Tom Tancredo, is not going to run for president because he avoided military service completely during the Vietnam War by claiming a mental-health deferment.

"Tom Tancredo, is not going to run for president...."

Tancredo may, he may not. He knows he isn't going to win, he's only said that about a thousand times. But his running would force other republican candidates to take positions on immigration that they'd rather just avoid, bring it up in the debates and possibly move other more viable candidates to the right on illegal immigration.

I don't remember Vietnam being any issue when Bush beat McCain in 2000.
