Sounds kinda like one of those anti-tax conspiracies.

Eh it probably is sorta like that.

It just shows how far the establishment parties have pushed me that I am going to vote for the crazy old guy.

Never picked you for a guy who would vote for a person who isn't so keen on the Theory of Evolution.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

This is the Republican Primary Raz.  None of them are keen on the Theory of Evolution.  Voting on that issue would put me in quite a pickle.

I solve this problem by not voting in the Republican primary. :)

If you tried a little harder you could probably be a candidate since ill mental health doesn't seem to be a disqualifier :D
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Well you have to be crazy to want to be President so I would say it is a requirement.

true, but the repubs have a better crazy quota. They're either crazy, womanizers, or texans. None of which is a good option :P

The Republican leadership Must know that 2012-16 is going to be really bad, they Do Not want to win.  :ph34r:

It would help if I had cash.  What is the cost to run in a Republican primary.

If this guy can run for US Senate, surely you're good enough to run for something or other.  It cost him $10,400 to do so.

Screw that. If you manage to bum 10 grand off of strangers, use it to buy a car or something. And if you're using your own money, you should watch The Producers.

"I'd like to see us reduce government to meet the revenue, not raise revenue to meet the government."  I saw that quoted on Twitter (Gingrich, maybe?) and I like it. :) 
That's been the reactionary and Luddite call all along.  Read about the US preparedness for the wars of 1812, 1861, and 1914 to see where that leads.  I will concede that it is simplistic and likely very attractive to simpletons.
Well, you guys did win two out of three of those wars. 
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Yeah, if I had 10 grand I sure as hell wouldn't waste it on a vanity office run.

I might.  Ten years in the House and my loans get discharged.

Oh, also, helping people and shit.

How would you help people by being a Rep?  Would you give free tours on the side?
