okay, you will vote for hunter or tancredo, but who are you going to vote if none of these 2 wins the GOP nomination ?? If it's McCain vs the Dem winner, who will you vote for ? Illegal immigration is my number 2 concern, number one is the war. I used to post on democraticunderground, but all they do is bashing Republicans, I bash Republicans too, but not all the time, like they do

I guess I'll have to cross that bridge when I come to it. Most likely, I'll write in my vote. I definetly won't vote for a Democrat and I won't vote for McCain because he is a Democrat in a Republican wrapper.

Come on, vote a Demcorat. We'll care about you too. I like to see Gore as president, but I think Obama or Hillary wins

We need to be careful of the Democrats as President Clinton gave major criminals pardons and an amnesty for illegals when he left office. They are also looking as allowing 12 million illegals stay here. If Hilary (or Shankles as the Secret Service Agents called her) gets in she will also allow illegals to stay. Immigration is a big issue for me in many ways. First of all I came here from Canada and did so legally which cost me a small fortune and it pisses me off to think that these people who came here illegally are being rewarded for their criminal activity such as working here illegally or with fake ID for starters. I have seen too much of thier lack of assimilation as I live in South Florida. Many also have no respect for our laws as they drive without a local driver's license and insurance which is illegal, work with no or fake ID, and are here illegally to begin with.

Well personally. I don't want any of the Elites from either party to run this county. It is time for a 3rd party to put back Checks and balances.

I could not agree more with your statement we need a 3rd party ...Our first to parties seem to be the same these days...I quess now we really have one big party...and a third party would really be more like a second party

I saw an article yesterday in which Gore stated that he is NOT running.

Bring on the third party. We desparately need them.

But he can change his mind. America needs him and when he realizes that, he will announce that he'll run.

America needs Al Gore as President like we need bird flu, another 20 million illegal immigrants and a Shi'ite Muslim Supreme Court.
