To members of Free Republic and friends, I would like to introduce a candidate for President of the United States and the current congressman from the 52nd district of California, Duncan Hunter!! To Americans who value the patriotism and missions of our Armed Forces, to those who want to put fear into the hearts of our adversaries from Beijing to Tehran, to those who value the rule of law when it comes to illegal immigration, to those who realize that the unborn deserve full legal protection beginning at conception, to those who believe Peace through Strength is far more than a motto, to those who do not like giving communist China unfettered access to our markets while they cheat at every turn, to those who want to halt and reverse losses of US sovereignty to global entities, and to those who want the GOP to return to Reaganism, Mr. Hunter is the Best choice.
Congressman Hunter currently is the ranking Republican on the Armed Services Committee, after spending the previous 4 years as its chair. He is an original co-sponsor of the Fair Tax bill and he is the author of the Secure Borders bill, signed by President Bush in 2006, which mandates 800+ miles of double fence across the smuggling corridors of the SW. He also is the man who has led the fight against NAFTA’s Mexican truckers having free reign on our roads, has forced congressional oversight of the executive branch’s ‘Security and Prosperity Partnership’ with Canada and Mexico, and was instrumental in saving our military intelligence officers from having to jump through bureaucratic hoops unrelated to combat.
A Vietnam combat Veteran himself, he currently has a son in the Marine Corps, Capt. Duncan Duane Hunter who is busy hunting jihadis in Afghanistan after two tours in Iraq. Congressman Hunter has been the anti-dote to the liberals in Congress doing their damndest to cut and run from the battlefield. Mr. Hunter knows that this war is our generation’s calling, and “the only way we can leave is to WIN”.
Below are 15 questions we compiled last month on Free Republic, which we sent to Congressman Hunter a few weeks ago. They are followed by his answers. This is the springboard we will use to kick off Mr. Hunter’s live “virtual press conference” on FR today.
Please stop by and say hello and you may post additional questions. HOWEVER, Please realize that time limitations will prevent him from answering all the questions you may have. Though he may get time later to forward answers to many left unaddressed during this session.
Please drop Jim Robinson a note of thanks as well. For not only hosting this event, but for having the best conservative website in the country!
Also, no disruptors allowed. Your posts will be removed.
The following is our Kickoff Q&A session:
Congressman Hunter, you do have a lot of support on this site, and we need you to put forth our conservative positions on the issues.
I am praying that you progress through the primary, and that you ultimately receive the Republican nomination for President. Your positions are exactly what our party and our country need.
Thank you for your service to our country. May God continue to watch over you.
Good Job Duncan Hunter,
We are all so proud of you and your message...
Great job, pissant! Thank you very much for making this happen!!
Great seeing you sir, come back soon!
Thank you all for your time and effort.
Thanks for the ping. I’m sorry I missed it first time around. Great answer.
Thanks for being on FR, which is way more than most candidates have taken the time to do. Hopefully you can find time now and then to get to the remainder of the questions.
How nice of you to take the time and give the people here at Free Republic a chance to speak with you. I have a question about the current mood of the Presidential election, and the way that the MSM is herding the American voters like cattle through the slaughterhouse chute. Why do you think the media effectively closes out all candidates but the ones that fit neatly into their agenda?
It is early days yet, but I am being told every time I view a news source that I have only three options. I don’t think that is the American Way. I don’t want any of the choices that are allowed, and I don’t think it’s fair for those candidates to suck all the oxygen out of the race when it has hardly begun. It is very much the same on the Democrat’s side, and if the MSM could, they would declare HClinton as the next POTUS...today. They pretty much have done that already.
The MSM also tells me that Angelina Jolie is a role model. I don’t buy that either!
Thank you Mr. Hunter and Jim Robinson and Free Republic.
This was a wonderful opportunity that benefitted many of your supporters and future supporters.
Your time here is much appreciated!
Thank you hugely, Pissant! BUMP
Many thanks for stopping by!
God Bless you Duncan Hunter. My family and I are behind you!
And thank you, Jim Robinson, for allowing Mr. Hunter to come on with us! You are AWESOME!!
Jim, God bless you and thank you so much for making this possible on your forum.
“I am doubly glad that we have in you a candidate anthentic in the mold of Ronald Reagan and a veteran of those days.”
Absolutely!
>Coulter likes him, and so does George Will. That just about runs the gamut on the right.<
Not to forget, Michael Reagan, Robert Duvall, Rep. Henry Hyde, Ret., Laura Ingaham, Gen. Chuck Yeager - not all journalists, but some are. :) But you don’t have to win the lottery.
Wouldja please just write a generous check to the Hunter campaign today, in honor of his appearance on FR?
Make it to Hunter for President, and send it to:
9340 Fuerte Drive, Suite 302, La Mesa, CA 91941-4164
Every little bit helps! Thank you, and God bless! :)
whoops my bad
Thanks for the thread.
Thank you for your service and for your son’s service. I am a retired Army Major and have chewed some of the same ground your son has. We met very quickly at the San Diego Freedom concert, but did not get to shake your hand. Your comments on stage were inspiring and your record is impressive. I would kind of like to see a ticket with both you and Fred Thompson, in either order. That would be nearly unbeatable.
I would like to invite you over to MarkLevinFan.com some time. We would love to give some of the Levinite exposure as well.
Thank you again and God Bless to your family, your son, and all of our troops.
