March 25, 2007 -- THE ISSUE: Rudy Giuliani's presidential prospects as an Italian-American candidate.

I will vote for Rudy Giuliani not because he is of Italian decent but because right now, in my opinion, he is the best candidate (" 'Stallion' Rudy," Zev Chafets, PostOpinion, March 21).

On the other hand, there are those who will not vote for Giuliani because he is of Italian decent, and that is sad.

While I obviously understand what Zev Chafets is getting at, it is worth remembering that our current president was beaten in the popular vote by a candidate with a vowel at the end of his name.

Furthermore, while the candidacies of Bob Dole, Walter Mondale and George Wallace are arguable in their viability, the candidacies of Presidents Monroe, Pierce and Coolidge must have certainly seemed "serious" enough at the time.

Here I thought Al Gore was a serious candidate.

I would like to thank Chafets for ending my misconception about Gore's candidacy.

I guess that James Monroe was not a serious candidate, either.

Oh, wait. He became president. I guess he was a nonserious president.

Let me set you on the correct course.

For the first time ever, Italian-Americans will pull together for a presidential candidate.

I am not political, but I have been invited to several get-togethers in the last three months, all formed to support Giuliani.

An overwhelming majority of attendees were Ital- ian-American, and the talk was all the same: Let's not miss this opportunity to elect an Italian-American.

So, yes, there will be a groundswell in the coming months to support Giuliani - political-party affiliation be damned.
