I am publicly stating who I support for the 2008 Republican nominee for President, California Representative, Duncan Hunter. Why? The reasons are many but the primary underlying reason is, he better than any other candidate, be they Republican or Democrat, at understand the world landscape both economically and politically. His over all goal is a stronger more protected America.
Hunter, more than any other name on the ballot, is a student of history, not just recent history, he, as they say, sees the big picture. Unlike politicians of the past who have given away the American Dream as a good faith gesture to the world, Hunter wants to protect what is ours. On a regular basis, we always seems to be the ones extending the olive branch to the world only to have it stepped on.
In recent weeks he has spoken out harshly about the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST) as it gives US sovereignty of the sea to (gulp) the UN. Hunter stated that:
“It is imperative that our nation does not surrender decision making power for military navigation or resource extraction, especially in this age of terrorism with technology and weapons proliferation. And adding a new set of UN bureaucrats with license to tax and adjudicate disputes is the last thing this country needs.” … ”Rest assured no treaty that infringes on the sovereignty of the United States, or further empowers the United Nations, will get anything but a trip to the waste basket in a Hunter Administration.”
See what I mean? This guy “gets it”!
He is the only candidate who consistently sees China as someone we should be cautious of, while everyone else sees China as a former Communist nation on the brink of democracy. Other see their exploding market as a potential for American big business to blossom, while Hunter sees the same thing, he is thinking of America first, the business executives second.
Just today he released a press release in which he publicly calls on Mitt Romney, founder of Bain Capital and Republican presidential candidate, to put an end to a business deal with a Chinese company who is negociating for the acquisition of US defense conractor 3COM. The kicker here is that the founder of this company is an officer of the Peoples Liberation Army of Communist China and is being accused of providing Saddam Hussein with the technology to target US aircraft and helping the Taliban develop surveillance equipment.
Hunter said to Romney in writing;
“I am extremely concerned that Governor Romney’s company would tout a highly suspect Chinese corporation as a strategic partner,” stated Hunter. “Forming a business partnership with a corporation known to have direct ties with terrorists and dictators while, at the same time, openly seeking to acquire a major U.S. corporation that performs vital cyber security work for the Department of Defense, can only be characterized as irresponsible.”
What other candidate would step out and do the right thing like this? Duncan Hunter does his homework, that is what will make him a very effective POTUS. This wasn’t a political ploy, this was Hunter looking out for America, for you and me.

The more you read about him, the more, I am sure, you will realize that he sees things the way most Amiercans do.
Agreed! Hunter is the best.

I concur...by a mile
As do I.
Hunter is a second tier candidate. He has no chance of winning. Ditto Huckabee, Tancredo, and Paul.

The title is garbage. I think the author means something else:
Why We Need Hunter to Be Our Next President
Not many people would (or should) care why “Hunter needs to be our next president.”
BTT!

HUNTER CALLS ON ROMNEY TO OPPOSE BAIN PARTNERSHIP WITH CHINESE COMPANY
You and the media would just love it to stay that way too, so you can get your favorite RINO elected. It ain't over yet....
Duncan Hunter is the man!
For me it’s between Fred or Mike.
Hunter and the others are not a consideration.
I’ve already ruled them out after considering them.
“Hunter is a second tier candidate. He has no chance of winning. Ditto Huckabee, Tancredo, and Paul.”
So says the MSM and a dutifully compliant wing of the Republican party.
B4DH!!
Get him to rev up his campaign.
Screw the media. They're for the Democrats. I just want someone who can keep the Ass Party out of the White House.
“I wish he got more attention.”
Please write a letter to the editor to get his name out.
I don’t care what the media says. They don’t pick my candidate. I’ll vote for whoever I wish.
Well, well! Look who’s here!
