Why 'Rent Is Too Damn High' Candidate Will Never Be Governor - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/atlantic/20101021/cm_atlantic/whyrentistoodamnhighcandidatewillneverbegovernor5481)


I almost want this to turn out to be another spoof like Borat and Joaquin Phoenix's movie, but the fact that he is a real person makes it amazing.

Could he be the craziest candidate running this year? Is YOUR rent too damn high?

Take care all.

I'd have no problem with a black Colonel Sanders in office. I have always wanted to marry a shoe..

Hell yeah, this is my state. I love this man. I'MMA VOTE FOR HIM.

Just kidding. Though seriously, if the other candidates piss me off more than they already have I just might vote for him. :mad: I'm a little baffled by his claim that in 1994 he walked from Brooklyn to Buffalo. There are so many things to dwell on with what's wrong with this man, but it's that spotlight on his website that makes me go :confused:. Also, he's a huge anti-semite, though it's not as if his ramblings about it make much sense. The dude be crazy.

He definitely is the best political candidate in New York.

I would unhesitatingly vote for him if I lived there, because politics are a joke anyway; it hardly matters who among the main parties we elect to screw us over, especially to state seats. People act like electing someone with personal opinions that differ from theirs (no matter how obscene they are) will make any difference at all... but it won't. Electing the bigoted Republican will more than likely do no more harm than electing the spineless, unprincipled Democrat.

I support any efforts which reveal what a farce our current system is, and voting for a joke candidate is a great way to do that.
