I want to encourage as many conservative Republicans as possible to enter the race. We need lots of solid candidates, and I intend to keep my eye on Duncan Hunter. Thanks for bringing him to my attention.

However, the first thing I thought when I saw his picture was, "untelegenic". I'm sorry, but the reality today is that a person needs to really shine on the TV in order to have a chance. Next to Hillary, Hunter will look like lint unless he gets an image consultant. He's got boring white male written all over him, and no amount of earth tones will be able to change that. He makes Al Gore look like Prince Charming.

Not that it's right, mind you. What a sorry state when image outranks substance. But it's the world we live in, and we need to face this.

I'm sorry about your comment about being 'telegenic'. If you ever see him he looks like the Army Ranger he was, the armed services chairman he was, the man you could look to to keep America safe. And do we really care about lipstick on a pig Hillary in these times of war? Hunter is extremely impressive if you watch him and maybe not in the Brad Pitt way you seem to think, maybe we need a pretty boy?! But in the keep you safe, impressive, Presidential way.
