Decision 2008: Can Huckabee win?


One of the quickly moving candidates in polls, Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee has become the most seen likely darkhorse candidate. It is in my opinion Huckabee has a real shot at the Republican Nomination and the White House after Ames. His strength began a month ago when he started leading the other candidates in the 2nd tier in every poll. He started to tie Sen. McCain in polls and we declared him as the leader in deabtes among the 2nd tier. Then he amazed us all at Ames by spending only $90,000 and coming in 2nd. His message got out and he pulled an upset over his main rival Sen. Brownback. Expect polls to start swinging his way with his message you dont need all the money in the world to be president. He seems to be more down to Earth and connects more with voters like when he playe din his band at the straw polls. He connects far more with voters than the top tier. Voters like his appearence and thats what can get him elected. He can get the religous vote which seems not to be supporting the top tier. He is fighting for the social conservative vote and with his win over main rival Sam Brownback he could win theor vote as well. He has said he will surprise many in Iowa and NH. Gingrich says he is an "interesting darkhorse". He is the most likely darkhorse among the GOP. With a 3rd place finish in Iowa he could go far in NH, SC and Super Tuesday. I will conclude with keep your eyes on Huckabee he may surprise you. (Note: This isn't an endorsement)

Cort In Iowa

Republican presidential candidate Hugh Cort has had a good campaign trip to Iowa recently, according the most recent email sent out by his campaign.

"We gave a terrific speech to the Iowa Christian Alliance, praise God! One of the Iowa Christians said, 'Dr. Cort, I never heard anyone explain these issues and their solutions so well!' Our photographer, Allison, told me 'Dr. Cort, you really rocked!' (You know that made my day!)" Cort says in his message.

Cort, along with Dr. Paul Williams, will also be giving a counter-terrorism conference this Friday at the Gateway Hotel and Conference Center in Ames, Iowa.

An e-mail sent out by supporters of Thompson's previous campaign said:

Thompson discussed his potential run today on the Dynamic Duo radio show, http://gcnlive.com/. If neither his brother Tommy Thompson nor fellow truth-seeker Ron Paul get the Republican nomination, Thompson said, "somebody will have to do it."

Gilbert Would Oppose Ron Paul As GOP Candidate

In the Daniel Myers Live Republican debate on Tuesday night the question was asked "Would you support anti-war Ron Paul if he wins your party's nomination?"

The first to answer the question was Daniel Gilbert. Gilbert responded with a simple "no." The other two candidates in the debate, John Cox and Richard Smith, said that they would support him even though they disagree with his foreign policy. Smith went on to say that he "would hope that he [Paul] would wake up to the real dangers in the war."

"No longer will I sit back and not participate, no longer will I let my country be run by those I have no confidence in. America demands and we deserve real candidates, not just candidates presented by the media," McKinney declares on his website.

Decision 2008: Democratic Youtube Presidential Debate


Today the 8 Democratic presidential candidates met to discuss the issues with voters as they asked over youtube video. It was a very interesting night and not as calm as past debates. Early on youtube videos tried to get the candidates fighting when Congressman Kunich attacked Obama and Clinton. Clinton made a point to say she is not liberal that shwe is modern progressive and that the term liberal has been stretched in recent years. The Democrats seemed to love Chuck Hagel and hate Mitt Romney. Biden and Edwards would have picked him as a VP running mate if they could only choose a republican. Mitt Romney's education plan and his money in his pocket was thrasher at the debate. Edwards shined when he said he doesn't want votes who wont vote for Hillary and Obama because of their gender or race. Only Congressman Kunicinch made a point to say right out he was for gay marriage. The others weren't clear on the issue.In Iraq they defended their work in congress as Democrats and blamed Republicans for not joining them in ending the war. Governor Richardson said he is working to have troops out by the end of 2007. Mike Gravel defended his statement that soldiers are dying in vain in Iraq like they died in Vietnam in vain. That got alot of response, but I would like to state to all who view this site that they ask Sen. Gravel to withdraw that statement. that is an uneeded comment for those who are serving today in Itaq and for the families who have lost loved ones. Gravel should ahve watched the tone he said the comment in and he really shouldne't have said that at all. American soldiers die today for America and not in vain. Most the candidates like Richardson and Clinton were for sending UN peacekeepers to Darfur and Richardson hopes China will put pressure on Sudan in the situation. Most were for women in slected service. Clinton and Obama came under attack that they were not doing enough for their race or gender especially Sen. Clinton with being a women's advocate. None of the candidates stood out to us in the debate. Clinton did however seem the most presidential in her answers. Obama seemed unclear and unexperienced in foreign policy topics, but came back with stong stances in domestic policy liek with healthcare. Clinton being th most presidential we have to say won the debate. She proved she can be a great debater tonight. Richardson came back tonight and performed better than past debates. Gravel and Kucinich acted as the attention getters going out of the norm in their answers. Edwards did well in showing his key points in his campaign.

