Tom Tancredo in 2007 GOP primary debate at Ronald Reagan library

On Abortion: Greatest day in history when Roe v. Wade is repealed

ROMNEY: Absolutely.

BROWNBACK: It would be a glorious day of human liberty and freedom.

GILMORE: Yes, it was wrongly decided.

HUCKABEE: Most certainly.

HUNTER: Yes.

THOMPSON: Yes.

McCAIN: A repeal.

GIULIANI: It would be OK to repeal.

TANCREDO: After 40 million dead because we have aborted them in this country, that would be the greatest day in this country's history when that, in fact, is overturned.

On Abortion: Embryonic stem cell research is morally reprehensible

A: There are billions of dollars going into this research right now. It does not require me taking money from federal fund because it is morally reprehensible in certain ways.

On Education: Does not believe in evolution

McCAIN: Yes.

Q: I'm curious, is there anybody on the stage that does not agree, believe in evolution?

[TANCREDO, HUCKABEE, and BROWNBACK raise their hands, indicating that they do not believe in evolution].

McCAIN: I believe in evolution. But I also believe, when I hike the Grand Canyon and see it at sunset, that the hand of God is there also.

On Health Care: Ridiculous to clone people for donating organs

A: I don't believe that the president of the United States should be putting forth a plan to do such a thing. The reality is that technology and the advancement of technology in a variety of areas is going at a pace where I believe we can look forward to cures -- we can look forward to a variety of things that will allow us to cure diseases that today we do not have cures for. But the idea that I think is inherent in this question, that somehow we should be growing these things, somehow we should be cloning people for the purpose of using these kinds of their attributes is ridiculous. I absolutely would not support it.

On Immigration: Keep law that bars immigrants from running for president

PAUL: I'm a no, because I am a strong supporter of the original intent

GIULIANI: When he called me up to endorse him, he got me on the phone, he said, "Will you endorse me?", and I was too afraid to say no. I would say yes.

TANCREDO: Intimidating as he might be, I'm saying no.

On Immigration: Letting immigrants stay is amnesty

McCAIN: We've been working very hard for a couple of months with Democrats and Republicans, led by the president and his Cabinet, to come up with a comprehensive solution and resolution of this terrible problem of illegal immigration. One thing we would all agree on, the status quo is not acceptable. We have to secure our borders. But we also need a temporary worker program, and we have to dispose of the issue of 12 million people who are in this country illegally. This issue needs to be addressed comprehensively.

On Tax Reform: Support the fair tax & repeal of the 16th Amendment

A: I absolutely support the fair tax. It has to be accompanied, however, with the repeal of the 16th Amendment or we'd end up with a consumption tax and an income tax. But you will not touch the deficit until you actually deal with the structural problem in mandatory spending. That's where all the money is. It is, in fact, mandatory spending that has to be dealt with, or forget the idea of deficit spending.

On War & Peace: Ok to attack Iran if they develop nukes & threaten Israel

A: There are two kinds of Irans that we are going to have to deal with here: one headed by a gentleman who believes that he is going to be responsible for the coming of the 12th imam; and a guy with a bomb, that should put us in the position of saying that anything we can do to stop that is imperative. And if Israel is put in that position, and we need to be involved in order to protect both ourselves and the Israelis, then of course we respond in the appropriate fashion.

Q: If the prime minister asks you for help, you say you will say yes?

A: Well, there are conditions, of course, under which we would say yes. But if there is a threat to the existence of Israel, which is a potential threat to the existence of the United States, then you have to come to the aid of Israel.
