With illegal immigration as a top issue in the 2008 campaigns and the
possibility of a pro-Amnesty candidate such as John McCain, Rudy
Giuliani, or Mike Huckabee winning the GOP primary, forcing American
voters to choose between two pro-Amnesty candidates, a Draft Lou Dobbs
for President campaign is being launched today by Americans for Legal
Immigration Political Action Committee (ALIPAC) found at www.LouDobbsforPresident.org
"Ninety percent of our supporters are behind either Romney, Thompson,
Paul, or Hunter for President because they appear truly opposed to
Amnesty for illegal aliens," says William Gheen of ALIPAC. "Eighty four
percent of our supporters say they would support Lou Dobbs for
President, if the GOP primary fails to yield a candidate opposed to
Amnesty."
Lou Dobbs has earned national recognition for his tough stance on
Border Security and curbing illegal immigration. While encouraging
voters to register as independents, Dobbs addresses a host of issues
dealing with the economy, trade agreements, election integrity, and
America's middle class that would appeal to Democrats, Republicans, and
Independent voters alike.
The Wall Street Journal reported on January 7 that many people are
dropping Lou Dobbs' name as a potential candidate and that he is a
self-styled "independent populist" who is reluctant to run, but
responds to such suggestions with "I cannot say never"
"Lou Dobbs could run and win because he could easily raise the funds
and grassroots support he needs to be a historic and viable candidate
quickly. The public is eager to rebuke the DC status quo and would
quickly rally to Dobbs," says Gheen. "Our website is designed to allow
people to express their political support for Lou Dobbs, to show Mr.
Dobbs what kind of support is out there, and to have some supporters
organized, if he decides to run."
The website located at www.LouDobbsforPresident.org
has information about Lou Dobbs, a speculative platform, videos, and
allows people to register as volunteers and potential contributors to a
Lou Dobbs for President Campaign.
In the event Lou Dobbs files for office, the website and supporter
information will be presented to Mr. Dobbs as a campaign contribution
by ALIPAC. Until that time, all information collected will be held in
strict confidence.
ALIPAC is one of the largest organizations in America fighting for
secure borders and immigration enforcement, while fighting against
Amnesty and illegal immigration. Founded on 9/11 in 2004, ALIPAC
supporters are active in all 50 states and represent Americans of every
race, party, and many walks of life, which indicates a desire for more
to be done about illegal immigration. For more information please visit