Four Candidates To Face Off Monday

Four 2008 presidential candidates will face off Monday on the Internet radio program This Is Politics. The candidates scheduled to appear are: John Bootie, Willie Carter, Richard Clark and Wayne Allyn Root.

John Bootie, a truck driver, is running as an independent but was a Republican until recently. He is running as a the "next Lincoln-Reagan" and as President he would "give General Petraeus a full and unfettered go ahead to fight terror anyway needed to WIN."

Democrat Willie Carter is making his sixth run for the White House, having run in every election since 1988. If elected he will "take the God fearing approach, addressing the needs of all the people of our nation."

Richard Clark is running as a candidate of the newly formed New American Independent Party. As President, Clark would "prosecute Mr. Bush and his administration for their crimes."

Nevada Millionaire Wayne Allyn Root has left the Republican Party as well and is running for the nomination of the Libertarian Party. He pledges that his first act as President would be to give the power back to the people. "It's your tax money, it's your government. I plan to return it to you," says Root.

The debate will air at 8:00 PM (EST) Monday on www.blogtalkradio.com/tip.

Cox and Gilbert Gaing Ground In Polls

Long-shot Republican presidential candidates John Cox and Daniel Gilbert are gaining ground in polls being held in early primary and caucus states.

In a July 7th poll held at the 9th Annual Coalition of New Hampshire Taxpayers Family Reunion Picnic Gilbert came in third place with 20 of the 294 votes cast. Ron Paul came in first place with 182 votes with front-runner Rudy Giuliani edging Gilbert out for second place with 22 votes. With just four votes Cox tied in this poll with Fred Thompson and beat out John McCain, who received only one single vote, even George Phillies (who is running as a Libertarian) got more votes than McCain.

In a straw poll held in in Linn County, Iowa, in late June, John Cox received 4% of the vote, just behind Mitt Romney who had 5%. Cox topped Ron Paul, who had 3%, and Gilbert tied with Rudy Giuliani, each receiving 2%. John McCain again made a poor showing with 0% of the vote.

Unity'08 can it actually succeed?

Unity'08 is a organization set on holding a online convention in 2008 to nominate a bi-partisan presidential ticket. They are hoping for a GOP and a Dem. to run together on the same ticket or get some independents to run. They also say they can get their candidate on the ballot on all 50 states in 2008. So can they succeed? Well if they get big enough names to run under their banner they just might. A little buzz has come from New York City
Mayor Mike Bloomberg and U.S. Senator Chuck Hagel having dinner together to discuss Unity'08. They could become their ticket since both are interested in running as independents in 2008. Several other possible contenders are Comedian Stephen Colbert, NBC's Tom Brokaw, Unity'08 spokesman and Law and Order's Sam Waterston, Former Minnesota Governor Jesee Ventura, Ralph Nader and many more. Even minor Independent presidential candidate Bob Hargis has set up a draft movement to draft himself to be included in the nominating process. Polls currently show dissatifaction with the 2 major political parties and leaves room for a possibel 3rd party success. Unity'08 has so far had the right success and publicity. They even have the funds. If Bloomberg ran they could surely finance getting on the ballot on all 50 states. Many see this as a tough challenge considering few can get on the ballot on all 50 states. Really only a candidate needs to win is 11 states to win the presidency. So if they can get on the ballot in those states and have a success has Ross Perot did in 1992 they may win a few states. Well as the other candidates search for their partys' nomination, Unity'08 is searching for candidates to take their nomination.

Hargis Keeps Quiet, Adams Getting Messgae Out

It has been a while since there has been any movement in Bob Hargis’ independent presidential campaign, or at least there has not been any significant internet activity.

