Republican Economist Wanniski Endorses Kerry

Oct. 28 (Bloomberg) -- Jude Wanniski, who coined the phrase
"supply-side" economics to champion Republican tax cuts as a way to
stimulate growth, endorsed Democrat John Kerry for president, citing
President George W. Bush's decision to invade Iraq.

"The one big reason why I will vote for Senator Kerry next Tuesday is
that he is an internationalist, as am I," Wanniski, 68, told clients
in a note on his Web site. "Mr. Bush has become an imperialist -- one
whose decisions as commander-in-chief have made the world a more
dangerous place."

Wanniski, a political economist who helped design the tax cuts
Congress enacted after Ronald Reagan became president in 1981, said
his vote for Kerry will be his first for a Democratic presidential
candidate since 1964, when President Lyndon Johnson defeated
Republican Barry Goldwater.
