Music legend, Wyclef Jean will headline the Got Your 6 & Lifetime event in Tampa, FL on August 29, 2012, during the Republican National Convention.  Special guest, Meghan McCain will be signing copies of her new book America, You Sexy Bitch.  The event also features veteran-focused nonprofit, The Mission Continues, a lead partner of the Got Your 6 campaign.

All proceeds raised during the events will benefit Got Your 6, which collaborates with more than two dozen non-profit activation partners dedicated to supporting veterans via programs focused on Jobs, Housing, Education, Family, Health and Leadership. Lifetime Television’s Your Life. Your Time. Your Vote. campaign leverages the network’s media assets to encourage women to vote, lead and run in the 2012 election and beyond.
