Goebbels' Children

WASHINGTON, March 11 - President Bush will nominate one of his closest confidantes, Karen P. Hughes, to lead an effort at the State Department to repair the image of the United States overseas, particularly in the Arab world, administration officials said Friday. She will also be a leader in publicizing the president's campaign for democracy in the Middle East. Ms. Hughes, 48, is to be named next week as Mr. Bush's choice to be under secretary of state for public diplomacy and public affairs, a position that requires Senate confirmation. Ms. Hughes, who has been a major influence in producing the message Mr. Bush presents to the public, will now tackle what administration officials say is the extremely difficult job of selling the United States and its policies to the world after the anger over the American-led invasion of Iraq.
