Thread: Tancredo in 08?

He has to be a Get er' done type of guy because there is lots to get done thanks to Bush and his amigos!

Here's the thing......................

The media and the lobbies are pushing these people--McCain and Giuliani--in front of us. There like: "Here, its good for you!!" Like a parent trying to force-feed a child green beans. The public is simply not charged up for these bums. There's a void. A SERIOUS vacuum that needs to be filled. The media dares not speak it but there is a 400 lb gorilla in the room. That gorilla, ladies and gentlemen, is immigration. Even the voters don't know it on a conscious level, but in their gut they know something is wrong with McCain and Giuliani. Mark my words: Neither one of these bums will get the nomination. The sponsor of the largest amnesty bill in history and a lisping liberal? C'mon. The conservative primary voters are DYING for someone to speak to their concerns. Like I said, they may not know it on a conscious level, but immigration is the issue they want adressed. Tom will step up and deal with that issue. He will acknowledge the 400 lb gorilla. He will fill the void, fill the vacuum.

Bear-

I sure hope you are right. I think McCain is going to fall out and soon. But I am not sure about Guiliani.

Don't get me wrong, I am a supporter of Tancredo's and sure wish he would get more air time and coverage. I agree with everyone else here, getting our candidates more publicity is crucial. How do we do it?

Maybe we can all write to Lou Dobbs suggesting that he put Tancredo on his show every time he does a "Broken Borders" segment. Dobbs listens to his viewers. Its why he started his campaign against outsourcing--because so many viewers had written him about losing their jobs.

Lou makes me wonder sometimes. He is a smart man, and yet, in my opinion, does not give enough air time to Tancredo or Hunter. The last time he had Hunter on (or at least the last time that I saw it), he gave Hunter a hard time. Why???? Does Dobbs have aspirations of his own? Why would he intentioanlly not follow through?

And if we can get some celebrity endorsements, I think that would help too. Maybe Charlie Daniels, Ted Nugent, Toby Keith, Ben Stein(?) All of this talk about moving primaries up makes me nervous.

I agree. Thing is, immigration touches all of these issues!! Tom should go into the environmental damage on the border in Arizona. The damage of our air, water, and land quality from adding millions of undocumented Third Worlders to our nation every year. The crime, the wage depression, the education and tax burdon--issues "soccer mom's" care about!!

True. I have actually had conversation on the net with people who outright don't trust the man. They say he is a "pressure valve" for our concerns, but will not do anything to bring about change. I hope not. At very least he educates people who would otherwise think the Wall Street Journal is the end-all-be-all on the issue of globalism. I would not be able to hold my own on the issue without the guy.

Exactly, and we need to get EXCITED and stay EXCITED and push for him . Instead of saying How can we climb such a big mountain? We need to be saying how fast can we climb that mountain? It will take dedication and motivation. We should write Glen Beck, Lou Dobbs etc. and exhaust all avenues at our disposal. The more ideas thrown out for us to act on the better!!! We should use the same type of motivation and determination we use against illegal immigration on this site, if we truly want Tom or someone like him in the white house.

I wouldn't say that I don't trust him... I just have a few questions for him. I like to hear all the information available and then make my own choices. I won't follow anyone blindly, and I hope that no one else does either.

Tom likened his bid for the presidency to "David and Goliath."

Well, we all know who won that one

I am going to write Lou and Glenn. Is everyone with me?

Yes David surprised everyone, except God who was with him and led him to Victory. I will write Lou and Glenn and I hope others do as well. Any one with any other ideas please let it be known so we can act on those as well. All input is appreciated!
