fringe candidates with microscopic constituencies

Alan Keyes is polling ahead of Duncan Hunter in Iowa, and ahead of Hunter, Tancredo and Ron Paul in Florida.

He's on the ballot in more than ten states now, with more coming in every week.

In the last contested Republican primary, he came in third behind Bush and McCain.

In the last contested Iowa presidential caucus, he came in third as well.

You may not like it, but he deserves to be on the stage.

And, the people of Iowa, and of the country at large, deserve to hear what he has to say.

Every one of them should be deleted from the event.

In the last contested Republican primary, he came in third behind Bush and McCain.

So, how did he do in his last Senate race? Lost by 70% to 27%, with 40% of the Republican vote going to Obama.

And, the people of Iowa, and of the country at large, deserve to hear what he has to say.

Yes, they do. For instance, what he has to say on reparations for slavery.

If you are an ideological conservative, Keyes is the epitomy of the ideological conservative, and he has the oratory and intellectual skills to match.

Unfortunately, he can’t win an election, but he will be the conservative voice on the stage that night.

Agree. Congratulations, EV -- I'm glad Keyes is finally getting a fair chance to participate.
