No
Tell all of your friends & family about the REAL conservative candidates. Passion can go a long way.
GO DUNCAN HUNTER!!!
Someone send out a Hunter ping!
I've been reading up on the candidates and so far Duncan Hunter is the one I like the most.
And look where it's gotten us.
And we'll do it again.
Well, SOME of us will. Some of us won't. There has to be a point where you abandon a losing strategy. The "lesser of two evils" just gets us to the cliff a couple of hours later.
Brownback is already lagging behind the herd due to that self inflicted wound.
Yes, as was Jimmah Carter. Get some $$ to your conservative choice for the nomination and let's make some noise.
The MSM and RINO establishment won't give him the time of day, so it'll be up to US to make this thing happen.
We had a popular Conservative as POTUSA.
Next was a one term moderate.
Next was a two term traitor, who some people think was conservative.
Next was a two term moderate that squeaked by because the democrats nominees were very bad.
Now some people want a far left winger as the Republican nominee that most real democrats can beat because they can run to the right of any of them.
I bought 2 Hunter shirts.
My 17 year old son will be wearing one to school next week.
the media is trying it's damdest to influence our choices early in the game because liberals know they could live with McCain, Gulliani or Romney if DemoRats would somehow lose the election. There is little distinct difference between those candidates. As the article notes, they are all very similar in their records. And we should not have to settle for watered down representation when we can have the best representation that protects America's core values and the Constitution.
There is no better time for the party to show some unity and get the candidate that, in a Reagan fashion, could rally the conservatives to re-gain control of the GOP.
The MSM is having a Presidential Candidate Draft on our behalf. But they are not the choosers. We the people have DIRECT control of who we choose. But it is up to us to clear the smokescreens and show America we will do better if we quit settling for popularity and actually hold an election based on core principle, truth, and justice.
The MSM is attempting to lead us away from those potential candidates that threaten the liberal agenda. Those candidates are the ones we should seek. Protecting our 1st and 2nd Amendment rights should be our foremost considerations. Duncan Hunter is a prime candidate.
Excellent point
If the Republicans have to become Democrats to get elected, then what's the sense in voting for a Republican? It only creates the illusion that we're standing our ground.
The best long term strategy is to maintain faith in true conservative principles and actively support the most authentic candidates. It may lose one elections in the short run, but produce major victories, like Reagan, in the long run.
You're absolutely right...it seems the GOP and Media have already made up their minds and DUNCAN HUNTER, surprise, surprise, IS NOT listed among their choices. No doubt in my mind WHATSOEVER, that this has to do with OPEN BORDERS and the power of the OBL, who are going to try and keep him and his message buried as long as they can.
If Duncan Hunter wants to be in the running he's going to have to get more face time and his stand on the issues, especially OPEN BORDERS, known, because KEY to his success is going to be education the American people!! The only shows who seem to be covering the BP story are DOBBS and BECK. Hunters got things in the works, but as presidential candidate, I'm disappointed that we are not seeing him nearly as much as we should/could. Instead I see Rohrbacher, Poe, and Tancredo. Everyday new information is coming out about this case...Hunter should be taking the LEAD, not playing silent partner in his effort to fix this situation. Time and the GOP/OBL are against him.
