That bit about tuition-breaks really gets me mad. I started going to the University of Arizona as an undergraduate, but couldn’t afford to keep paying the out-of-state tuition, so I went back to my home-state Oregon. Didn’t do me any harm, sure, but…

why am I, who have a state, on a lower level from someone who has no state at all?

or Tancredo and Hunter for the Pres. and V.P. the 2 most believable of all candidates on all issues. They get limited media coverage, thus no chance.

Tancredo has a good point, where’s the guts?

We already know who Sanchez is pandering to.

Where’s the clip of Ron Paul pandering to Hispanics? (Asking seriously here — did he leave it out, or did Paul refuse to pander?)

I don’t like Paul, but he refused to pander. God booed out of the joint.

Tancredo’s right. Who were they talking to?

I’m not from New York and I’m not an evangelical, (but at least I’m an American and speak English). My vote for Fred in the primary is probably not going to account for anything so instead I’m going to vote for Tancredo on principle.

It’s all in the wording of the poll, though I give them props for actually saying “illegal”. If they asked “Do you support illegal immigrants (not CHILDREN of illegal immigrants) who graduate from high school in the US should pay taxpayer-funded in-state tuition rates just like legal state residents?

Notice how they say “should be allowed to attend”? They throw that in there on purpose, nice wordsmithing. That is to confuse the person being polled into thinking that the immigrant may even be DENIED admission. Yeah, the question deosn’t really say that, but when you say should they be allowed to attend, it plants the seed subconsciously. The pollwriter really knew what they were doing here.

He could easily beat the Dem nominee but:

1. Do we want him to? I will not vote for a liberal Democrat or Republican.

2. The campaign would be sleazier than usual if it is an all Arkansas race (Huck v. Clinton). Lots of skeletons in there.
