  Right Web | Profile | William Kristol
William Kristol, son of neoconservative progenitor Irving Kristol and an important leader of the political faction in his own right, is editor of the Weekly Standard, which is widely considered the preeminent publication of contemporary neoconservatism and an influential forum in Washington politics during the George W. Bush presidency.
Kristol was also the cofounder (along with another neocon scion, Robert Kagan) of the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), a pressure group created in the late 1990s by a passel of prominent neoconservatives and foreign policy hawks.
Kristol then ran the unsuccessful 1988 U.S. Senate campaign in Maryland of Alan Keyes, a conservative Republican and Kristol's former graduate school roommate who was part of a team of rightists hired by Paul Wolfowitz to serve in the first Reagan administration's State Department policy planning staff.
