Uh, Duncan Hunter has already made stopping illegal immigration part of his campaign. All Tancredo will do is split up the conservative vote in the GOP primaries. As a candidate, Hunter is heads and shoulders above Tancredo.

As much as I like Tancredo and appreciate how much he has done I will support Hunter. Tancredo will have trouble explaining why he avoided the draft in the Vietnam era. I heard the situation a year ago but I don't remember the details. At thata time I said that Tancredo would never make it as a candidate. A Dim could get away with it (a la Klinton) but never a Pubbie.

Tancredo was abused by his father. In his late teens and early adulthood, Tancredo was treated for depression. Receiving treaments for depression enabled Tancredo to be exempted from the draft.

Hunter's got his official campaign site. He only has a link for contributions for now but he will need them. My money and support is going to Hunter as well.
