I think there is still some REAL untapped hope here for Conservative America and Republicans- among the muslim community. Don't run screaming yet, I've not gone mad!
I've personally gathered some "local intel" I consider valuable: That many muslim families no longer give at mosques, or to muslim charities because they do not want to fund terrorists. Stopping that giving alone may not seem like much to you or I, but to them it is a huge deal, and don't forget, IT SAVES LIVES! But wait, there's more!
They hate the corruption in their home countries- where they would be killed for speaking out against it. Even after decades here in the states to learn about our government- they say that although we have corruption it is nowhere near as bad as the lands they left. They are proud of their American freedoms and don't want to see this country become like that which they fled... that's something I wish the immigrants from our southern border would take to heart!
Again, though their religion may advocate violence against us- a lot of people were "born muslims" meaning they follow a couple traditions because that's what they've been doing for a thousand years, but they don't actually "practice" it. Our only way to win the war here isn't just by stocking up on ammo for when SHTF, but with using reason, logic, and smiles, making and winning over friends who don't like where they came from, but don't necessarily want someone shoving a Bible in their face and telling them they're going to Hell- that doesn't save ANYONE, and it just scares people away and makes you look like a fruit. Heck, I'm a Conservative Christian and I find it particularly scary! ;-) I'm not saying pander- far from it, so keep reading!
When they mentioned Ahmenidijad's statement about homosexuals they laughed. They said Iran is filled with gays!
As far as the school system goes, they don't like seeing a lot of the stuff taken out and substituted with teaching 2nd graders about homosexuality. They'd prefer an honest straightforward, and even Christian education to what the leftists are pushing which removes all reason, morals, and "cause and effect" from the system!
My assessment is that if someone could be a hardcore and blunt conservative politician and offer common American ground, the moderate muslim community could be a great tool and ally. I think many would support a Republican candidate in a heartbeat if someone would lay the cards on the table and publicly say, "I'm a Christian, I hate radical islam and the threat it poses to our country, and I, much like you of the moderate muslim community, want good morals in our society. The left wants us to surrender to the same sort of corruption most of you fled. I'm offering you a chance, as Americans, to have the same secure and free America that you came here looking for, in which you can be free to believe what you want without bringing harm to your fellow human beings." I would rather try to win them over to our side with logic, and plainly spoken conservative Christian morals (which actually DO appeal to them) than leave them vote for a democrat because they are scared of persecution.
They don't like the democrats because they kill babies, teach homosexuality, and are a reminder of the corruption in government they fled. Many families don't want catered to with public funds, because they know that money could be better spent on America as a whole... just as you or I would probably not think it right to take something we don't need/ are not entitled to- like welfare. It's stealing, and it's just as wrong to them as it is to us... we need to make these points and use them to get them on our side! No, it's not just for PSYOPS anymore!
They see the preferential treatment and the catering the illegals are getting from the leftists and they hate it as much as you or I. They learned the english language, just like many of our ancestors, because they want to be Americans. They hate seeing all the money wasted on posting everything in spanish. They hate to "press 1 for english." They worry about the illegals smuggling their anti-American culture, drugs, and violence across the border. They worry about terrorists smuggling something across the borders and want them secured too because it would threaten the peace they enjoy here! They've got just as much reason, if not more, for wanting the border secure. These days, most of us don't fear being rounded up and beaten or worse... something that's more likely to happen under a democrat anyway...
The enemy of my enemy, really could be our friend.
Like most people they are stuck trying to pick what is best for their families, so us conservatives are missing out on a great opportunity to gather support from a most unlikely source. There is a void that needs filled.
I know a lot of people will think I'm crazy for even suggesting it- but we actually have more in common with them than we do with the leftists and socialists who want us to surrender to radical islam!
------------
Well, that's one more long rant from me today! :-) I've been vague about my sources for good reason, so don't ask.
------------
Follow up/summary: There are grandparents and parents who dislike the moonbats as much as us. If a conservative candidate gets elected, we can beef up the military, secure the borders, put an end to baby killing, and accomplish all the things on our list of issues. Many "muslims" feel strongly about these issues because the leftists are immoral and threaten the long term stability and security of this nation. If we can divide some of the muslims by showing them life in the U.S. will be better and moral under conservative government, we will stand a better chance of getting conservatives in office, and we'll also be breaking down the supposed "united front" that our country thinks they have.