Hargis’ campaign has apparently come to a stand still while fellow independent presidential candidate Steve Adams is making himself known online.

Adams has taken advantage of the video sharing site YouTube, where he has made over twenty videos and has been featured on two segments on James Kotecki's popular YouTube channel Emergency Cheese. Hargis also has a YouTube page, which has two videos on it with the most recent one being from three months ago.

And when it comes down to which candidates’ website has been visited more, Steve Adams once again is the victor. Adams’ website, www.presidentadams.com, has seen nearly 105,000 visitors but on the other hand Hargis’ site, www.hargis.info, is it at about 36,100 visits.

If Hargis is really serious about becoming the next President, he will have to prove that by reaching out to the voters online.

Constitution Party Front Runner

Now that Jerome Corsi is no longer a possibility for Constitution Party nomination, who is the front runner?

The party does not seem too excited about its current possibilities: Don Grundmann (the only official candidate) and Texas state party chair Bryan Malatesta, who has shown interest in running.

And there is currently no sign that former UN Ambassador and frequent candidate Alan Keyes and former Alabama Supreme Cour Chief Justice Roy Moore have any plans of the Republican Party.

Another name mentioned is the party's 2004 Vice Presidential nominee Chuck Baldwin, but in an interview in October 2006 Baldwin said: "I have learned to never say never, but I have no desire to run."

So who is the front runner for the party's nomination? Answer: Ron Paul (or he is at least the favorite among the party leaders).

Ron Paul, the Republican candidate who has already told the CP that he would not run as their candidate. A recent article on the Constitution Party website says: "...it seems that in the unlikely event that Doctor No is able to capture the Republican nomination, we would stand behind him 100%."

But the statement above may not hold true. If Paul some how does win the Republican nomination (or another party's nomination, ie. the Libertarian Party) it does not mean that all of the members of the Party will want to endorse him. Illinois' state party chairman Randy Stufflebeam does not like the idea of the party reaching out to candidates that are not already in the party and if it looks like leading CP officials are strong supporters for the endorsement of Paul, Bryan Malatesta will almost certainly seek the nomination.

Decision 2008: Stephen Colbert for President?

Is Comedy Central's Colbert Report Host Stephen Colbert really considering a bid for the White House in 2008? Just recently 2 petitions have been formed to get Colbert to run and Unity'o8 seems to be drafting Colbert to run for their nomination for president. They have recently formed a poll asking whether Colbert should run or not. Unity'08's Doug Bailey will be on the show to tell Colbert about the poll and maybe Colbert will give us a little insight on 2008. Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee already asked him to be his running mate, probably asa joke and so did Tom Delay. Now it looks like we may have to look into a possible Colbert run in 2008 to add to the growing number of possible independent runs. Could Colbert sum up to Bloomberg, if Bloomberg makes a run in 2008. Will he just be a spoiler if he runs. Colbert is seen sometimes as conservative and could attract alot of votes if Giuliani, Clinton, and Bloomberg were the candidates he faced off against considering they are all liberal. Colbert has been stated as a crazy journalist and is remembered for his White House Correspondence dinner 2 years ago when he was the comedy act. He put together a video putting forward his name for White House Press Secretary as a joke. His stunt stunned Washington and the President. Colbert could seriously change the status quo is he did run. However one must also consider is this just another political stunt? We will soon find out tonight on Colbert's show.

Candidate Root (L) Goes After Bloomberg

Michael Bloomberg's possible independent candidacy is under attack by author of Republican Millionaire and Libertarian presidential candidate Wayne Allyn Root.

In a blog entry by Root, a former Republican, he says that the media has given so much attention to Bloomberg not because he has big ideas, interesting "out of the box" ideas or that he could be a leader of political revolution but for this reason: "The answer is simple: because he's a Billionaire (that's with a capital 'B')."

Root goes onto to say it takes more than money to become President and says that "If Americans agree we need bold change to turn this great nation around, then I don't believe Michael Bloomberg is the answer."

You can read Root's full blog entry by going to: http://www.rootforamerica.com/blog/.

Nader's possible run and can Bloomberg win?

