Tom Tancredo would be a great president. He takes a firm stand on illegal immigration and is strong on education as well. He could really unite the Reagan conservatives.

Tom Tancredo is the Republican Congressman from Colorado's 6th Congressional District. He has held that position since 1998. Using his strong stance on immigration as a basic platform, he has recently announced his bid for a run at the Presidency.

Yeah :) I know who he is. He's the bright man who wanted to bomb Mecca:
"If this [terror attack] happens, and if, in fact, we can prove that it was perpetrated by some fundamentalist Islamic - 'Islamo-fascist' is really I think what we should call them - then you might think about this as a threat, the retaliation on their holy sites," Tancredo told Fox News.
"We are talking about a situation where our very lives are at stake, not just the life of the United States, but of Western civilization," he insisted.
Last Thursday, Tancredo was asked about the prospect of an al-Qaida nuclear attack on U.S. soil.
He told WFLA Florida radio host Pat Campbell:
"You know, there are things that you could threaten to do before something like that happens - and then you may have to do afterwards - that are quite draconian."
The Colorado Republican then explained: "What if you said something like: If this happens in the United States and we determine that it is the result of extremist, fundamentalist Muslims - you know, you could take out their holy sites."
Asked if he was talking about bombing Mecca, Tancredo replied: "Yeah."
You can see why Republicans would be enthusiastic about him

Yep.
He is currently a Rep (R) from Colorado.
A very long shot for the presidency.

You bet. He's considering a run for President.
He's very tough on immigration and abortion.
