The only normal looking guy running for Prez.

I am proud to announce that after reaching an agreement with TCV Media, the consulting firm hired by Duncan Hunter’s campaign, I will be joining the team working on the Duncan Hunter for President campaign, effective Monday, February 19th.
My responsibilities cover both national and state duties. Nationally, I will be working with, and assisting, John Hawkins of RightWingNews.com, who was also recently hired by TCV Media to create internet awareness for Duncan Hunter, utilizing new media resources.
Within New Jersey, as Co-Executive Director, the GOPUSA-NJ Conservatives with Attitude! organization, which has over 12,000 members, will serve as Director of Internet Communications and E-Campaign Coordinator for Duncan Hunter ‘08 for the state of New Jersey.
During the 2004 presidential race, I put to good use my being a 10-year professional athlete in the pro-wrestling and sports entertainment industry. Together with Richard Ross, we started the Pro-Wrestling Republican Coalition.
PWRC was a national organization that brought together from across the Country, professional wrestlers, wrestling fans, promoters, wrestling journalists, and merchandisers, all who supported the Republican Party and the reelection of President George W. Bush. Wrestling Legend The Honky Tonk Man and Dr. Tom Prichard of the WWE served as the group’s National Spokesmen.
In just 6 months leading up to the 2004 election, the PWRC had over 5,000 members, many of whom were first time voters or new to the Republican Party. Now, three years later, the “cobwebs” are happily being removed off of the PWRC and the organization will be starting back up again to support Duncan Hunter for President and to elect conservatives to the House and Senate in 2008.

Who's Duncan Hunter? ;^)
This is good, Duncan is building steady momentum.
GO DUNCAN HUNTER!!!
Cool.
The only normal looking guy running for Prez.
You know, that's really true.
Hewitt will ignore it 'till it affects his ratings. His show is not that great anyway. Hunter's momentum is getting stronger, and that's all that matters. I'm appalled however by all the people who call themselves conservatives who won't even take the time to find out where Hunter stands on the issues. I guess politics has always been that way.
Who is Huge Hewitt?
The next president of the US if we are lucky.
Huge is a good radio talk show host from CA, that has for years trumpeted the efficiency and prominence of the new media, most notably blogs, and how they affect the national debate.
He has not mentioned yet, to my knowledge, that Hunter scooped one of the best, John Hawkins of Right Wing News, and I doubt he sill extol Polipundit's involvement either.
Hugh is a Romney fan.
Not sure. No one has ever heard of the guy, even here. /s

Good news to start the week! The bad news is I am off to work. Will check back later!
Good link. I did not know that one existed. His official presidential homepage has been updated recently as well.
Yep. We need to keep emailing the media, asking for them to put Hunter on, keeping his name on their radar. If enough people do this, they will notice the momentum. They will hate it & try not to acknowledge it, but they will have to notice.
The latest FOX News poll showed that 53% of Republicans want another name out there for Presidential candidate. Let's get Hunter's name out there!
Thanks :)
Just some background info on Hunter and his outspoken nature to go where not many(I don't think any) Republicans go with their spineless nature.
Hunter on Abu Ghraib(courtesyhttp://www.larouchepub.com/other/2004/3128goss_hunter_block.html : )
Probably the single loudest obstructionist voice in the House of Representatives in support of the Cheneyac "Beastman" policy in Iraq has been Armed Services Committee chairman Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.). Hunter has been able to use his position to block any meaningful inquiry into the Abu Ghraib prison scandal and at every public opportunity, has railed against those who are demanding such an investigation. He even went after his GOP counterpart in the Senate, John Warner (Va.), for holding three hearings in two weeks on the scandal, practically accusing Warner of treason.
Under great public pressure, Hunter has since held one hearing, for part of one day, and has no intention of having any more. During debate on the Fiscal Year 2005 Defense Authorization bill, on May 19, Hunter declared, "We have had enormous publicity the last number of days about the mess at Abu Ghraib. I estimated we have probably devoted as much media attention to that mess involving now, as identified, some seven personnel, as we did to the Normandy invasion. And that is an imbalance. It is time to refocus." What did he want to refocus on? "The 135,000 great personnel doing their job in Iraq."
On June 14, when the committee took up a resolution of inquiry sponsored by some 40 Democrats, demanding the Pentagon be more forthcoming with documents relating to the prison scandal, Hunter placed the 6,000 pages of the report on the abuse and torture of prisoners filed by U.S. Army General Anthony Taguba (the Taguba Report) on a table at the head of the hearing room and railed at the Democrats, "Isn't that enough for you?"
Hunter on Guantanamo(courtesy http://washingtontimes.com/upi-breaking/20050613-033125-4935r.htm:)
California Republican Duncan Hunter held a press conference to discuss the treatment of detainees at the island jail, and spent his opening statement going over a daily menu for prisoners that included oven-fried chicken and fresh fruit.
"This is what Osama bin Laden's bodyguards will eat several times a week. Lemon chicken, rice, broccoli, carrots, bread and two types of fruit," Hunter said, inviting a reporter to come eat with him.
Hunter was digging himself out of small hole he got into over the weekend when he said on a news program that the White House is divided over whether to close the jail.
"I think they've come to the conclusion, some members of the White House have come to the conclusion that the legend now, that the legend is different than the fact, and when that's the case you go with the legend that somehow Guantanamo has been a place of abuse and you close it down and you shorten the stories, you shorten the heated debate and you get it off the table and you move on," he said.
