The Current Opinion Of Fred Thompson




U.S.A 9/27/2007 2:37 AM GMT (FINDITT - Top Story)

With the late start of his run as president, Fred Thompson has certainly raised a few eyebrows and created some late night banter for television hosts. Though this has ruffled feathers amongst other presidency candidates it is not that big of a concern to the American people. With a fresh face to political polls and a well-known presence as an actor on the hit television show “Law and Order”, Fred Thompson is already been in the public eye.


With a current rating of 20% in a USA Today/ Gallup Poll on http://www.usaelectionpolls.com/ and other public opinion statistics Fred Thompson is either liked by the American people or voters are still unsure. A recent chart found on CNN.com shows that 32% of people find Thompson to be favorable. He is seen, as Unfavorable by 21% and 47% are unsure. The former Tennessee senator understands the disconnection between the people of this country and Washington.


With a well known presence as an actor and solid connections as a former senator Fred Thompson may be what the voters of today are looking for. With voters having lost confidence in the administration and the desperation for change, Fred Thompson may be the change that the American people need. If he continues to be unique in his approach and true to himself and the American people, great things may be in store for this long awaited desire for change and truth. Perhaps we will find a president who means what he says and doesn’t just speak of change but follows through.

The narrative of Thompson's campaign is forming in the media. "Grandpa Fred" comes across as lazy and ignorant. He never heard of the Jena 6, couldn't remember anything about Terry Schiavo. One reporter asked, "How long has this guy been in a coma?"

If he doesn't show some knowledge of SOMETHING pretty quick, his campaign is toast.
