Hunter Pledges To Build Border Fence In Six Months

"When we finished doing that fence, murders dropped dramatically. ... It has literally saved lives. ... Crime went down 53 percent." Knowing his fence is a success, Hunter had some words for CNN's Wolf Blitzer over his characterization of the fence. "I have to keep reminding Wolf Blitzer that that our fence is not that little straggly fence they show all the time on CNN. I have said that if someone can climb my fence, we need to sign them up for the Olympics,"

A little difficult to read (needs some paragraphs) but a great article on anti-illegal immigration and Duncan Hunter. Man oh man I wish this guy would come up in the polls. He's still my first and best choice.

“Man oh man I wish this guy would come up in the polls.”

Keep on spreading the word and he surely will.

I love the idea that someone would build the fence, but [and I hate to throw a wet blanket on this] where is he going to get the money for this. Congress controls the checkbook and if they will not realse the funds for this majorly needed project, then it is all hot air for us...

Does anyone know what shape the Hunter campaign is in? There seems to be a concious new blackout on his campaign. I would like to see him make the first cut at least, so he would have an opportunity to directly confront Rudy, Thompson, Romney, and RINO...erm...McCain.

I haven't heard any rumors or anything to evaluate his chances. I merely note how little time he is given during the debates even compared to Huckabee and Brownbeck.

Kind of "p's" me off.

They have the money allocated for it. They’re just sitting on it.

What Hunter should do to gain noteriety:

Attend the debate: Use the first question as a segway/rant into how the only important issue for him would be a border fence. He will have to talk over the moderating communist to do this.

If he sits there and answers his position on Issue A for 15 seconds he’s spinning his wheels. People will notice him more if he’s more brazen and forceful with the debates.

If I am right that money were re-allocated for some other border type perject and not for the fence any more. Anyway congress has to relsease those funds [if they exist any more] anyway, and I don’t see that happening anytime this century....

Now waiting for the Hunter-bashers to come in and carp about the “issues” and “reality”!

Paragraphs are your friend...

Good thread, but to go a bit beyond the Evening Bulletin’s report, the personal count of an attender had the crowd at 160, not about 100, 2nd Amendment and conservatives who attended specifically to hear Rep. Hunter speak.

The Bulletin failed to report that he addressed far more than just the illegal immigration-open border situation. According to their response, the crowd liked what Duncan Hunter had to say. He will likely make a return appearance in the near future.

Duncan is not going to come up in the polls. He simply has no campaign and he’s about as exciting as a sponge.

I would love to see him as head of homeland security though.

>People will notice him more if he’s more brazen and forceful with the debates.<

I don’t think there is a problem with people noticing Duncan Hunter in the debates, try as the moderators will to ignore him. His natural statesman-like approach, his good manners, and the substance of what he says stands starkly out from the rest of the field.

Brazen and “in your face” forcefulness is not his style, thank goodness. But I’d rather have the wheel in Duncan Hunter’s hands than in the hands of anyone else for the next two treacherous presidential terms, thank you.

“The Bulletin failed to report that he addressed far more than just the illegal immigration-open border situation.”

I’m sure he did address many more issues. I’m just thankful they are not ignoring him, or saying he should just give up.

>I’m just thankful they are not ignoring him, or saying he should give up.<

I certainly agree with that. :)

As much as I agree with you, we could be classified as domestic terrorist for that action[s]. [gee thanks congress & Mr. president for that]

I think that as WE the People of this country probley need to take matters into our own hands and do it ourselves, and cut the goverment out of it. Heck we could probly do it for less cost than the goverment could do anyway!

I like Mr. Hunter. I too hope and pray for his rise in the polls. I spread the word about him every chance I have, and I encourage everyone I speak with to do likewise.
