Opening up to the possibility of a flame war here, of course, but even though he has thrown in the towel on Presidential politics and running for office for good, I still wonder if in fact BUCHANAN could be coaxed out of that position, considering he is very well known, and his book will (by 2004) assuredly have been borne out or at least a perceived as a clarion call by many. And sad and horrific as it would be, still the prospect of another major Islamic fundamentalist terrorist attack attributable to the pathetic CLINTON-BUSH I.N.S. and federal enforcement policy cannot be ruled out between now and 2004 which could fuel this bid. BUCHANAN-TANCREDO would be assailed far and wide by the Democrats and Republicans and nearly all in the national media; but it undoubtedly would have strong potential at the grassroots in terms of classic political rebellion we are seeing in Europe. You know, the 'EE FACTOR'. "Enough is Enough"

Interesting you bring up Buchanan since he has been my ideal presidential candidate ever since he ran in 1992. I was very dissapointed with his electoral showing in 2000 coming as it did after his two near victories in the GOP presidential primaries in 1992 and 1996. I called for his return to the GOP and though he basically did, he also renounced future runs for public office--another big dissapointment. No one as yet has proven capable of filling his shoes, but I am hoping someone will rise to the occasion to champion the America First Conservative cause. No other presidential candidate has proved nearly as inspiring and well-qualified for the Presidency, not even Alan Keyes. Accordingly, I throw out names and possibilities, but my heart is not set on anyone in particular because no one seems nearly as compelling a candidate. Keyes comes close though so I will support him for President for now and possibly in the 2004 GOP presidential primary. Bush needs a strong conservative challenger like his father had to give him a wake-up call and let him know that conservatives aren't happy with his recent betrayals of the conservative cause and the Republican Party.
