Francois
Ho and President Bush and Jim Talent
ST. LOUIS (Monday, March 18) - Seeking to wrest control of the U.S. Senate from the Democrats, President Bush raised $1.5 million on Monday for Republican Jim Talent's campaign to unseat Democratic Sen. Jean Carnahan.
"I'm here to support as strongly as I possibly can this good man," Bush told about 1,200 donors who were asked to pay $1,000 each to dine on lemon garlic chicken and sauteed asparagus washed down by Chardonnay and Merlot wines.
Led by Francois Ho, Thomas Wong and Matthew Yu, about 70 Asian, including Chinese Americans, Taiwanese Americans, and Vietnamese Americans joined the March 18 fund-raising dinner party at America Center to show their support to President Bush and Jim Talent. Ho, Wong and Yu were invited to a private party to meet with the President Bush before the dinner.
