Tancredo enters 2008



http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070116/pl_nm/usa_politics_tancredo_dc_1

"I am considering this campaign because of my commitment to real immigration reform: reform that first and foremost is dedicated to the security and well-being of the citizens of the United States, and to respect for the rule of law in our beloved nation," Tancredo said.


citizens of the United States or as he refers to them, "The only people that matter!"

3. this might be an ironic note
but I only find two Tancredo families in the 1930 US census. The fathers in those families were both born in Italy. So his own grandparents, perhaps, were not born "citizens of the US".

13. Big diff though.They were LEGAL immigrants.
I am Lou Dobbs Democrat. Sorry. If you live in an area where so many jobs have dissappeared to illegal aliens or have had your own job replaced you will feel differently. Legal aliens are the very best workers and citizens there are.

15. And you assume that everyone of Irish, Italian and other European
descent came in the country in a legal manner?

Not all of mine did. Should I leave the country now? Got the boxcars ready for Ireland? Do we have to give back the money we made from the jobs people like Lou Dobbs say we "stole," because of what we were willing to work for and the work we were willing to do?

The diary of one of my forefathers told of how he broke into a place and stole new pair of pants and shirt for his voyage to America, a voyage he did not have a ticket for, so he could be presentable when he got here. I'm glad you weren't around to meet him when he got here.

6. Lets just hope...
... he puts his FULL effort and resources behind his run for President. He doesn't have a snowball in hells chance of winning but with all his resources there maybe he would step down from congress to make the run.

9. Let me be the first Democrat to support his candidacy for the Republic nomination.
He has some formidible competition. After all, there's Duncan Hunter, Tommy Thompson, and some other whiter guy.
