Duncan Hunter tackles the nanny state

Duncan Hunter, R-California, is running for president.

Education issues are not the foundation of Duncan Hunter’s bid for the Republican presidential nomination.He’s mostly running on an anti-immigration platform.

But the veteran California congressman is a proponent of school of choice, parents rights and homeschooling.

On his campaign Web site, Duncan says the 2 million homeschooled children in this country need a voice:

“…It is important that we make every effort to ensure these students have the same access and opportunities to federal benefits, such as financial aid, as those who attend public school.”

Hunter is seen as a long shot for the GOP nomination — or winning Tuesday’s primary for that matter.

But he’s still campaigning around the state, with stops planned this week in Caro, Flint, Battle Creek and Livonia.

Here’s what Hunter told The Des Moines Register in July about education and inspiring kids.

  1. I spread the word on Hunter by posting various Hunter articles in different forums throughout the web. However, since Hunter is being shut out my the media, it’s getting hard to find information worthy of posting. Come on Hunter do something, anything, to make yourself more visible.

  2. Keep on spreading the word. TPTB cannot ignore Hunter for too long. Its just a matter of patience.

  3. Congratulations Mr. Hunter on your Football team, the San Diego Chargers beating up on the World Champion Indianapolis Colts!!! What a shocker!! Maybe now you can get some exposure!

  4. I have been visiting chat rooms in other states and leaving my comments, when the rooms will accept me.

    You are the best, I don’t know why people are not doing their homework instead of being like robots waiting on the media to tell them how to vote.

  5. Thanks for posting about Hunter on the boards, friends.

    You can also reach millions of people, if you call a talk show. In fact, Bill Cunningham has millions of listeners, and he is on in about 15 minutes. His number is 1-800-843-2441, but call right at 10 p.m., or a few minutes later, Eastern Time, to be sure to get on.

    If you missed tonight, you can try next Sunday night.

  6. Excellent idea, Bev DeCarlo. Thanks.

    I wish this site had an open forum so we could discuss ideas for promoting Hunter more.

  7. Jose, I don’t think “thelastinkling” would mind if we promote Hunter anywhere, like here. :)

    btw, Bill Cunningham says on most of his shows that he likes Hunter a lot, including tonight. Cunningham wanted to get Hunter on his show, and Cunningham said so in several shows, but for some reason it didn’t happen. Maybe Hunter had previous engagements on Sunday nights.

  8. Pat Gray is also a Hunter supporter. If you go to his website, you can see all the information there. patgray.com Pat gray is Glenn Beck’s best friend, and he is a big time Hunter supporter!!! However, I do hear some of Beck’s Romney influence in him.
