Thanks for ignoring the one candidate that would have answered all of your questions. Of course, that would have defeated the purpose of your article.

Why have the campaigns of Hunter and Tancredo faltered? Certainly its not lack of support.

Well, if they had enough support, their campaigns wouldn't be faltering.

Sadly, we are losing. The globalists controlling our party seem to be gaining the upper hand. Both Hunter and Tancredo are nearly out of cash ( link ). The other candidates , good men all, will simply not remain on our side in the long term, in my view.

Whew this guy could be hillary, with his us against them attitude.

We don’t really have “advisers” and “strategists” telling us what our next move should be.

That's a bit disingenuous. The globalists are just as dedicated to their side as we are to ours. We can beat them on the facts and simple reality; I don't see the need to disparage them just because they're stupid--uh, I mean just because we disagree.

The one candidate that allows and, therefore tacitly approves of, White Supremacists working on his campaign phone banks, raising money for his campaign (see Stormfront & the KKK) and who’s supporters choose to turn a blind eye to his nod and wink to these very same Supremacist organizations..

“J.D. Hayworth lost his congressional seat in Arizona after taking a tough stance on the border.”

The GOP and White House did not back him at all! Rove treated him like dirt.

I did. You ignored it. Answer the questions I posed to you earlier.

I've given you the evidence. you choose to ignore it. That says as much about you as it does about Paul.

Answer the questions, little man.

He has never seeked their endorsement, actively solicited money from them, and his campaign manager Jesse Benton already said white supremacists were wasting their time and money on Dr. Paul.

White supremacists working on his phone banks?
Dr. Paul doesn't have a campaign phone bank, you idiot!
The money he raises come either online or through the mail. He never calls people for donations!

So your "evidence" is more of the same innuendo, smear tactics, and guilt-by-association garbage that's been rejected more times than you at last call at the bar.

don black.

There's no law prohibiting him from donating to the candidate of his choice, despite his repugnant views. Paul's campaign has said they'll use the money to promote his agenda, not theirs. If Paul didn't seek the donation, then it's much ado about nothing.

This typifies one of the biggest problems facing conservative Republicans, or what is left of us. The globalist, utopian socialists within. Washington quit serving America a long time ago. Between them and the “America for sale for votes” socialists, they don’t leave us much to work with. Hayworth was a good example of what loyalty to America in the Republican party gets for you.

From what I've read, Don Black endorsed and voted for Bush in 2004. Does that make Bush a horrible person? Maybe I'll start taking you obsessed haters seriously when you call for Bush to renounce Don Black, as well.

I won't hold my breath though.

Perhaps the money trouble that Trancredo and Hunter are having suggests that maybe, just maybe, they don’t enjoy as much support as you think they do? I’ve always found that a war chest is the real gauge by which you can measure a candidates support. I’ve yet to see anyone fail to raise any significant amount of money and yet do well in politics.

I’m beginning to believe they were taken down by “their own” (i.e. GOP) just so Rove et al could say “told you so.”

It will take every ounce of fight we have left to bring Pro America positions back to the GOP.

I thought of that too.
