Hmm. Considering Hunter's stance on illegal immigration, his decision to appear at this event strikes me as an interesting.
What's he planning...?

Hunter ping.
Anyone live near Orlando that can check this event out?
Hunter’s presence at a Latino event is interesting, to say the least. Especially considering that none of the other Republicans accepted an invitation, while all of the Dems are coming...
Hmm.

It can't hurt Hunter to show up there, he has nothing to lose.
I would not advise any POTUS candidate to attend this RIGHT NOW. Next year maybe, but not now.

I’m surprised Tancredo and Paul skipped this event. Hunter’s not afraid to tell ANYONE *how it is*. KUDOS!

way to court the Hispanic vote, guys...what? the only way you know to do that is to reward lawbreakers?
To: Kimberly GG
The only information I see is 'later this week'...
If they want to advertise this, they need to be more specific.

Considering Hunter’s long-standing record on cracking down on illegals - plus support for a border fence - I think he has something different in mind.

Thanks!
I have every confidence Duncan Hunter will be there to represent & reflect his values, goals and convictions.
He's not there to pander, but to speak the truth.

I assume Fred Thompson was not invited, since he is not a declared candidate. Anybody know the facts on this?

I live in Texas and know a lot of Hispanics. Maybe Hunter realizes a couple things that some Freepers seem to miss:
- Not all Hispanics are illegal immigrants. Most of them, in fact, are legal.
- People who have gone through the trouble of getting a green card or becoming naturalized citizens often resent those who haven't. Add that to all the all of the other reasons to resent illegal immigrants (e.g. they drive down wages for legal residents), and you have people who hate illegals even more than most Americans.
I realize that #2 doesn't apply to all Hispanics, but it applies to many that I have spoken to.

Boy would I like to be a fly on the wall at this event!!
The transcripts, if one is provided, will be interesting enough, but nothing beats being there!

Lots of Latins and Carribeans are against illegal immigration and amnesty. They have been here for many generations and are Americans. Good for Hunter.

"... when they come to our events, they leave their party registration outside the door," ...Has anyone ever known a Dem to do that?

That is certainly true. Hopefully the crowd at this NALEO debate pertain more to choices 1 and 2, instead of the illegals crowd.

I don’t know the facts on this, but whenever I’ve questioned anyone here about Fred’s lack of participation in the debates, I’m always given the excuse that he doesn’t participate because he isn’t invited since he hasn’t declared. I suppose the same holds true here. I would very much welcome his participation, especially in this ‘event’. I think in this setting it would go a long way in shedding light on Fred’s position.

Seeing as you’re a Florida Freeper, will you be going, perchance? ;)
