I guess this means that his name will be on the ballot, or we will be allowed to write-in his name. I will need to verify.

would be on the ballot. I checked my states
Secretary of State web site and it was confirmed

Awesome!! I will check California's SOS website. If enough people do this, maybe somebody will notice and get the message that the people don't like the official choices. Is that wishful thinking?

Arizona is covered!!!

Mystery candidates on AZ presidential ballot

Paul Giblin, Tribune

Aides for presidential candidates Rudy Giuliani and Ron Paul filed paperwork at the Arizona Secretary of State’s Office on Friday to be included in Arizona’s presidential preference election Feb. 5.

Read Paul Giblin's blog, Checking In
To date, the list features eight Republicans and seven Democrats. Both sides include several mystery candidates.

The Republicans: Known candidates include Giuliani, Paul, Duncan Hunter and Mitt Romney, plus people named John Fitzpatrick, Daniel Gilbert, John McGratch and Jack Shepard.

The Democrats: Known candidates include Christopher Dodd, John Edwards and Mike Gravel, plus people named Frank Lynch, Leland Montell, Philip Tanner and Evelyn Vitullo.

Secretary of State’s Office spokesman Kevin Tyne noted that, according to Arizona law, prospective candidates need only be U.S. citizens to appear on the ballot.

“As in years past, we have citizens who know that and just get their names on the list,” Tyne said. “They don’t necessarily have campaign committees or are nationally involved.”

According to Shepard’s candidacy paperwork, he lives in Rome. Yes, Rome, Italy.

The Secretary of State’s Office will continue to collect paperwork from presidential candidates until 5 p.m., Dec. 17.

I can't confirm it for Ohio but I signed a petition last November to get Ronny on the ballot in Ohio.

We have the racism candidate Obama, the sexism candidate Hilliary and the RINO candidate McCain....that leaves Paul.

I don't see how you can be a fan of Rush Limbaugh and Ron Paul both. They have vastly different views of the world.

You have a point. But let me put it this way, in the words of one of the greatest Conservative philososphers:

"Conservatism is constantly swimming against the tide, because it's hard. Conservatism is an intellectual application. One arrives at conservatism after having thought about things, after having been curious. Liberalism is simply what you feel."-----Rush Limbaugh


I have always been a Conservative and I appreciate honest Conservative thought from any candidate.





Proud dittohead,

Unfortunately it probably is. He would be my choice also, but I believe at this stage of the game a vote for him would really only benefit the democratic candidate
