Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Littleton, Colo.) may join the increasingly expanding field of GOP candidates for president. It was rumored in the spring of 2006 that Congressman Tancredo would not run for president and instead focus on the Senate seat of Wayne Allard (R) should he retire.
The list of presidential wannabes could get a little longer soon. Rep. Tom Tancredo, a Colorado Republican who has gained a national following — and the ire of some Latino groups — as a staunch opponent of illegal immigration, hinted Friday that he is ready to pursue the Oval Office.
When asked whether he plans to take action to start an official bid for the GOP nomination he said, “That is a distinct possibility.”
If Tancredo throws his hood into the fray, he will have to battle Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Alpine, Calif.) for the Bill Cutting vote.
