Thread: Hunter and Tancredo put America first!

October 9, 2007
Most GOP hopefuls say NASDAQ deal not a security threat
(CNN) — Most of the Republican presidential candidates said in a debate Tuesday that they support a Middle Eastern oil firm's bid for a large stake in a major U.S. stock exchange.

The majority of candidates agreed that the deal sealed earlier this year by oil-rich Borse Dubai for 20 percent of the NASDAQ stock exchange did not impact national security.

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani fielded the question first saying the foreign company should be able to own 20 percent of the stock exchange and that Americans should support foreign-domestic deals "if they are considered to be safe. If they pass safety and security clearances," he said.

The deal was highly scrutinized by the financial and political community opposed to foreign ownership of U.S. businesses.

"But you just can't rule out foreign companies. There's a whole procedure you go through as to whether or not are they safe. Are they secure? We cannot stop doing business with the rest of the world," Giuliani added.

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, once a businessman and venture capitalist, responded enthusiastically.

"Of course, you let a country invest in the United States,â€

This is the a major problem I have with the Libertarians. Not only is mirror trade in question and vague with other countries, they want "free trade", furthermore foriegners whether ok or not should not be able to buy our infastructure, period.

Just food for thought even if we had a mirror trade policy with Dubai, the arabs emirate (whatever), does anyone think they would allow our corporations buy some of their infastructure?

LOL Gotta love Tom. Yes, I watched this, and each and every candidate was for the Dubai deal except Tom and Duncan.

Including a couple who have fans on ALIPAC.

I love Tom Tancredo, Duncan Hunter and Ron Paul.... If I could slam'em all three together and make 1 candidate I would be a happy camper

Tancredo and Hunter are the ONLY Republican candidates with a solid history of opposing illegal immigration, and as far as I know, neither has 'globalist' tendencies. I believe either, or better yet- TOGETHER- they will do everything in their power to get this country back on track.

And by the way...
If you didn't get Tom Tancredo's family spaghetti sauce recipe, now is an excellent time to do so.

Ron Paul believes in a "free market" - we don't have that now.

This is what I find incredibly interesting.

You all are getting your panties in a bunch over dubai, yet nobody questions the one "business" in our country in which FOREIGN and UNKNOWN owners exist and nobody cares. THE FEDERAL RESERVE.

If you want to talk about "America first" and NON-Globalist Agenda, then Ron Paul is by FAR head and shoulders above everyone else. I agree, tom and duncan have better track records on Illegal immigration alone, but to me - those are one-trick ponys.

Ron Paul wants to phase out the IRS and return "sound money" -- the Federal Reserve is a private bank that ISSUES america's money. This should be on ALL of your agendas.

I don't get many of you, you are all looking at the symptoms and not the cause.

The "Free market" does not make sense if we do not have mirror trade policies with each individual country we trade with. What has Paul stated about mirror trade policies?

I do not think anyone in this forum supports foriegn countries owning any of our infastructure such as the federal reserve, stock exchange, ports etc... and Paul supports muslims, who whites, blacks, etc... are considered unequal, to be allowed to own our exchange system?

The illegal invasion is the primary goal with the globalist agenda and IMO must people here really believe we are in Iraq so the illegals can take over here therefore the Neocons can have an excuse to force the NAU on to Patriots and disolve the Constitution!

I'm on board with that.

The illegal invasion is not a symptom rather the primary excuse to force the NAU on to Patriots and disolve the Constitution.

Because the "majority of candidates" are greedy globalists.

Here are the answers to your questions:

In regards to your "who should own something" - is interesting. Your sentence didn't make sense, so I can't answer it unless you repost it. You mentioned something about muslims and then who whites?? not sure what all that means.

In regards to your illegal immigration not being symptom. It is, and you proved it with your wording. You disagreed with me, yet used the same wording. Illegal immigration is a Piece of the puzzle for the NAU. So illegal immigration is NOT the end plan, but a lever in the equation. It is because of the plan for the NAU that we have illegal immigration (in addition to the gov. wanting all the new people to pay into the ss system because its being robbed because of out of control spending AND to generate a cheap labour market).... BUT we are both agreeing illegal immigration IS NOT the issue in and of itself. Illegal immigration is caused for many reaons and you have to "deal" with those reasons if you want to deal with illegal immigration.
