U.S. Rep. Zach Wamp of Tennessee lists 10 reasons why Fred Thompson should be president. Wamp says he spent about an hour last week asking his Republican colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives what they thought about the possibility of Thompson, a former U.S. senator, running for President, and the reaction was encouraging...
What happened then was the political equivalent of March Madness with over 40 Members of Congress immediately signing up to either meet with Fred or outright volunteering to help
Wamp says Thompson "personifies strength and trust - the two primary characteristics people look for in a President," and is "a natural leader" and "a consistent conservative" on issues ranging from national security and second amendment rights to the sanctity of life and traditional marriage.
Plus, says Wamp, Thompson has charisma.
In the Senate they call it "gravitas." At home it's just plain old confidence. Fred knows who he is, where he came from and where we, as a nation, should go together.
Thompson, says Wamp, "is the closest thing to Ronald Reagan we have seen in a long time."
