January 20, 2008 I now turn my endorsement to Ron Paul for the GOP nomination and for US President Greetings, everyone. Some of you may already know that Duncan Hunter has stepped out of the race. Rather disappointing; text below, for your reference, in case you didn't get the e-mail. I have seen Ron Paul steadily improve in his rhetoric about illegal immigration and his ad right before the New Hampshire primary was EXCELLENT. As many of you know too, he has always been against the North American Union. I have to say too, that I - as the web-master for Tom Tancredo - always said, we NEED to run our campaign like Ron Paul's campaign. His campaign is full of excitement. EVERYONE feels like they are valued and that they are making a difference and that their contributions, whether financial or in efforts, are appreciated. This was a MAJOR failing of the Tancredo campaign and I later came to believe that this was infact by the design of HQ. Ron Paul was always my third choice and I had an opportunity to tell him to his face that I would be very happy if he became the President. I think HE IS trustworthy. Many of his supporters, however, made me nervous and turned me off from his campaign. I have seen though that he is principled and is not afraid to offend many of his supporters. This has been seen in the recent South Carolina debate and also the anti-illegal immigration ad. You can research that out if you like, or I can dig up some articles on it. Go on WorldNetDaily.com, for instance. I also recently learned that Ron Paul is a fellow Baptist! I didn't know that! So, this is a good thing. He is a man of faith, but he tries to frame his arguments in ways that all patriotic citizens can appreciate. And we all know that he is the "Champion of the Constitution." I don't regret turning my endorsement to Ron Paul at this time. Of course, I will always wish that Tom's campaign was run differently, that it had someone else as the campaign manager/director, and that Tom would still be in the race stomping on the other campaigns, but, well, that will never be. I think that Ron Paul's campaign does have what it takes to win and he is the only remaining trustworthy candidate. I encourage all of you to back him at this time and to PRAY for God's MERCY and GRACE on our land! Take care and may God bless America! Subscribe to *ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION*
