Buchanan wrote a piece about the race but to my knowledge he did not endorse Vernon in this race. Cong. Tancredo did endorse Vernon and I am sorry that you disagree with Mr. Tancredo and Vernon on his immigration position.
Thing is, though, you might disagree with Vernon on this position, or any other, but there was never any ambiguity about that position.
Again, I'm sorry that you disagree with him, but his concern about illegal immigration comes from the national security and economic security concerns that ran rampant in the district and indeed, in the nation. In some areas of the district, 80% of kids registered in some schools were illegal immigrants. Congressman Walter Jones (who also endorsed us) just had an article reported today about the number of illegal immigrants in the North Carolina prison system.
It is just wrong to label Vernon a racist on this issue or any other. Clearly you don't like him and that's fine. But howsabout we put this stuff aside and concentrate on defeating Democrats.
I don't know anything about him except what I read on the Tancredo website which is a front organization for Pat Buchanan (Bay runs it).
It would be comparable to a candidate being endorsed by the KKK. In case you haven't heard, Tancredo has been warned by Tom DeLay and thrown out of the White House by Karl Rove with instructions not to ever come back.
Mr. Robinson may be a very fine man, I don't know, but people are judged by the company they keep, and anyone associated with Buchanan has serious political problems.
