Here it be, clean and simple:
Would you vote for a Ron Paul/Tom Tancredo or Tom Tancredo/Ron Paul ticket in a 2004 GOP primary over President Bush?
Alternately, would you support the same Ticket as a calculated vote-splitter (Constitution or Libertarian Party) against Bush?
The voting and discussion begins now.

Yes and Yes, along with a Congress that supports them. Is there any rumor that either or both would run?
Also is your avatar a picture of you and if not, who is it?

Glad to hear it. Stay tuned for some news, that's all I can say right now.
As to my avatar, ho ho... (you'll hate this), the photo is of one Alfred M. Hubbard, better known as "Captain" Al Hubbard--a former OSS agent-turned-inventor (at 23 years old, created a nuclear-fission battery the size of a shoebox which powered a ferry-sized vessel around Seattle's Portico Bay for 3 days in the presence of confounded journalists w/o any sort of refueling, and whose patent was bought out by the Radium Corporation, Pittsburgh, PA, and snuffed as a competitor to Big Oil; he then went on to make $millions$ in the uranium mining business)-turned-LSD enthusiast. Politically right-wing, he was also an adventurer and "turned on" author Aldous Huxley and Timothy Leary (for the very first times) to lysergic acid diethylamide-25. A genius and mystic; psychedelic "white hat" Spook.
A kindred spirit (to me).

Yes, I would, despite Tancredo's neo-oid blind support for Israel. In fact, it would be the first ticket I've actually been excited about voting for!

Only if I can be a local campaign manager.

Absolutely. I haven't gone to the polls since I voted US Taxpayer Party in '96 but this would get me active again. Unlike Bush v. Gore, this would be a real case of lesser of two evils.

I doubt I will ever vote again, but if Paul/Tancredo were ever to come out in victory, would they hold true to the principles that define them right now?? As much as I am concerned over immigration, I am also concerned for the future of White people in this country. I am also concerned about the future of the First Amendment. As long as we continue to sell our souls to the state religions of Diversity and Holocaustianity, we don't have a chance. Immigration is continuing in this country almost entirely unchecked. Where's Tancredo?? Where's Paul?? If those two win the ballot, we will have even more immigrants in this country than we do right now. We cannot reverse time (unfortunately I wish that was possible), and I'm not willing to make any compromises. Honestly, although Paul/Tancredo are better on paper as opposed to Bush, I doubt I would go to the polls to cast a vote.

If you cross the NRA they'll try to get you thrown out of office, you cross the Israel-firsters, they try to destroy you, and that shuts down discussions about what's best for the US, so someone in Congress needs to stand up and admit that we can't have an honest discussion about "our" foreign policy because of the thuggish tactics of the Jew lobbies. Neither one of these pols has done that, so my support wouldn't be 100%, but I'd vote for Tancredo becuse of immigration. Of course, I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a mid-campaign NY Times editorial praising Tancredo for "growing" as a candidate, and for "reaching out to the middle" by moderating his extreme anti-immigration rhetoric, and that would once again cause me to find other things to do on election day.

The voting and discussion begins now. Nothing better to do... anything is worth a try! I did not vote for Jorge the first time
