you do know ann coulter has said duncan hunter has no chance of winning and she is focusing on the “non-giuliani” top tier?

How much money does he have left?

If it is less than ronpaul’s five million he does not have the money. respectfully.

It is a repeat of Irey vs Murtha or Harris vs Nelson.

He SHOULD be. I’d love to see this guy sworn in as the next POTUS. With the GOP pushing RINO’s though, it’s gonna be a tough row to hoe...

In light of China launching to the moon, let's remember this piece by Alexander J. Madison: Dragon Hunter.

I'd love to see DH get some traction, but truthfully, I don't see him gaining any ground.

He just started from the wrong place. A Kalifornia Republican whose name is not Reagan is almost invisible.

But anyone of the top tier who gets the nod would strengthen their ticket tremendously by picking DH as their Veep. I could live with that.

Duncan Hunter is the only one who would stomp any democrat!

A few of the others might squeak by in a close election.

We do need to get his name out more as the way the primaries are set as a fake popularity contest based mostly on name recognition.

Duncan Hunter comes closest to what I wanted to see as the Repub. nominee. But, reality must set in (and has with me): he can’t get traction. Too bad he getting nowhere; but a Thompson/Hunter ticket doesn’t sound bad...

Hunter would make a great Secretary of Defense. Likely he is hanging in there to have an endorsement of maximum impact, which might be parlayed into an Cabinet position.

Ah, another Liberal professor analyzing a Republican. Gotta love it.

Let's play, who knows the enemy best. The Long March leaves for the Moon tomorrow:

Favorite Trading Nation? Or threat? Pentagon says threat. Duncan Hunter says threat. What would your candidate do?

Excerpt:

Duncan Hunter: You know this last report on China actually received lots of criticism from the State Department because it was very candid about assessing this enormous growing military strength of China. The assessment of the Pentagon was they are doing so much more then they have to do for self defense. They are building an offensive capability. When they shot that satellite out of space on January 11th, because America’s military eyes are largely in space, that really hurdled a new era of military competition between the U.S. and China in space. Like it or not, if you have to rely on satellites for movement of special forces or army brigades or marine corps divisions, you have to rely on satellites for that, and your satellites are in danger, you are in trouble. So we have our eyes, our military eyes [on China]. Plus a lot of our economic capabilities are reflected through our space apparatus. You have to protect that. We are going to have to spend a lot of money now and take a lot of effort to neutralize what is an aggressive Chinese policy in regard to space.

Hugh Hewitt: Let’s talk about the media and China. I asked you about this on the radio yesterday, how many questions have you had about China in the course of the Campaign. You have been on the trail for how long?

Duncan Hunter: We have had 4 congressional debates now and we have been out campaigning hard this entire year. We had one great question, I think it came from either Brit Hume or one of his team, during the Fox debate in the South Carolina, last question of the debate to me on China. I was able to give, you only have one minute answer, I try to be a master on the compact answers, I laid out that we have this cheating on trade which is stacking up billions to China and they are using this money to arm. This presents a long term challenge to the United States. Maybe not a direct threat; but a military threat is comprised of two things, capability and intent. They certainly are building a capability to cause us a lot of harm. And the intent of China is always difficult to understand.

Those tough old communists that ran the Poly Bureau are still running things. We see these generals make wild statements like, “We hope you value L.A. more than you do Taiwan”. That is a thinly veiled threat to nuke L.A. Then there will be a flurry of newspaper statements by people saying well, ‘general so and so didn’t mean it’. Well I hope general so and so is pretty far away from that nuclear trigger. Because that is a wild statement. You see those wild statements that came out of Yunnan Island where the American plane was shot down or was forced down, and the wild statements that came out of there diplomacy core after that were tempered by their trade people. But it shows us there is a element of leadership that is embedded in the Chinese hierarchy that is very aggressive, very anti American and very war like. It is difficult to know which element of the Chinese leadership is going to dominate the government in 5 years.

Marshal Xu Xiangqian

Long March Leaders

Marshal Xu Xiangqian

Xu Xiangqian (pronounced Shu Shee-ang-Chee-an) was from Jiangxi Province. He was a fine general with Zhang Guotao's Fourth front Army. He was Zhang's principle commander with Ye Jianying as Chief of Staff. A split developed between Zhang's forces and Chairman Mao's First Front Army. The Fourth Front Army numbered about 80,000 combat troops and about 80,000 noncombatant personnel. Mao's forces numbered about 10,000 at that time. It was a very dangerous moment in the history of the Party. One Red Army was about to attack another. After Mao's Red Army slipped away to avoid the trouble after being warned by General Ye Jianying, Xu was told, "That a strange thing has happened. The First Army has pulled out. Shall we attack and go after them?" Xu replied, "Have you ever seen the Red Army attacking the Red Army?" That was it. There was to be no attack.

Both Xu and Ye Jianying got credit for stopping a serious conflict. Xu eventually left Zhang's Army and joined Mao in Yan'an. He was named one of China's Ten Marshals in 1955. Because of the stopping of the conflict, Mao protected Xu during the worst of the Cultural Revolution.

>> Hunter still upbeat about presidential bid

I’m not sure unrealistic expectations, lack of foresight, and delusions of grandeur are the mark of a good President.

The end of Hunter’s campaign is drawing near ... it shant be long before Hunter follows Sam Brownback down the road of realism.

Truly a great man. Grounded. Solid. Presidential.

We'll see if we are still a great enough nation to deserve him as our leader. Or if we'll be taking another trip to celebrity-ville and letting the media decide for us.

I fear the only man who would do something about our bad trade treaty with China, and China’s threat to America is Duncan Hunter, the man they say cannot win the nomination.

When the election is over, just watch the China chatter quiet down, no matter which Party wins. Then China will be quietly calling all the shots in America.

I just sent him a donation.

He is far and away the best candidate in the race.

Did you read his debate responses? Awesome.

He’s a real conservative, a real American, a real man.
