UNDATED (WSAU-Wheeler News) Governor Scott Walker has hired advisers to help him bone-up on foreign policy, as he considers running for president next year. It was just a week ago when the Republican Walker refused to touch foreign policy questions asked by members of a prestigious British think tank. His national political group Our American Revival says Walker has brought in Mike Gallagher to advise him on international hot-spots — and Kristin Jackson to work on domestic policy.
Gallagher is a staffer with the U-S Senate’s Foreign Relations Committee. Jackson has served as an aide to former Florida Congressman Connie Mack. She most recently worked for a Washington communications and public relations firm.
Yesterday’s announcements came on the same day that Walker hired staffers in New Hampshire, where the nation’s first primaries will take place less than a year from now.
