WASHINGTON: All the news may be about Barack Obama and John McCain, but there are 255 other candidates running for president of the United States in
Tuesday's election.

The official Federal Election Commission list includes representatives of the usual minor parties, such as the Socialist Party, the Libertarian Party, the Green Party and the Reform Party, but it does not stop there.

On the ballot in Colorado is the United States Pacifist Party candidate, Bradford Lyttle, running on a platform to withdraw all troops from Iraq, reduce defence spending to zero and prepare for nonviolent resistance against a possible invasion.

Another candidate worried about a possible invasion is John Taylor Bowles of the National Socialist Movement. He promises free healthcare, full employment, and the "humanitarian relocation of all non-whites."

Campaign literature shows him sitting in a Storm Trooper outfit with a Nazi swastika on his arm.

If that is not to voters' tastes, perhaps they will go for self-proclaimed vampire Jonathon Sharkey, the founder of the Vampires, Witches and Pagans Party. He was arrested on September 28 in Tennessee and is under investigation for making threats against the president, but is still on the ballot in some states.

And for those who can get through election season - which by some counts has been going for almost two years - without a stiff drink, there is the perfect candidate: Gene Amondson of the Prohibition Party. With the country flirting with financial ruin, he is running on a platform that would outlaw alcohol.

Appears the president does not need to have a security clearance.

He is just a puppet in the white house.

OMG - even George Washington was just flashing his teeth in the invisible white house as an assurance that America is safe

Yeah, I just voted an hour ago and the ballot was filled with candidates for President I never heard of...and some I have heard of but wouldn't vote for under any circumstances...including O'Bomber.

That was a good post you made on O'Bomber not being able to get a security clearance with the FBI, CIA, NSA, DIA or any other agency which does background checks..including clerks in the US military who handle highly confidential, secret and top secret documents.

I was listening to the radio a few nights ago and heard a guy who applied for a job in one of the restaurants at Tampa International Airport. He said he had to fill out an application which listed his friends and associates and answer questions about his and/or their association with people or groups...radicals...engaged in terrorism or attempts to overthrow the United States or the US government.

Judging from that, O'Bomber couldn't get a job as dishwasher at a US airport restaurant.