I think Nader will run. He is taking the neccessary steps to make a run. Hes name is appearing more and more on the news and he supports the minor candidates because they will lose and he can put himself forward as a canddiate. Now whether he wants to go through the hassle of gathering sigantures and raising money. Also is Bloomberg jumps in wont he be a minor speed bump on the 2008 presidential race? I see Nader running but not even getting half of the votes he got in 2004 and that amount wasn't that much. Now with Bloomberg in will he be a spoiler a long shot or a serious contender. Could he actually become our first independent president? I seriously doubt that. However he has the money and the name recognition. He could actually swing some electoral votes to throw the election to the house. That has happened for hundreds of years. If Giuliani and Hillary are the 2 candidates facing off against Bloomberg I dont see him coming close. Too many NY liberals in the race. If you look at the 3 they are very similar. All 3 are pro-choice and are from NY. They all support gun control. Do you think Bloomberg if he does run can get enough support to get into the presidential debates? Ross Perot did.

Nader Considering Fourth Run

Ralph Nader, who received enough votes in 2000 to be accused of being a "spoiler," is considering making yet another run for the White House in 2008.

"You know the two parties are still converging -- they don't even debate the military budget any more," Nader said last night on Hardball. Nader went onto say: "I really think there needs to be more competition from outside the two parties."

Nader does however have favorites in each of the major parties. On the Republican side he likes Ron Paul, for the Democrats Mike Gravel is his choice.


When it comes to the possibel independent candidacy of Michael Bloomberg Nader said "He's running" and that "he'll turn it into a three-way race." But this doesn't mean Nader won't try and make it a four way race, "I really like the stand he [Bloomberg] took against smoking, but he goes along with corporate welfare in New York and tax-funded stadiums. So he is unfinished in that way."

Will Mike Bloomberg run for president in 2008?

New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg has officially left the Republican party pretty much ending any speculation that he would run in 2010 to oust Newly elected Democratic Governor Elliot Spitzer. Now most our looking at whether he will run as an independent for president in 2008? With his new Independent affliation it make look like he is going to run. Bloomberg has yet to state he will or will not run as an independent, but he will not run as a Republican. Bloomberg stands well as a 3rd party or independent candidiate in polls coming close to winning several states and nationally he is nearing double digits. Could he be the Ross Perot of 2008? He is a billionaire and could finance a presidential run. He said he is ready to spend $50 million of his own money to get enough signatures to get on the ballot in all 50 states and run TV ads in those states. With that much money Bloomberg could put up a good fight against whoever the Democratic or Republican nominees will be. Bloomberg also met with US Senator Chuck Hagel at a Unity'08 event sparking interest that the 2 will run on the same ticket under the Unity'08 banner. We will just have to wait and see what happens in 2008.

Is the McCain Campaign in trouble?

Many are questioning whether Arizona U.S. Senator John McCain is already out of the race for president. He had poor fundraising totals in the 1st quarter and is expected to have about the same. His polls in Key state of Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina have dropped to almost single digits. Nationally McCain has slipped to 3rd. What has happened to this once presumed nominee? Well McCain supports unpopular legislation like the current immigration bill, and the troop build up resolution. Also Fred Thompson's entrance has moved him to 3rd. Mitt Romney's surge in Iowa and NH have taken his lead away. Giuliani remains in control nationally. The only area McCain is performing decently is in Democratic match-ups. There he is usually tied with Giuliani and leading Thompson and Romney. I dont feel that McCain if out yet. He still has the polls to remain in the top tier, and if we remember back to 2004 John Kerry was in this kind of trouble numerous times. Kerry was the early frontrunner slipped in fundraising and key states regained his lead but lost it again and fell to all time lows. It wasn't until the week before Iowa that he came back and won the nomination. It is too early to declare a campaign dead and I feel this si just another bumpy stage for McCain. Now if he recieves poor fundrasing totals again and his momentum completely deteriates. Then the McCain camp will be in trouble.

Immigration (Pt.3)

FINAL PART REGARDING IMMIGRATION!!!

Ok so we've seen how Illegal Immigrants dont pay for the things we have to, they get extended benefits on many issues, they can trash our flag, language and culture and its called Free Speach or Affirmative Action. Yet when we do so its called Un-Patriotic and Stepping Over the Bounds.

So, Part 3 won't be long in fact there is no Fact Sheet on this one. Just my Thoughts. So take the time to look over Parts 1 & 2 and then comment about it and let me know what you think. Agree with me or not. I want everyone's oppinion.

