From your issues page:

"Overseas, I will rebuild the alliances that made America strong. I will renew our friendship with "old Europe," whose proud history we share.I will strengthen our friendship with our neighbors in North and South America, whose glorious hemisphere we share. And I will create a new friendship with the Muslim world, whose perilous future we share."

Do you really believe that President Bush is the problem and that France, Germany and Saudi Arabia are the answer?

Thank you for standing up for freedom of expression

Shout yourself horse for all I care.

and fundamental democracy

I hate democracy. I support the republic not some stupid mob rule.

One of the primary reasons I accepted the rather implausible request that I run -- on a powerful and singular platform -- is that I want to encourage more participation by "common citizens" in the electoral process.

Did you just call me common buddy?

As a journalist, I feel that every point I make, or will be, can be or is fully documented with unimpeachable information -- as were my Bush-Nazi stories in The New Hampshire Gazette (www.nhgazette.com).

That you are a journalist is suppose to impress me? Frankly I rate them just above politicians and right below lawyers and used car salesmen. Your stuff has been debunked.

Please visit my web site at www.johnbuchanan.org and learn more about my ideas, which are fresh and in the interests of all Americans, not just the special interests -- of both parties.

Yawn. Same old same old. I get sick of this. How many times must we suffer thought the same old "fresh" ideas? You sound exactly like a Democrat and not a Zell Miller type Democrat either.

Thanks again for your voice of support for my voice. It is much appreciated.

Like I said say what you want. No skin off my nose. I however would like to point out that this is not a public but a private web site and your rights are diddly-squat here. Which is the same as your chances of getting my vote. Diddly-squat.

money from the heir to the Miller Beer fortune

That does it for this cat, pal! I was seriously considering a vote for ya during the general election - see the bumpersticker above I designed exclusively for your campaign - but now, forget it! I promised my late grandfather, and old world brewer, that I'll never vote for anyone associated with that pissywater poison! Sorry. No, really!

From your issues page:

He did not trust the people of Florida enough to count every vote; he claimed the White House by persuading the Supreme Court to stop the count of 175,000 uncounted ballots, thus defying the principle of Federalism as well as Democracy.

Are you on furlough from a lunatic asylum?

Maybe you should ask him if he voted for Gore.

Perhaps never before has a U.S. President so divided the country, according to a recent Time cover story.

Oh yeah - TIME is like the Bible around here.

Snicker.

As for abortion, as the grandson of a Methodist minister, I am personally opposed to abortion. But as a public matter, I support only first trimester and at-risk abortions. As for illegal immigration, I would enforce our borders as energetically as I would homeland security. Gaining control of the flood of illegal immigrants into this country will be one of the seminal issues for the next four years. It must be stopped. So far, the Bush administration has clearly failed to stop it. Finally, as for visas, I would re-vamp and better enforce the entire visa process as a critical matter of national security.
Thank you. Please let me know your reaction to my thoughts, or let me know if you'd like more detail.

He refuses to attend funerals for soldiers killed in Iraq, and prohibits their coffins from being shown on TV.

This is no joking matter, you are treading on dangerous ground. Presidents do not and can not attend the funerals of our dead warriors for reasons apparent even to the brain dead.

The second part is even more serious. The fact that you would like to make political hay out of the caskets of dead warriors returning to America makes is disgusting.

I also think my fellow senior citizens should forego their 400 billion dollar drug boondoggle and that money be spent on national defense. The Patriot Act is indefensible. The Dept of Edu. is still a big waste and border security in the south is a joke. No matter what you may think of corp.America, capitalism and Adam Smith still guide traditional conservatism. I'm sensitive to Marxist overtones in a persons view...Are you sure you harbor none?

Would you ABOLISH THE IRS?...Say yes and I may consider you.

Oh it gets better trust me.

I will create hope for the future by aggressively funding and improving education, protecting the environment, and making high-quality health care available to all.

Now there is a fresh new idea! He is going to throw more money at the problem.

Sheesh! As if these things weren't pricy enough all ready.

hahahahahahahahahahahaha... yea, you are going to shape or move debate in NH.... and Saddam won the War.... You are definately on drugs if you think you are going to shape or mold anything.

A popular sitting president, at a time of war, and a syndicated columnist is going to get the time of day because he's on the ballot opposing him in the primaries.... Its a nice daydream... but wake up.

From your issues page:

As President, I will trust the people to govern themselves as free people in a healthy, open Democracy.

We live in a Constitutional Republic, or at least we are supposed to be. It would be nice if a candidate for the POTUS was cognizant of that factoid.

Pardon me for asking, but how did this website come about?

He has failed in his promise to keep America strong. Under Bush, U.S. foreign policy and international esteem have reached historic lows.

Sorry, I never made it past this stupid statement. Since when does what others think of you determine how strong you are?

"But mom, all the other kids are doing it. What will they think?"
"Your so right Johnny, my gosh, you would not want to be a leader and do the right thing. Much better that all your friends like you. Here is your pot back."

If this person is serious about running, he better come up with a better script than this.

Contrast this with your post #209 that "homeland security is a sham to help big corporations" and you are either a liar or a hypocrite. Why would you blast homeland security and then say "As for illegal immigration, I would enforce our borders as energetically as I would homeland security."

Bring on the Viking Kitties...
