Duncan Hunter on Free Republic
So, did you see the live thread of Duncan Hunter on Free Republic? You should go read it if you want to know more about this candidate for president. A few quotes from the thread for those who don't want to read it all, but want to know what sort of positions Mr. Hunter has:
I reject Al Gore’s and others’ doomsday alarmism on the subject. [man-made global warming] As, President I will build the border fence, all 854 miles, in six months. During this time I gained the insight that the Hispanic community in the U.S. is not aided by open borders, but rather their wages are the first to be lowered when cheap illegal labor flows across the border. I like homeschooling because it offers a clear choice for parents who want to impart values and knowledge to their children. I would substantially cut the bureaucracy in the Department of Education, top to bottom. I would eliminate such programs as National Endowment for the Arts and dozens of programs identified in the Bush Administration’s “cut list.” (These include programs from HUD, the Departments of Justice, Labor, Energy, Agriculture, Commerce, Transportation, Interior, HHS, DHS, and the EPA). [I]n the past I have opposed the Law of the Sea Treaty. I expect that to continue. Any group that acts as an apologist for terrorism and attempts to undermine legitimate US law enforcement activities, will not get an ear in a Hunter Whitehouse.
Go read more if you like. Not bad, huh?

Oh yes, oh gawd yes, yes, yes. But can he win, Ogre? Does he stand a chance to be the party nominee and ultimately can he win the White House?

He can win if he can get through the primary. I think a real conservative, like Hunter, can indeed beat any national Democrat. I'm afraid the entrenched moderates, Rudy McRomney, are the ones who will not be able to win against "moderate" Democrats.