A Rant Against An Isolationist "neo-moonbat"
I call them a "neo-moonbat" because they twist some conservative ideas into a strategy for defeat and the eventual destruction of this nation- different strategy from their leftist counterparts, same end result.
----------------
"What if we we didn't do anything? i contend nothing would be any different"
X, as an International Security Specialist I must "contend" that you are wrong in your assessment.
If we do nothing, as you propose, the terrorists who have publicly proclaimed that they are going to attack us... (get ready, because this is a big surprise for most Ron Paul supporters)... they will ACTUALLY be able to attack us!
Look up their little "perfect day scenario" They want to activate existing cells, they want to continue to spread lies and propaganda here, but wait, there's more... they want to continue to chop off heads, cook children and serve them to their parents, torture (and I don't mean make them wear underwear on their head), and murder people, not just in the Middle East, but on U.S. soil.
"All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing." I've seen that quite a lot lately, maybe you missed it... so read it again. There's a lot of truth to it. "Not my problem" is the attitude that leads to the decline of morality and nations. It is not what this charitable nation is about. However, when I hear stories of someone being publicly beaten without someone lending a hand to rescue them because "it's not my problem" I worry, as every time that happens, America dies a little.
No, we can't be everywhere. We are in Iraq now. For better or worse. There were WMDs they were evacuated or hidden, while your head is in the sand doing nothing, maybe you can at least help look... We removed a petty dictator who abused his people, and people are getting safer there- slowly but surely. Historically insurgent warefare is a pain in the butt, and we have to think long-term. Sadly, we will be there a while longer. Sadly, more troops will die. However, if we pull out, or do "nothing" when we have an opportunity to do something to make some people safer, the terrorists will see an opening and exploit it- one of the OLDEST lessons about warfare.If we leave before crushing them, they will proclaim a victory against us, the "Great Satan." Who cares what they say? Well, their millions of followers who are sitting on the fence. It would be a huge recruiting bonus to anyone who could proclaim any relationship to kicking our butts.
If we let Iran do whatever it wants, they will... (Here's another surprise for the Ron Paul fans) likely do what they want! What they want includes wiping Israel off the the map. This would involve slaughtering a lot of Jews. I'm sure Ron Paul wouldn't have wanted us to lift a finger to help them in WWII, but by the time he would want us to do something Europe would have fallen and all their resources would have been against us too! We'd be having this debate in German.
Here's another newsflash for the isolationists: Covering your eyes and ears doesn't make the bad people go away. I have the greatest respect for our Constitution, that's why I took a life-long oath to protect and defend it. Defending it doesn't mean sitting on my ass waiting until the enemy has a gun to my head.
The bad people are invading Europe, this time it's not with blitzkrieg, but Europe is surrendering with appeasement anyway. Jefferson was very forward thinking. He had a koran because he was enlightened. He was studying the enemy. Our first war after the Revolution was fought against these barbarians. We won it by going to them and crushing them, not doing waiting for them to come to us. Remember Tripoli. He proclaimed "millions for defense, not one more cent in tribute!" See, we tried appeasement in the past, it does not work. We tried keeping out of the rest of the world's business. it doesn't work either. We can't police the entire world, but we CAN find a balance in picking our fights that will make the greatest difference in the course of events. Allowing islamofascism to flourish by "doing nothing" only lets it grow into something we will have to face later when they start kicking down doors, raping students in schools, and then executing them... Oh, didn't you know that's what they did in Beslan? They want to do it here. They will do it here unless we do something... not nothing.

Maryland Lawmaker Stands Up Against Illegals!
Del. McDonough’s "Five Star Citizen Action Plan” features proposals that would: - Ban all contractors who employ illegal aliens from state government jobs - Prohibit illegal aliens from voting and mandate identification confirming citizenship - Regulate day labor centers and stop them from providing services to illegal aliens - Prohibit illegal aliens from receiving Maryland drivers' licenses - Lobby the State Senate to prevent the passage of a law offering discounted tuition at Maryland colleges to the children of illegal aliens
“I'm pretty upset about the way that we allow criminals into this country and we tell them, ‘Yeah come on in and by the way we're going to give you free things,’" said Bob Jones of Randallstown.
-------
I think that statement echoes how we all feel, and the above proposal is a great start. Good luck Maryland!

