It’s almost shocking to see someone deliver comments like that anymore.

You know (and I know you know), we need to get behind people who are a little less flashy, and push them into higher office.

Why are we wasting our time on people like McQuieg, Romney, the Huckster, and others, when we have a guy that is rock solid on the issues? Hunter is the go to guy. He was last year too.

He won’t get a moment’s coverage in the media, but you know what, they won’t give him that moment because he’s exactly who we should be championing. He’s been around a long time. He’s solid on the issues. What more do we want?

Hunter/DeMint/Inhofe.....when Sarah gets lined up with these three, she’ll be headed in the right direction. Anything less is a waste of time and this nation.

“Hunter needs more visibility—he should do more policy papers like this and get them published.”

It’s not just the mainstream media who won’t put Hunter’s words out there....why is this article delegated to “Bloggers”??? Michael Jackson gets front page, but Hunter??

That’s my desire. Let’s hope she isn’t enticed by the ‘middle ground’ like so many others have been.

I wish Hunter would run for U.S. senator, so he has a better chance to become POTUS.

“I think Rep. Hunter should run for the Senate in 2010, and write a best seller in his spare time to get back into the public eye.”

Good ideas.

My problem with that is if he wanted to stay in Congress, then he should have stayed put. He was invaluable as the chairman, then ranking republican, of the HASC. He was the one who saved our military from much stupidity from people like Slick Willie, McCain, Kerry, Pelosi, and even GWB on occasion.

I see what you’re saying about wishing he were still there, but since he now IS out of Congress, why not run for U.S. Senator?

It’s a step down to be a freshman senator.

But he’ll still be very effective in protecting our country, and we NEED him, now more than ever!

I agree. He needs to become president.

Hey Sun! Thanks. Several others have said that he should go directly to running for President because people are finally waking up. Raster said Rep. Hunter was the one of the few who kept his day job during his run in ‘08. An honorable man, just think of that, America! And I agree that it would be easier on him not to be tied down with one of those again.

At any rate, the very idea of Rep. Hunter back in the race has improved my blood circulation immensely! :o)

I cried when Hunter dropped out, literally.

The foolish people who vote for sound bites are ruining our country. Will they ever learn?

Now, five months before the expiration of the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (which was signed in l97l) President Obama has agreed with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to further cut the deployed nuclear warhead levels to no more than 1,675 for each country.
START I is part of the Reagan legacy and agenda, and was signed around 1991.
