Republican presidential candidate Tom Tancredo Sunday blasted the credentials of two of his Republican rivals, calling into question both Rudy Giuliani and Sam Brownback’s commitment to securing U.S. borders from illegal immigration.

Tancredo was in Ames to open a campaign office and seek support from Iowans in his bid to make a good showing at the Ames Straw Poll, on Aug. 11.

Tancredo said before the event that he is running for president because no one else has as strong a commitment on illegal immigration as he does.

He said Giuliani’s has undermined his commitment to illegal immigration by his efforts to make New York a “sanctuary cityâ€

good for him..

I am sorry he isn't getting the coverage he needs.

I like TANCREDO and PAUL.

I know guilan-i is in the pockets of special interests (he will support NAU, I'm sure and amnesty ) and thompson is an unknown in the sense that he talks a good game but to be honest, I really can't trust anyone.. Romney is a flip-flopper.

Back in the good old days (Pre Grey Davis ejection)Tom Tancredo was the lone voice on the hill roaming the halls trying to get other senators and congressmento pay attention to the immigration nonissue. He was scoffed at and treated as if he had the plague and Bad rash combined.

He tirelesly appeared on talk shows and the like beating th drum trying to get the general public to wake up and fight.

When shades of Grey Davis finaly sunk to new lows and offerd ILG. IMGTS, drivers licences I knew that that was the hook and said so to my wife this is the beginning of a grass roots uprising and Mr. Tancredo was right on it on the talk radio shows.

I dont know what his stance is on other issues and igt is a shame that he has to hustle to get funding to run in a race that he felt compelled to as the only politician with a true understanding and ferver to confront this problem.
I hope that as this fight gors forward, people will give him his due and a true chance to win this election instead of these late coming triangulating oportunistic Chameoleons.

The Sleeping giant must remain awake or be overun by greed deception and Complacency. Tom Tancredo is the man with best interest of this country at heart and has stayed on message for years.

Now adays a good man is hard to find and he is that and more.
More power to him.

I hope that as this fight gors forward, people will give him his due and a true chance to win this election instead of these late coming triangulating oportunistic Chameoleons

.

I do, too. And I feel he IS going to get his due as more people wake up to what we have for choices. Particularly if the Republican Party gets lots of threatened defections unless Tom Tancredo gets the nomination. I do believe that Tancredo could win as we move towards a heightened awareness of this issue and how the other candidates are just putting on a show about it.
