e-mail from Fred: "Where we are, and where we're going"
email ^ | July 26, 2007 | Fred Thompson

Posted on 07/26/2007 1:03:09 PM PDT by RobFromGa

In the past few months, I've traveled the country talking and listening to folks. I've been discussing where I see America going, about what we need to do to keep our nation secure, what we must do to keep this remarkable economy growing, and the challenges we must address together for the next generation of Americans.

I believe the United States is at a crossroads, and what I'm hearing on the road is that a lot of people agree with me. They're ready to move forward together to meet our challenges here at home and abroad. They aren't buying into the defeatist talk about our security, our economy, and our future.

During this "testing the waters" effort we've undertaken, I've been saying the political waters feel pretty warm. It's allowed us to start laying the foundation of a good team across the country and to keep up this national conversation we've been having. Now we're going to take that conversation to a different level.

On Tuesday, August 7th, we're inaugurating a new weekly "I'm With Fred" email, complete with news, updates, and photos from the road. We're also working on the ImWithFred website 2.0, in order to keep in touch on a daily basis and to give you more opportunities to join us at events, help us organize, and spread the word about our efforts.

I'm excited about what I'm seeing out on the road. I appreciate everything you're doing for our effort.

Sincerely,

Fred Thompson

“”Also, the last time the United States elected a current or former House member to the presidency was Abraham Lincoln in 1860 (on a fragmented four-way ticket)”””

Wrong. George H.W. Bush was elected President in 1988. He was a House member for Texas in 1964. Served one term, as I recall.

Is he waiting a long time or did the others jump in way too early?

Thanks you for clearing that up. I’m a fan of legal immigration too. If then Senator Abraham was seeking to improve the arcane, ill-enforced, and tedious immigration laws in this country, then I’m in agreement with him.
