世足委員會將於下月2日宣佈2018及2022世足賽主辦國 前總統柯林頓公佈自己的足球故事 鼓勵國人支持美國爭取主辦權

(11/11/2010)

My Fellow Soccer Fans,

In 1994, I was the first president to watch a World Cup game on American soil.

I'll never forget that day: the beauty of the Game, the roar of the crowd, and the power of soccer to unite people of such diverse backgrounds and beliefs.

These past six months I've worked to bring this incredible experience to millions more Americans as the honorary chairman of the USA Bid Committee. I am proud that my voice has joined yours to tell the entire world that the Game Is In US.

With FIFA's decision less than a month away, we're using every resource available to show we're fully committed to bringing the World Cup to our country -- and our best resource is fans like you.

Will you support this effort with a contribution to the Bid Committee? Any amount you can afford will make a real difference:

From Harlem to Harare, soccer is played in every corner of the planet, but perhaps no nation embodies the spirit of the Game quite like the United States. We are a rich melting pot of cultures and ethnicities; every qualifying nation will feel as though they're playing a home game on our pitch.

Our diversity, our dedication, our unique blend of individual achievement and cooperation -- these traits define both our nation and the game of soccer. A FIFA World Cup™ in the United States in 2022 would be a perfect fit.

We have just 23 days to make this dream a reality. Now is not the time to hold back; now is the time to push on through the final whistle and send FIFA a clear message: The Game Is In US.

Help us send this message as powerfully as we possibly can. Contribute to the Bid today:

Thank you so much for being part of our Bid.

Sincerely,

Bill Clinton
