I fight for what I believe. If you are not willing to stand up for what you believe, your beliefs are not strong enough. - Sen. Jesse Helms

In his announcement Mr. Dodd said, “We are pleased to include Ambassador Bolton in our roster of distinguished lecturers. We look forward to hearing his unique insights on US diplomacy and the work of the United Nations. Over the last decade, the Jesse Helms Lecture Series has presented leaders in government, business, media and the faith community to deliver public lectures on the issues of the day for students and citizens. These free lectures have offered rare opportunities to hear directly from people who are involved in the biggest issues of our time. We consider these lectures an integral part of the Helms Center’s educational mission.”

Ambassador Bolton is a graduate of Yale University and Yale School of Law. He has had a distinguished and varied career in private practice and in public service. Before he became US Ambassador to the United Nations he was Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security. In previous administrations he held such posts as Assistant Secretary for International Organization Affairs at the Department of State; Assistant Attorney General, Department of Justice; Assistant Administrator for Program and Policy Coordination, U.S. Agency for International Development; and General Counsel, U.S. Agency for International Development. The Ambassador has also been Senior Vice President of the American Enterprise Institute.

Mr. Dodd also noted in his announcement that Ambassador Bolton earned the respect and friendship of Senator Helms when the Senator was head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee because the Ambassador understood the importance of protecting the sovereignty of the United States. Since his appointment in August of this year, Ambassador Bolton has been actively promoting a reform agenda at the United Nations that was first set in motion with the passage of the Helms-Biden Bill in 1999.

At the time of Ambassador Bolton’s appointment, Senator Helms stated,

“Given the challenges faced by the U.N. as we learn more about the Oil- for-Food scandal and other abuses by UN officials, John Bolton is the right man to represent the United States in its efforts to carry on the much-needed reforms of the United Nations.”

Mr. Dodd added that, “Leaders like John Bolton understand the principles championed by Senator Helms and have stepped forward to take the helm and assure that our country will remain free and strong, faithful to a commitment of moral leadership and to the principle that all people should be able to live without fear of oppression.”

Previous speakers in the Jesse Helms Lecture Series include former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher; Nobel Laureates Dr. Henry Kissinger and the Dalai Lama; Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas; publisher Malcolm Forbes, Jr.; Franklin Graham, founder of Samaritan’s Purse and president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association; Jack Valenti, president of the Motion Picture Association of America; former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright; and the current Secretary of State, Dr. Condoleezza Rice.

On-going programs of the Helms Center include the Free Enterprise Leadership Conference for high school students, the Laws of Life Essay competition, teacher training seminars, workshops for college students and young professionals interested in foreign policy, the Helms Forum for business leaders and professionals, and the archives. Recently the Helms Center and Liberty University’s Helms School of Government announced a new collaborative effort to create a comprehensive resource of original papers and oral histories related to the rise of the modern conservative movement.
