Suggested Title

I Support Duncan Hunter

Concise and to the point!

Excellent! Nothing like repetition to give Rush more reason to think about Hunter.

[Man50D]

For whatever reason, despite Duncan Hunter’s sterling credentials, he just doesn’t inspire the electorate.

An increasing number of people will disagree with your assessment.

“Duncan Hunter is a good man...but make no mistake, Fred Thompson is a true Conservative as well. Thompson supporters do not tear Duncan Hunter down...why should the Hunter people continue to say that Fred is not a true Conservative?”

I am a strong Hunter supporter and, like you, I have seen people tear down Fred. I look at Duncan and Fred and think, Duncan is better for the world we live in today, so I am going to vote for him. I compare Fred to Rudy, and can not see why anyone would think Fred was not a conservative. I can see why they might think someone else is a better conservative, but I can not see why they think Fred is not conservative.

[Man50D]

I wish Hunter could rise in the polls.

He stands a better chance if you help him.

In the case of Rudy, the reason Rudy is getting a lot of attention is the northeastern bias in the media. The northeastern bias in the media wants two northeasterners to run. Even some of our conservative journalist friends who are headquartered and work in the northeast, in New York and Washington, are willing to overlook, in some cases, the lack of genuine conservatism in some candidates because they're from the northeast.

This is where Rush implies that Rudy and Romney are liberals.

There is not doubt that they are the 2 northeasterners. There is no doubt that Rudy is a liberal.

Even though Romney has recanted his liberalism and converted to conservatism, there's not been enough time as a conservative to prove that it was a true conversion, that it wasn't pure political expediency.

Thompson supporters do not tear Duncan Hunter down

Thompson supporters keep trying to spin facts about him as "tearing him down".

Duncan Hunter will protect us. I like Tancredo very much, but Hunter has been most EFFECTIVE on securing our borders than even Tancredo.

Duncan Hunter actually had a fence built which greatly reduced drug trafficking and crime in San Diego, and Hunter authored the bill for a fence from California thru Texas, which was signed into law.

Hunter says border security is national security.

Hunter got us ABS deployed in Alaska, and Hunter built up the defense that Bill Clinton tore down, and got equipment and weapons to protect our troops, and our country, when he Chaired the House Armed Services Committee (when the Republicans had the majority), and Hunter went to Iraq FIVE times, and Hunter did some tough fighting duty in ‘Nam and won a medal, and HUNTER has a son who did two tours in Iraq, including Fallujah, and is now doing a 3rd tour in Afghanistan.

Yes, Duncan Hunter is the best man to protect us.

I will be emailing Rush as well.

Duncan Hunter.
Say it forward.

Rush is in a pickle.

I say that because he knows that whoever he starts leaning towards, will suddenly become the country’s favorite and become the nominee. But having that kind of power is scary. First of all, Rush BELIEVES in america and democracy and capitalism. And if you BELIEVE in those things, you want the system to work it out on it’s own WITHOUT interference from a super duper incredibly persuasive and influential ANOMALY that is rush limbaugh. Rush is an accident. No one person should have so much sway over public opinion. The only reason he has this power is that our pathetic MSM has been taken over by communists. And our government is nearly taken over by these vermin as well. We are so starved for a leader than we have turned to a TALK RADIO SHOW HOST as a surrogate leader. Everyone is waiting for reagan reincarnate and all we have is rush in the meantime.

So what is rush to do? Presume that he is so infallible as to pick the perfect nominee for the citizens? Or let democracy take it’s course and possibly fail by picking the wrong person?

Maybe rush thinks his purpose is to expose the communists in the MSM for what they are and then point out why and how they are no good for america...then let the people do the rest. This country is, after all, supposed to be “by the people and for the people”. Not “by rush and for rush”.

I have the belief that political candidates have a duty to get noticed themselves.

Rush must not be noticing the almost deliberate ignoring of Hunter by the leftstream media today.

It's difficult to be noticed when they ignore you and cover the moderates and RINO's instead.

As I keep saying, we will have to get him noticed. If you agree that Hunter's message is the best and most conservative, screw the media, get behind him. It is time we tell them who we want and stop letting them tell us who we are going to get!

If you e-mail Rush, put something catchy in the subject line to get him to read it. He probably gets thousands of e-mails a week.

Also, if you have more time, may I suggest that you write a couple of e-mails to tv shows, and tell them you would like them to interview Duncan Hunter.

I contacted Chris Wallace via a letter, and some others.

Here are the Sunday Morning shows:

FOX NEWS SUNDAY (Fox Network)
MEET THE PRESS (NBC)
FACE THE NATION (CBS)
THIS WEEK (ABC)
LATE EDITION (CNN)

Please read my post #132 for suggestions.

[Shimmer]

I will do so. Only Ron Paul has signs all over town. I think i’ll check and see what Hunter has for a support system around here.

[Velveeta]

I’ll write the emails this evening.

Duncan Hunter.
Say it forward.

[deport]

Among other things, I, frankly, Mark, I have the belief that political candidates have a duty to get noticed themselves.

Damn that Rush nails it again........

And in about 43 days they are going to run out of time to get noticed in Iowa. Then a couple of days later in Wyoming, and then a few more days......... hmmmmmm reckon when the 2x4 will hit them between the eyes.

[upsdriver]

Rush proved the caller right. Rush never once mentioned Duncan Hunter’s name during the conversation. He did manage to get Hillary and Rudy’s names mentioned, though. Just like the MSM and the debate moderators.

To say the least, I was pissed off with Rush. Cutting edge, my @ss.

[Man50D]

Thanks for the info in post #132. I’ll start tomorrow. I might accidentally type in Ron Paul in the email instead of Duncan Hunter at this late hour.

[DakotaRed]

Not only all that, yesterday I attended a PCO meeting to select Richard Curtis’s replacement. Signing in, I noticed candidate stickers on the desk for nearly all candidates, but Duncan Hunter. I asked where was the stickers for him and received a reply of “WHO?”

The young lady who was there knows who he is now. But, the local Republican Party in Southwest Washington didn’t know who he was!

That is being corrected.

[rintense]

Not true. Laura Ingraham is pushing conservative principles over fear of Hillary.
