As a regular watcher of Law and Order, I was excited to see the one and only Fred Thompson enter the race for President as a Republican candidate. In a throwback to Arnold Schwarzenegger's joining the Gubenatorial race in 2000, Thompson announced his candidacy from the comfort of Jay Leno's couch on the Tonight Show. Although his much anticipated entry to the race was shocking to almost no one, many people still are unaware of what he stands for as a candidate.
On his newly minted website Fred08.com, the former Congressman shares his views on the long reaching arm of the Government in a short clip titled, "Federalism," Thompson discusses the importance of not giving too much power to the Federal Government, which seems like a bit of a shoddy argument for someone running to be the leader of our government.
Like many other Republican candidates, Thompson emphasizes family values and is against gay marriage. Hopefully we can learn more about Fred Thompson as he builds his campaign in the coming months.