Illegal Immigration would be less of a problem if the Government would build the fence like they said they would. Unfortunantly they have chosen to sit on their butts and not do a thing about it. Illegal Immigration in Mexico would result in imprisonment or death. Here you get anything and everything you want. Fair and Balanced? You decide.

Final Note:

It's up to us to do something about it. Half the Senate voted against making English the Official Language of the United States. Half the Senate voted for making Illegal Immigrants LEGAL. Half the Senate voted to allow them to participate in Social Security, Welfare, Medicare and all the other benefits hard working Americans cannot. And Half the Senate will be re-elected because voters will choose not to vote them out. Lets do something about it. Let's fix our Border Problem. Protect our Border Officers. And begin using Basic Common Sense to protect our Conuntry!

Friday, June 15, 2007

Immigration (Pt.2)

Ok, so you've seen how Immigrants just love our country in Part 1. Now check this out. To those who think Illegal Immigrants want to learn our language. To those who think it will cost more to deport them then it will to make them Legal. GET THIS!!!

As you read this, bear in mind that 84 hospitals have closed in
California due to bankruptcy from serving the needs of illegal aliens.
This problem is Huge. Secure the border first with a fence and then we can discuss the immigration situation.

Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas, Texas is a fairly famous
Institution and for a variety of reasons:

1. John F. Kennedy died there in 1963
2. Lee Harvey Oswald died there shortly after
3. Jack Ruby-who killed Lee Harvey Oswald, died there a few years
later..by coincidence

"On the flip side, Parkland is also home to the second busiest
maternity ward in the country with almost 16,000 new babies arriving each year. (That's almost 44 per day---every day)

THE FOLLOWING STATISTICS ARE OUTRAGEOUS.

A recent patient survey indicated that 70 percent of the women who gave birth at Parkland in the first three months of 2006 were illegal
Immigrants. That's 11,200 anchor babies born every year just in Dallas .

According to the article, the hospital spent $70.7 million delivering
15,938 babies in 2004 but managed to end up with almost $8 million
dollars in surplus fun ding. Medicaid kicked in $34.5 million, Dallas
County taxpayers kicked in $31.3 million and the feds tossed in another $9.5 million.

The average patient in Parkland 's maternity wards is 25 years old,
married and giving birth to her second child She is also an illegal
Immigrant. By law, pregnant women cannot be denied medical care based on their immigration status or ability to pay.

OK, fine. That doesn't mean they should receive better care than
everyday , middle-class American citizens. But at Parkland Hospital,
they do.

" Parkland Memorial Hospital has nine prenatal clinics. NINE.

The Dallas Morning News article followed a Hispanic woman who was a patient at one of the clinics and pregnant with her third child---her previous two were also born at Parkland . Her first two deliveries
were free and the Mexican native was grateful because it would have
cost $200 to have them in Mexico . This time, the hospital wants her to pay $10 per visit and $100 f or the delivery but she was unsure if she could come up with the money. Not that it matters, the hospital won't turn her away. (I wonder why they even bother asking at this point.)

"How long has this been going on? What are the long-term affects?

Well, another subject of the article was born at Parkland in 1986
shortly after her mother entered the U.S. illegally---now she is having
her own child there as well. (That's right, she's technically a U.S.
citizen.) These women receive free prenatal care including medication, nutrition, birthing classes and child care classes. They also get freebies such as car seats, bottles, diapers and formula.

Most of these things are available to American citizens as well but
only for low-income applicants and even then, the red tape involved is almost insurmountable.

Because these women are illegal immigrants, they do not have to provide any sort of legitimate identification---no proof of income. An American citizen would have to provide a social security number which would reveal their annual income---an illegal immigrant need only claim to be poor and the hospital must take them at their word.

"My husband is a pilot for the United States Navy (yes, he fought in
Iraq ) and while the health care is good, we Navy wives don't get
any of these perks! Car seats? Diapers? Not so much. So my question is this:
Does our public medical care system treat illegal immigrants
better than American citizens? Yes it does!

As I mentioned, the care I have received is perfectly adequate but it's bare bones, meat and potato medical care---not top of line.

Their (the illegals) medical care is free---simply because they are
illegal immigrants? Once again, there is no way to verify their income.

