Is Tom Tancredo the only nominee for president that is against illegal immigration in any form?
Answer:
Yep, and that makes him unique, the rest have all caved into special interest groups on this subject in both parties.
Tom will not be intimated by whining "open borders" advocates
i dont care, we dont need another jesus freak in the whitehouse
yes, i believe that mr. tancredo is the only candidate speaking plainly about illegal immigration.
there was 1 other, can't remember who it was. it was 3 am when i watched the rerun. tancredo still has my vote. he's the only one who has been voicing his opinions on this.
I'm unsure, but I believe Mitt Romney has also taken a hard-line anti-illegal immigration stance. The rest are more interested in votes than security. Ironically, they're losing votes because of their political posturing and the legislation to reward illegal alien CRIMINALS.
No. Lucky for you Senator Sam Brownback (Republican from Kansas) hates immigration, too!
I personally know him, and I wouldn't vote for him if at all possible.
AND I QUOTE FROM WIKI:
This article has been nominated to be checked for its neutrality.
Discussion of this nomination can be found on the talk page.
Brownback told Rolling Stone that he had moved from mainline Protestantism to evangelicalism before his 2002 conversion to Catholicism, and that in 1994 he became involved with The Fellowship, a Christian Conservative U.S. political organisation.
Brownback defines himself as a social conservative. He cites former Senator Jesse Helms as a model.[15] He is strongly pro-life, having referred to the number of abortions in the United States since Roe v. Wade as "a holocaust."[16]
Brownback was a co-sponsor of the Constitution Restoration Act, which would have limited the power of federal courts to rule on church/state issues. The legislation had little chance of passing, but it served to rally support from religious conservatives. Brownback told Rolling Stone that he chairs the Senate Values Action Team, an off-the-record weekly meeting of representatives from religious conservative organizations.
Brownback is a strong supporter of the traditional marriage movement and is an opponent of same-sex marriage and gay rights.
In a May 3, 2007 debate among the Republican candidates, Brownback was one of three who indicated that he did not believe in the theory of evolution. [4]
While believing there is no inherent right to privacy in the U.S. Constitution, he expresses disapproval of President Bush's assertions on the legality of the NSA wiretapping program.[18] In accordance with his Roman Catholic beliefs (after he converted in 2002), he has, however, taken a moderate approach to capital punishment. In a speech on the Senate Judiciary Committee, he questioned the current use of the death penalty as potentially incongruent with the notion of a culture of life, and suggesting for its employment in a more limited fashion.[19]
Senator Brownback has stated that he opposed President Bush's 2007 troop surge in Iraq and the Democrats so-called "cut and run" strategy
According to an Associated Press report by reporter Laurie Kellman,[21] "Brownback appeared with three children adopted from in vitro fertilization clinics" to coincide with a Senate debate over the Cord Blood Stem Cell Act of 2005 to show his support for the bill and adult stem cell research and to demonstrate his belief that these children and others like them, conceived through in vitro fertilization, may not exist today if as embryos they were used in embryonic stem cell research. The Religious Freedom Coalition refers to children conceived through the adopted in vitro process as "snowflake children."[22] The term, as proponents explain, is an extension of the idea that the embryos are "frozen and unique," and in that way are similar to snowflakes.[22] Brownback supports the use of cord blood stem cells for research and treatment, instead of embryonic stem cells and was one of the sponsors of the bill in the Senate.[23]
Brownback visited refugee camps in Sudan in 2004 and returned to write a resolution labeling the Darfur conflict as genocide, and has been active on attempting to increase U.S. efforts to resolve the situation.[24] He is an endorser of the Genocide Intervention Network, which called him a "champion of Darfur" in its Darfur scorecard, primarily for his early advocacy of the Darfur Peace and Accountability Act.[25]
After the September 11 terrorist attacks, he worked with Senator Ted Kennedy on legislation that imposed stricter entry standards at the borders of the United States. Brownback worked with Congressman John Lewis to help win placement of the African American Museum on the National Mall in Washington, DC.
