Congratulations on the majority of you who make fun of the guy. He could honestly believe all those things and act upon them, but you don't find him serious because he sounds a little "funny." I hope you're proud of yourselves. I doubt you'd mock the man in front of his face.

When anybody preaches disunity, tries to pit one of us against each other through class warfare, race hatred, or religious intolerance, you know that person seeks to rob us of our freedom and destroy our very lives.

I'm actually reminded of this guy:

Koichi Toyama
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koichi_Toyama

He's a street musician who ran for Governor of Tokyo, where candidates are guaranteed time to air their views on television. Essentially, he rants about Japan, says they need to overthrow the government and burn everything to the ground, and then flips off the camera.

Ironically, he'd probably do just-as-good a job as current governor Shintaro Ishihara, who regularly spouts such racist gems as: "Africans — I don't mean African-Americans — who don't speak English are there doing who knows what. This is leading to new forms of crime such as car theft. We should be letting in people who are intelligent."

It's really a brave new world.

just because someone says a couple of things that are true doesn't mean i'd trust them any further then i can throw them, especially when almost everything else they say is either ignorant, self contradictory, or some combination of both.

just as a guess, and i'm only guessing, he HAS to be trying to out satyre max.
gahd help us if we start actually electing people the only thing we know about is that they have a sense of satyre.

(as presumably may have happened in arizona, and in other places where enough people have shrugged their shoulders at tyranny to get away with it)
truth isn't what i say. isn't what you say. isn't what anybody says. truth is what is there, when no one is saying anything.

No one can out satyr Max: the man's a beast! But, if he's trying to out-satire him......hmmm, that might be very, very, difficult.

I... what? I mean seriously, what? He doesn't sound a little funny. He's so incoherent he makes Sarah Palin sound like George W. Bush. And he thinks traffic stops are slavery. I'll allow that he could believe all these things. He probably does. It doesn't make him any less hilarious.

We need to petition Webster's to make "violents" the proper and official spelling of "violence."

I enjoy his detailed review of American History as well:

Can our country be a republic when the founders free usin 1776---then one the founder became a traitor to a republic and became a democrate then a democrary republic took charge of our time line then split in 1825 and 1866 the congress said we were invaded by the domiment party and today we say a pledge to a repulic , but democacy must live on and we say no oath to it.

Bravissimo!

Agreed. Let us flood them with requests for violents is the only solution to our problems.

I support this man and his running for governor. In a land where rule is supposed to be by the hard-working, average person on the street, I think this wonderful man will represent those people. And furthermore, he cannot be swayed by big business, or communists, and he appeals to both sides of the political spectrum.