Parkland Hospital offers indigent care to Dallas County residents who
earn less than $40,000 per year. (They also have to prove that they did not refuse health coverage at their current job. Yeah, the 'free' care is not so easy for Americans.)

There are about 140 patients who received roughly $4 million dollars
for non reimbursed medical care. As it turns out, they did not qualify
for free treatment because they resided outside of Dallas County So the hospital is going to sue them! Illegals get it all free! But U.S
citizens who live outside of Dallas County get sued! How stupid is
this?

As if that isn't annoying enough, the illegal immigrant patients are
actually complaining about hospital staff not speaking Spanish. In this AP story, the author speaks with a woman who is upset that she had to translate comments from the hospital staff into Spanish for her husband. The doctor was trying to explain the situation to the family and the mother was forced to translate for her husband who only spoke Spanish. This was apparently a great injustice to her.

In an attempt to create a Spanish-speaking staff, Parkland Hospital is
now providing incentives in the form of extra pay for applicants who
; speak Spanish. Additionally, medical students at the University of
Texas Southwestern for which Parkland Hospital is the training facility will now have a Spanish language requirement added to their already jammed-packed curriculum. No other school in the country boasts such a ridiculous multi-semester (multicultural) requirement.

In the meantime, I have to end my column here. I have to go buy a car
seat."

Immigration (Pt. 1)

We've heard time and time again about this Immigration Bill. We've heard time and time again about how its not amnesty. And we've heard time and time again about how it will cost billions of dollars to deport them. Well here's some stuff to make you think. To those who think they dont want to change our way of government, language and lifestyle. And to those who think these Illegal Immigrants are peaceful people wanting to make a living. Read This.

THIS IS NOT A FORECAST OR A PROJECTION. THIS IS WHAT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED IN CALIFORNIA.

DO YOU WANT THE REMAINING PARTS OF THE UNITED STATES TO BE LIKE CALIFORNIA ???



1. 40% of all workers in L.A. County ( L.A. County has 10.2 million people) are working for cash not paying taxes. This was because they are predominantly illegal immigrants, working without a green card.

2. 95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens.

3. 75% of people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles are illegal aliens.

4. Over 2/3 of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien Mexicans on Medi-Cal, whose births were paid for by taxpayers.

5. Nearly 25% of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals here illegally.

6. Over 300,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles County are living in garages.

7. The FBI reports half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most likely illegal aliens from south of the border.

8. Nearly 60% of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal.

9. 21 radio stations in L.A. are Spanish speaking.

10. In L.A. County 5.1 million people speak English. 3.9 million speak Spanish.(There are 10.2 million people in L.A. County ).

Less than 2% of illegal aliens are picking our crops, but 29% are on welfare.

Over 70% of the United States ' annual population growth (and over 90% of California , Florida , and New York )results from immigration.

The cost of immigration to the American taxpayer in 1997 was, (after subtracting taxes immigrants pay), a NET $70 BILLION/year, [Professor Donald Huddle, Rice University ]. The lifetime fiscal impact (taxes paid minus services used) for the average adult Mexican immigrant is a NEGATIVE number.

29% of inmates in federal prisons are illegal aliens.

If they can come to this country to raise Hell and demonstrate by the thousands, WHY can't they take charge over the corruption in their own country?

We are a bunch of fools for letting this continue.


THE U.S. VS MEXICO



On February 15, 1998, the U.S and Mexican soccer teams met at the Los Angeles Coliseum. The crowd was overwhelmingly pro-Mexican even though most lived in this country. They booed during the National Anthem and U.S. flags were held upside down. As the match progressed, supporters of the U.S. team were insulted, pelted with projectiles, punched and spat upon. Beer and trash were thrown at the U.S players before and after the match. The coach of the U.S. team, Steve Sampson said, "This was the most painful experience I have ever had in this profession."

Did you know that immigrants from Mexico and other non-European countries can come to this country and get preferences in jobs, education, and government contracts. It's called affirmative action or racial privilege.

The Emperor of Japan or the President of Mexico could migrate here and immediately be eligible for special rights unavailable for Americans of European descent.

Corporate America has signed on to the idea that minorities and third world immigrants should get special, privileged status. Some examples are Exxon, Texaco, Merrill Lynch, Boeing, Paine Weber, Starbucks and many more.


DID YOU KNOW?

Did you know .. that Mexico regularly intercedes on the side of the defense in criminal cases involving Mexican nationals?

