans to arm communist China, when we knew it, and how little of this knowledge ever leaked out into the mainstream.
