NRA Forum
On Friday the NRA (National Rifle Association) hosted a forum where they invited Republican Presidential candidates to come and express their stance on gun control. None of the Democratic candidates were invited to the forum. According to a NRA spokesman they were not invited because " they have not showed respect of the 2nd Amendment. Giuliani, who had a liberal view on gun control as Mayor of New York, squared off against other Republicans for these views. It did not help his argument when he answered a phone call from his wife during his speech. This was not only rude, but also unprofessional. Does America really want a president who takes phone calls while publicly discussing important issues?

first let me say that i found it a bit harsh that no democratic candidates were invited. "respect" has to be earned, like most would say, and maybe the 2nd ammendment didn't show any respect to the democrats... but that doesn't mean they didn't have an opinion, and they should of been allowed to express it. But in regaurd to your oringinal question, I think its safe to say America doesn't want a president who purposely plans to accept a call from his wife during a very important forum. The sadest part of the whole thing for me was that it was a hoax for tv time.