Did you know .. that Mexico has NEVER extradited a Mexican national accused of murder in the U.S. in spite of agreements to do so? According to the L.A. Times, Orange County , California is home to 275 gangs with 17,000 members, 98% of which are Mexican and Asian. How's your county doing?


According to a New York Times article dated May 19, 1994, 20 years after the great influx of legal immigrants from Southeast Asia , 30% are still on welfare compared to 8% of households nationwide. A Wall Street Journal editorial dated December 5, 1994 quotes law enforcement officials as stating that Asian mobsters are the "greatest criminal challenge the country faces." Not bad for a group that is still under 5% of the population.

Is education important to you? Here are the words of a teacher who spent over 20 years in the Los Angeles School system.

"Imagine teachers in classes containing 30-40 students of widely varying attention spans and motivation, many of whom aren't fluent in English. Educators seek learning materials likely to reach the majority of students and that means fewer words and math problems and more pictures and multicultural references."

I remember hearing about the immigrants that came through Ellis Island.

They wanted to learn English.
They wanted to breathe free.
They wanted to become Americans.

Now, far too many immigrants come here with demands. They demand to be taught in their own language. They demand special privileges... affirmative action. They demand ethnic studies that glorify their culture.


WE CAN END THIS UNACCEPTABLE SITUATION BY DOING THE FOLLOWING:

1. BUILD A WALL/FENCE ALONG THE ENTIRE BORDER.
2. SERIOUSLY PATROL THE BORDER.
3. PENALIZE EMPLOYERS WHO HIRE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
4. NO MORE FREE MEDICAL CARE, WELFARE, & SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
5. CHILDREN BORN IN THE U.S. FROM ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY BECOME U.S. CITIZENS.

IF WE DO THE ABOVE, MOST OF THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WILL RETURN TO MEXICO ON THEIR OWN. THE OTHERS SHOULD BE DEPORTED OR JAILED.

IF WE DON'T DO THE ABOVE, IT IS PROJECTED THAT 20 TO 30 MILLION ADDITIONAL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS WILL ENTER THE U.S. IN THE NOT TOO DISTANT FUTURE ..... AND THE AMERICAN POPULATION AND ITS VALUES WILL CHANGE FOREVER.

ITS VERY SIMPLE:
"LEGAL" IMMIGRATION IS GOOD
"ILLEGAL" IMMIGRATION IS BAD

How much does it cost to run for President?

Before I get ready for work I flip through the morning news "snews"> While I have no crystal ball it didn't take me long to figure out what the stories are going to be about. You can count on the first story being something negitive about the President, The GOP or the war in Iraq. Then they will have some amazing story of survival, next look for a story regarding some Hollywood screen star. The weather is spotted between the segments and a bid of local fluff such as the local government spending a buch of money for some study to see if we need a color inhanced veebel glocker or a new depth gage for the city swiming pool. The order may be different but no matter if it's ABC, CBS, or NBC the content is the same. Fox has some different things but pretty much the same stuff .
Every day we see Rudy G as the GOP leader and Mitt Romney has raised $X million. and the other side , the so called Democrats have Miss Hillery leading the pack followed by Borcc the Magic Politico that lives in DC and can do no wrong, follows closely.
Just in the past few days have we seen and heard about Fred Dalton Thompson. I seem the news folks have just found out that he may be running. And running he will. He has been in no debates to date, has not raised millions, has not announced that he is a candidate. But polls show he is in the number 2 spot!
How did he do it? Fred hasn't been sitting around twittleing his thumbs. It's called grass roots. He has been quietly meeting the folks out on Main Street USA via the internet and speaking at events.
One word of warning Mr. Thompson himself has said it is way too early to make any thing out of the current polls. The real race won't start until Sept or Oct of this year.
It is very possible for a third party candidate to make some headway this time. Both party bases are not over joyed with the present leaders.

Powell Leaning Democrat?

Is former Sec. of State going to support a Democrat for President 2008? Powell, who in 1996 was encouraged to run as a Republican for President, appeared on Meet the Press this past Sunday.

"I'm going to support the best person that I can find who will lead this country for the eight years beginning in January of 2009," said Powell. He went onto say that he has advised Democrat Barak Obama on foreign policy but would give advice to anyone that asks him.
