Well yeah! It's the candidate's job to make himself known. I don't know who he is, and I hang out on a political forum all day. If I don't know... the folk that just work all day and have other hobbies don't know him either. If they don't know him, they ain't gonna vote for him. I'm not opposed, but HE's got to get himself known by getting that face time and showing himself to be a 'national' caliber candidate. I shouldn't have to go and look him up to find out about him. It's called a campaign, not a treasure hunt.

No, it's called giving enough of a damn to do a little investigation so that you don't let yourself be led around by the nose when deciding who's worthy of your support.

I continue to find posts like your's in saying you haven't seen Hunter anywhere. I am from NY and just came across Hunter when he was speaking about the Abu Ghraib scandal on the news networks. He was Chairman of the Armed Services Committee and I was able to watch him on C-SPAN, he's been on different networks discussing the war. He has had face time on tv, interviews, in stories. Just not as much obviously to pass some of you by. The man is impressive and I think the GOP nominee would be enough to officially have his name out there and Hunter impresses and will run a strong campaign. What a time it would be to watch his destroy Hillary in the debates and during the campaign. Just make sure you check out the debate coming up in April to see Hunter in action because people need to keep an open mind and realize he would make the best candidate and will make up for not being as familiar with the public.
