    Tancredo Qualifies For Federal Matching Funds

    (AP) DENVER Republican presidential hopeful Tom Tancredo has qualified to begin receiving matching federal funds, bolstering his campaign at least through the first group of primaries, a campaign spokesman said Thursday.

    The Colorado congressman, who has built his bid on an anti-illegal immigration platform, raised $3.4 million as of Thursday, campaign spokesman Alan Moore said.

    "It should extend the campaign through the early primaries," he said. "It all depends on momentum and how we do in Iowa, of course."

    In the early 1970s, Congress created a public financing system for presidential elections to reduce dependence on money from individual donors and groups. Primary candidates get a matching amount of public money based on their fundraising.

    To qualify, a candidate must collect at least $100,000 with donations that include $5,000 raised in each of 20 states.

    Tancredo needs to a web broadcast. Are those expensive? He never gets any time during the debates. He does not have the money for TV commericals and lets face it the networks would not want him on anyway. If he could just get out there and reach americans, anything he would say would bring him a vote.

    I asked his office the other day if he was doing TV ads. They said he was doing these in the states that had primaries. Like Iowa....
    I would love to see these all across America... so people would know the truth!
    Please help save America for our children and grandchildren... they are counting on us. THEY DESERVE the goodness of AMERICA not to be given to those who are stealing our children's future! ... and a congress who works for THEM!
