He’s my favorite candidate for U.S. president (my next preference would be Mitt Romney and then Rudy Giuliani). I heard him speak to the Wednesday Morning Club August 22, 2006. The Denver Post does him wrong in its report:
Tancredo’s candidacy will be focused almost entirely on immigration issues, which he hopes to bring to the forefront among the leading Republican candidates of Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney and Sen. John McCain. The Littleton Republican is one of the nation’s most outspoken critics of allowing Mexicans and Central Americans to cross the border and obtain jobs in the United States.
Tancredo talks about many things aside from immigration. Tancredo and other anti-illegal immigration activists have no problem with Mexicans and Central Americans crossing the border and working in the United States. He simply wants them to do it legally.
