TO>I, as a member of the NRA, as well as other Por-Gun groups, certainly
TO>do not believe that Bob Dole will protect my RTKBA, as he has had
TO>a major role in the recent past, in the "banning" of whatever it was
TO>that was supposedly banned.??!!
TO>However, the NRA as an organisation,

TO>must get the Clintons out,
Why?
Seriously, why?
Since the President cannot, absolutely, unequivocally, can not write
legislation.  That is Congress only.  The worse a rabid anti-gun
president should be able to do is veto each and every repeal bill.  He
can not, repeat, can not create new anti gun laws.
The actual source of those anti-gun and other anti-Constitution laws
that the President (Clinton or Dole) would sign is Congress.  The
republican majority Congress.
Now you tell me, if Congress hated the President, and fought him at
every turn, would that Congress be more or less likely to do what the
President wants then a Congress that loved the President, as one of
their own?
Perhaps, just perhaps, we as gun owners would actually be better served
with Clinton as President then Dole.  With Clinton the republican
majority Congress might possibly fight him at every turn.  True, they
haven't done so yet, but they might.  Even if they don't, they will not,
and have not, cottoned up to Bill as they have Bob Dole.  Good ole
Bobby, one of their own.  Bob, with many friends and connections.  Dole,
the one with many favors owed him in Congress.  Just how much will the
republican majority Congress fight against good ole Bob when he starts
asking for favors and calling in chits, to get more gun control laws
made?
With Clinton, there is a chance for opposition.  With Dole, there really
isn't.
TO>and Dole is the only other candidate that
TO>has a chance (unfortunately). I do think that Dole would be more
TO>open to negotiation, when it comes to firearms issues, than Bill
TO>has been. I still have no respect for either of them. What a mess!
TO>Take care.
TO>... Order your Chia Klinton, today!  Comes with weed and Flowers!
