Tom Tancredo sends this report along:
Dear Conservative, I am sitting here preparing for the first debate of the campaign, but had to take a break and thank you. Bay Buchanan, my campaign manager, just called to tell me we raised over $200,000 in this filing period! That is phenomenal! Thank you so much for all your help! What a great friend you are! To raise this much money in a little more than four weeks sends a powerful message that we will have the money to win this campaign — and that is just what we are going to do! I am so grateful to you for being there at this critical time. All of Colorado was watching to see if we had the ability to put on a winning campaign and now they know we can. I can feel the “Big Mo” at my back and I have you to thank! I will always remember what you have done for me. God Bless You and God Bless America. Tom
Foreign policy does have domestic aspects, as we have seen with the “mosque” manufactured controversy in NY and other states.
Tancredo also supports the Patriot Act and torture. After he was eliminated in the 2008 Presidential primaries he endorsed big government Republican Mitt Romney.
Deran, if he is a strong presidential candidate for 2012 I believe that the Constitution Party should reject him like they did Alan Keyes. Tom Tancredo say that in emergency the U.S. should look into bombing Mecca. If I lived in Colorado I would vote for him as governor because domestically he has the right idea. However he should never be commander-in-chief and have control of the military.
Possible
Tom Tancredo might beat Jim Clymer’s record as most votes of a Constitution Party candidate. He may also be the most successful third party candidate since Daniel Hoffman in New York.
If Mr. Tancredo were to come in second, and continue a sturdy fund raising, he would seem to me a strong presidential candidate for 2012.
I can see him getting second place. At least this gets our name out.
Quite impressive for a third party campaign – even with his name recognition. Unfortunately, Tancredo is a social conservative, but I’ll still be watching to see how his campaign plays out.
