WASHINGTON-A bipartisan collection of 741 former senior national security leaders, comprised of over 230 general and flag officers including 15 retired four-star generals and admirals, 10 cabinet secretaries, 10 service secretaries, and 148 ambassadors, today endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to serve as president of the United States. Organized by National Security Leaders for America, the group characterized the election as “a choice between serious leadership and vengeful impulsiveness. It is a choice between democracy and authoritarianism.” In the letter, the group says Vice President Harris will “make an excellent Commander-in-Chief.”
