Will you please answer my question?
Jay Leno may have 6 million viewers but one appearance on a late night talk show does not make a LEGITIMATE candidate.
Other than the fan fare on Free Republic, the hit pieces by the MSM and the exposure from Sean Hannity, I don’t really know a damn thing about Fred Thompson. His whole demeanor regarding his bid for the president has been in the shadows staying “safe” one appearance on Jay Leno.
Is that it? He announces on Leno then returns to stealth mode? Are you suggesting the average American voter (who couln’t name the sectary of state) will have the motivation to actually research Thompson? I consider myself politically engaged and like I said I really can’t tell you too damn much about the great white Fred. Its annoying. P.S. I know I will receive lots of links to Fred’s website but, I’m talking about the general population...When exactly will we actually hear from Fred himself? Or does he expect all the voters to elect him by text message? (sarc)

I believe Ron Paul has that market cornered.

This is not the elections from when we were kids.

We’re dealing with a society that thinks what’s reported on The Daily Show is legitimate factual news.

Gone are the days that candidates are made and broken with an interview with Cronkite or Chancellor or Brinkley.

For one the internet has taken away the hold on news that the networks used to have...and secondly people today don’t trust the MSM.

The other thing you have to realize is that this Presidential election cycle has started almost a year earlier than any other in history.

The Dems and the MSM purposely started this one early to try and gain an advantage. Which also explains why you see primary elections happening earlier than ever before.

When Sen. Thompson announced is the TRADITIONAL time that most presidential candidates announce they are running.

Fred didn’t start late...the others started way early.

Mr Thompson has already been speaking to the public via his website and a daily radio spot on ABC radio networks.

Don’t fall for the typical he’s an actor crap you will hear from some people.

He was an Asst. U.S. Attorney...an investigator for the Republicans during Watergate...a successful attorney that has fought for the people in corruption cases and a U.S. Senator.

He is for border security...a strong military...pro 2nd Amendment...pro WoT and against out of control gov’t spending.

Fred will run this electiona s he sees fit...not the way the Media and Liberals think he should run it.