Hunter Vows to Build Fence, Fight Terror
Hunter wants to keep pressure on terrorists and Vows to Build Fence outlining how he would do it, and how he has stood firm on these issues.
Another Politician Stands Up Against Superhighway! HOORAH!
Oklahoma State Sen. Randy Brogdon, who told a meeting in Tulsa that "The NAFTA Superhighway stops here at the border with Oklahoma."
Strong words from a politician.
I'm thankful for his courage in making a stand. We need more people like this guy, who looks to me like an average American, and air condition wholesaler, just wanting to do some good. :-)

Your Defeatist Attitude About Voting Will Help Destroy Us- A Wake Up Call
"but unless things change ... I'm not sure he has a chance." I've seen or heard this comment EVERYWHERE when it comes to voting for someone (like Tancredo or Hunter) who has been completely steadfast in their beliefs. It is not my intent to single anyone out, so I want to make that perfectly clear- I've just heard it from too many people, and it's starting to add up.
Why shouldn't the best, most steadfast candidates "have a chance?"
See, that's the sort of defeatist attitude that leads to our eventual destruction. The Fall of America will be all YOUR fault if you don't vote for the right person because you feel they "don't have a chance"
j/k, sort of... thousands, no MILLIONS are thinking the exact same thing! "Why should I waste my vote on this guy? Even though he echoes what is in my heart, and what I know is right, he does not have a chance..." Baaah, baaaah. That is precisely the programing we must rid ourselves of!
If we only vote for people who "have a chance" that means we are letting someone else tell us who has a chance in the first place, be it the media or our discouraging "peers." What really determines who "has a chance?" We The People, of course! The majority of us really DO want change. We want someone willing to stick to his guns and defend this nation, get it "back on track," and gosh darn it, be politically incorrect while doing it!!!
If you would rather see someone who stands firm on their issues- the same ones you say you consider vitally important for the future of this nation, get out there and encourage others to vote for them- don't hedge your bets for the person the media tells you has a chance (who is just the lesser of two evils)!
Search for the truth, post it, maybe even mention an "underdog" candidate as an alternative to others who might not have heard of him and will just vote for "whoever has the best chance." This is the only way to plant the seeds of success and really change things!
How else can we get anything really drastic done by a president to get our nation back on track? Certainly not by playing "American Idol" with the Whitehouse anymore!
Unless us Americans vote our conscience, and vote for the right people, we, as a nation, are doomed to picking the lesser of two evils that are set before us by the people running things behind the scenes. Look how many years we've suffered for our collective apathy! "Oh, he doesn't have a chance..." WHY NOT?
Why are you letting the very people you are blogging about, talking about, telling others you wish they would be unbiased, etc..., tell you who has a chance?
It's because people have been conditioned to buy what the media sells them. Even us conservatives fail to see it staring at us right in the face from time to time. This time, the stakes are too high to pick the lesser of two evils. Even slowly moving us down the wrong path at this critical juncture is too much for this nation.
Naysayers will say that we've been through worse as a country... We have not since our Revolution or Civil War faced such a threat- even then it can be argued that the threat now is greater- England just wanted us to remain a subjugated colony. We can argue over North and South, but in the end it was about government and slavery went away as a result of the North winning. The slavery we all would face under radical islam, the fall of democracy, or a "peaceful" invasion of illegals is far worse than the typical abuse of traditional tyrants. The violent crime in this nation has already skyrocketed. Imagine if you will, the future if we continue down this path. The entire country is already slowly bending under a multitude of external forces. It may take years more for the end result to reach you, but the things we set in motion now will determine that end result. Chances are you already know someone who has been hurt by these forces- yet we go about as if there is nothing to be done- not much better than the sheep we try to wake up, really.
Our borders have always been porous, but the terrorist threat is higher than ever. The Cuban Missile Crisis is a joke in comparrison with what we are in danger of with each passing day unless something proactive is done. We have become desensitized as a population- even here in our little "right-wing blogosphere" where we are less blinded than others.
The enemy has clearly stated their intentions. We are playing for keeps this round. Unless we are dead serious about playing catch-up with our security and defense with this next president, it may be too late by the next chance we have to vote someone into office. This also means paying close attention to who we vote into Congress. I'm not singling anyone out with this, but asking everyone to look inside and make darned sure you are voting for who you know is the right person to lead us, and not who "has a chance." Sure, it's a little more risky- but not if we are all in this together.

Hunter, Another Neglected Republican Candidate
Edit/Note: I deleted a comment because I wanted to make a follow-up post and did not want to single anyone out because WE ARE ALL GUILTY of the same thought at sometime: "I'd vote for him, but he doesn't seem to have a chance."
----------------------
Why is this man an underdog given his firm stance on issues we consider important?
Why are he and Tancredo not taken as seriously as Thompson (who has CFR ties)?
The answer is that we are not making a bold enough stand, and the media is suppressing those who have the greatest chance of accomplishing the most good for this nation. We should offer no concessions to the leftists who want to turn our great country into a corrupt communist country. Good Americans outnumber the bad and those who have been blinded, so we should be able to make our voices heard without backing down even an inch.
He WILL build the fence and beef up border patrol
He wants to protect marriage and life
He is a firm advocate of 2nd amendment rights
He wants to keep going after terrorist leaders
He is willing to stand up to China
He wants to keep jobs in the U.S.
