Bill Richardson to Speak at Camden Conference

The theme of the 25th annual Camden Conference, kicking off Friday the 17th, is "The U.S. in a 21st Century World: Do We Have What it Takes?" To help answer the question will be a series of high-profile speakers that are heavily involved with global affairs. They range from Deborah Amos, who covers the Middle East for NPR, Colonel Mark Mykleby of the Marine Corps, and keynote speaker Bill Richardson, the former governor of New Mexico and presidential candidate.
