"Hunter...has two bedrock issues: support for the military (he's an Army veteran of the Vietnam War and has a son serving in Iraq) and opposition to illegal immigration."

The article doesn't mention Hunter's Pro-Fair Trade policy. In a way his stand against illegal immigration can be considered part of his Fair Trade policy. That and his consistent Pro-Family positions are what distinguish him from the rest of the field. Being pro-military and anti-illegal immigration doesn't make one stand-out among Republicans.

Apparently his campaign may not be emphasizing these points in their press releases to the media.

“The article doesn’t mention Hunter’s Pro-Fair Trade policy. In a way his stand against illegal immigration can be considered part of his Fair Trade policy.

Hunter does stand out on illegal immigration, because he has been the most effective politician on borders - even more effective than Tancredo (nothing against Tancredo).

It was Hunter’s bill for a 854 mi. fence that was passed into law, and Hunter had a fence built at the San Diego border.

But yes, Hunter is the only politician who comes out for Fair Trade. Romney actually talks about having a partnership with Red China (yikes).

AND:

“OT-Duncan Hunter On The Importance Of Human Life From Conception
snip
“1. Right to Life Amendment:
I would amend the U.S. Constitution and provide blanket protection to all unborn children from the moment of conception by prohibiting any state or federal law that denies the personhood of the unborn. Likewise, I have also introduced the Right to Life Act, which would legally define “personhood” as the moment of conception and, therefore, guarantee all constitutional rights and protections, including life, to the unborn without utilizing a constitutional amendment.”

AND MUCH, MUCH MORE PRO-FAMILY stuff, but I have to go now. :)
