I like this guy. Heis a breath of fresh air. I hope he runs again for congress. We were sitting around last night, listening/watching utube of Traficant before the corrupt government sent him to the joint.
We all agreed, we'd vote for him too.

The man voted with the Republicans on many important pieces of legislation in the 1980s and 1990sI bet we can find a fiscally conservative pedophile to run for office. Let's elect him, too....

The newspaper reported that Traficant was defiant, telling listeners that he'd "been hounded by some government people for a long time" and that the government "had to cheat to convict me." I always liked him too. I dont know if he was guilty or not. Im inclined to think he was railroaded because he was incredibly outspoken, even against his own party.
The same thing happened to Tom DeLay but on much more vague and obscure charges. He was charged with violating a campaign law that did not even exist at the time.
He was railroaded by a long time Democrat District Attorney who shopped for the proper Grand Jury to whom to present the false evidence.

I would take him for President over Obama, Biden or Hillary in a heartbeat
He'd have my vote
To: freebilly
Traficant was always there for the House Republicans when they needed a vote. He was always bashing members of his own party.