Brownback introduced into the Senate a resolution (Senate Joint Resolution 37) calling for the United States to apologize for its mistreatment of [Native Americans].
Brownback is also trying to introduce price transparency to the U.S. health care industry,[26] as well as a bill which would require the disclosure of Medicare payment rate information.[27]
In December 2005, Brownback advocated using Washington, DC as a "laboratory" for a flat tax. He stated, "that making D.C. a test case would, with limited potential for negative impact, provide valuable data about the effects of a flat tax that would prove helpful in determining whether it should be applied nationwide."[28] Some residents of the District believe that the proposed system of taxation would seem to only further what many believe to be the District's taxation without representation. DC mayor Anthony A. Williams said "Leaving aside the merits of this proposal, we continue to resist any efforts on the part of any member of Congress to impose rules and regulations on the people of the District."[29]
Brownback has attempted to curb the abuse sometimes suffered by mail order brides in the United States at the hands of their American spouses as a lead sponsor of the International Marriage Broker Regulation Act of 2005 and by frequently speaking out against the industry.[30]
On September 27, 2006, Brownback introduced a bill called the Truth in Video Game Rating Act (S.3935), which would regulate the rating system of computer and video games.
On June 15, 2006, President George W. Bush signed into law the Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act of 2005 sponsored by Brownback, a former broadcaster himself, and endorsed by Congressman Fred Upton of Michigan who authored a similar bill in the United States House of Representatives. The new law stiffens the penalties for each violation of the Act. The Federal Communications Commission will be able to impose fines in the amount of $325,000 for each violation by each station, which violates decency standards. The legislation raises the fine by a tenfold increase.[31][32]
On September 3, 1997, Meredith O'Rourke, an employee of Kansas firm Triad Management Services, was deposed by the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs regarding her activities and observations while providing services for the company relative to fund raising and advertising for Brownback. In her deposition, she states that campaign management for Brownback's campaign had provided Triad with a list of current donors, specifically those who had "maxed out" on the federal contribution limit of $2100. The deposition claims that Triad circumvented existing campaign finance laws by channeling donations through Triad, and also bypassed the campaign law with Triad running 'issue ads' during Brownback's first campaign for the Senate.
Just in case you were wondering about his other views.
No. Ron Paul is against illegal immigration and amnesty. He is a constitutionalist and represents true conservative politics.
Here is Paul's six-point plan for illegal immigration:

Check out Duncan Hunter.
He vigorously opposes the current immigration system. He is responsible for the 13 mile fence in San Diego and wrote the law for the 700+ mile fence that is supposed to be built, but never will.
Check him out:

He seems to be the only one,everyone else have a vested interest to make millions of illegals US citizens,the problem is that now this has become a precedent,twenty years from now we will be going through the same thing again with millions more coming in illegaly every year
None of the Democrats are willing to take a hard stance. Of the Republicans a lot have endorsed a "technological" fence that is not much more than a series of cameras that may or may not be backed by Border Patrol. Tancredo may have some electability problems(declared mentally unfit for combat, went back on a term limits promise). Duncan Hunter(R-CA) has also taken a very strong stance on immigration. Stronger than Tancredo in fact. Duncan Hunter is responsible for the original borer fence in CA. A 14 ft tall double-walled monstrosity that cut illegal immigration to his district by more than 2/3. He is also a former Vietnam vet that served in the 173rd Airborne as well as the 75th Rangers. The man is a hard@$$. Check him out.
It appears that he is the only one. Most of them totally evade the question altogether or couch the issue in terms of "comprehensive reform," which is only a code word for "amnesty."
Hunter sponsored the fence bill and is responsible for the fence in San Diego. Tancredo is more passionate, but Hunter may be more marketable.
Ron Paul is against criminal invaders.
