Support the Fair Tax Fred
It’s a huge surprise to me that Republicans aren’t embracing the Fair Tax Plan. They desperately need a catalyst to bring conservatives and moderates out of the wood work. True conservatives have no motivation to get out to vote in 2008, unless Hillary is nominated. While that is a good reason to rile the conservative base, the Republicans need something to run on like the Fair Tax Plan and/or securing our borders. Many Americans are uninformed when it comes to a national sales tax plan and how it takes the power away from the politicians and puts it in the hands of the people. Mike Huckabee is the only Republican candidate representing the Fair Tax. While he is shaking up the polls some in Iowa, I don’t think he can secure the nomination because of his lack of name recognition. Fred Thompson, after getting off to an awfully slow start could turn things around if he would endorse the Fair Tax. He is a Reagan conservative that supports border control with a great following considering his late entry into the race. Come on Fred, support the Fair Tax and get your campaign rolling.
I couldn’t agree with you more regarding the Fair Tax. I think it will be a bitter fight, due to the fact that our bloated goverment is used to taking as much of our money as they please, but it is certainly the right thing to do for the American people.
If a candidate wants to stand out and show that they have our best interest at heart, they should be trying to fix our horrible tax system. The Fair Tax is one of the best ways to do just that.
