Some pretty hilarious stuff can be found on these websites which profile presidential candidates for the 2004 election. Take a look for instance at the site for Other Republican candidates:
Rev. Jack Fellure previously registered with the FEC as a Presidential candidate in 1992, 1996 and 2000. Days after the 2000 election — but before the winner was known — Fellure filed FEC paperwork to run again in 2004. Fellure believes that President George H.W. Bush was responsible for fanning “the flames of international, Satanic, Marxist socialism to the exclusion of our national sovereignty.” Further, Fellure said that President Clinton subsequently “shifted into overdrive the socialistic, Marxist New World Order agenda.” He says our country is “being destroyed by atheists, Marxists, liberals, queers, liars, draft-dodgers, flag-burners, dope addicts, sex perverts and anti-Christians.” Fellure, clearly, does not buy into the whole “Big Tent” concept of the GOP. In 1992, Fellure qualified for the NH primary ballot and finished in 24th place (36 votes).
Hmm, he could appeal to some of the folks from VFR.
On the Independent side there’s a very close contest for looniest candidate but this guy would have to be in the top 10:
Henri Calitri sent Politics1 a lengthy, handwritten note explaining that he plans to run for President in 2004. It also set forth his rather … umm … unusual platform. Here are some excerpts from Calitri’s note: “My political party believes in expressing as many laws to put forth as can possibly be conceived … My dreams consist of forming a unit composed of a modern couple who will assimilate information on the magic techniques of penis enlargement through articles in popular magazines and medical journals … I am looking forward to creating a large research office in discovering immortality for a human being to live till the age of 925 years … At this time, I believe that I must become the President of the United States of America, or something similar, to be able to effectively do this. I want human beings to survive, most certainly on earth, as a beautiful organism, in sync with all aliens also living in this zone of space, occuring in the dimension [of] Hell.” Huh? From other info found on the net, Calitri is apparently an Aries, a tow truck operator and involved in pagan/wiccan groups. He’s also written an article about how tow trucks would have been useful to the ancient Egyptians during the building of the great pyramids. No campaign site yet … but I can’t wait to see it!
