Former Reagan administration member and one time US presidential candidate Gary Bauer is as a neoconservative Christian Zionist who serves on the executive board of Christians United for Israel headed by John Hagee. Most recently Bauer has joined with other neoconservatives like Bill Kristol to form the Emergency Committee for Israel.
