Re: Buchanan is a straight shooter indeed. I actually saw him presenting his book "The Death of the West" on TV...

Were you fortunate enough to meet his running mate, the exquisite Ezola Foster? Here's an excerpt of one of her campaign speeches:

Reform Party Vice Presidential
Nomination Acceptance Speech
Ezola Foster
Long Beach, California
August 12, 2000


[cheers, crowd: "Ezola! Ezola!"]

Thank you. Thank you.

Speaking of race, I have a message for those who continue to spread the lie that Pat Buchanan is a racist. I was born black, I attended all Negro schools including college, I grew up in the segregated South during Jim Crow. If anybody knows a racist, I do. Pat Buchanan ain't no racist. [cheers]

Now, there are some hateful people out there that are putting out the word that Pat Buchanan is homophobe. I have to tell you, I looked that up in the dictionary. I guess my dictionary is outgraded-- outdated, because I didn't find that word, but I suppose they mean homophobia. Well, from 1969 to 1984, until he died of AIDS, a teacher and I were very good friends. He even attended celebrations at my home, and I have to admit I even went with him to gay bars once in a while. So I know a homophobe when I see one. Pat Buchanan ain't no homophobe, believe me. [cheers]

At a recent rally in support of Pat Buchanan, I had the privilege of listening to Sam Cohen, the father of the neutron bomb. And Sam Cohen talked about Pat Buchanan. He first gave his background, his heritage dates back to Biblical days, he is of Jewish heritage. And he spoke of his relationship with Pat Buchanan, and he said that Pat Buchanan is not an anti-Semite. But let me be more emphatic. Pat Buchanan ain't no anti-Semite. [cheers, crowd: "Win, Pat, win! Win, Pat, win!"]

Buchanan is a straight shooter indeed. I actually saw him presenting his book "The Death of the West" on TV back in 2001 and he did a convincing job of that.

I like Buchanan although I don't agree with all his positions.
