Raymer For President


Recommended Posts

"Greg Raymer, the 2004 WSOP champion, is considering joining famed sports handicapper Wayne Allyn Root on a Libertarian ticket at the run for the Presidency. Root, who is going to try to win the Libertarian nomination, and Raymer are currently feeling each other out to see if they would make good running mates."Kinky.

One sunny Friday in May, Root, who says after being long-time Republican switched to Libertarian last year, welcomed a cameraman into his home to film him, Raymer and Mike Matusow talk about the state of politics in America and how he believes he could reinvigorate a party of charmless “intellectuals.”Any legitamacy for me was sucked out when Matusow was in the room.

"Raymer does have the background for politics. Before he became WSOP Champ, he worked as a patent attorney. "Lol, yea patent attorneys and politicians are like the same thing!

I hope he does run. We need to have someone who can draw attention to the Libertarian party. I'm not convinced that either of these guys is the one to do it, but let's give them a chance.

Patent attorney, failed businessman, what's the difference? If one can be president than why not the other? :club:

Believe it or not, I was a non-voting delegate to the Libertarian Party nominating convention for the 2000 election. If Raymer weren't famous for winning the WSOP, I'd be for him 100 percent. Unfortunately, since Libertarians have a reputation for being loony gun-toting hippie outlaws (er, not that there's anything wrong with that), I hardly see how running "a gambler" is going to help anything in the eyes of the public. On the other hand, since nobody takes the party seriously anyway, the media coverage might be good for drawing attention to the issues. He's articulate enough to pull it off, so why not? I'd like to see Carla Howell run with him; not sure if she's interested.

The libertarian had a real chance to get something going, but the chose instead to make a mockery of the election itself by presenting candidates that are, quite frankly, a joke. The libertarian candidate for governor in Ohio dressed up in a chicken suit and harrassed people and press attending the official debate between the republican and democrat candidate. Might as well run Raymer. Its a step up in my opinion.

Yeah. Unfortunately, I just read the article: that dangerous narcissist scumbag he's thinking of running with is a complete disgrace. How anyone in the party would give that *********** slimeball the time of day is beyond me. How did they get from Harry Browne and Carla Howell to chicken suits and power-mad bookies in such a short time? Oh well. I guess Ayn Rand was right after all. Lately I've been working with libertarians trying to infiltrate the Republican party. I don't imagine they'll make much headway against the crony-capitalist war pigs, but at least they might have a shot at keeping the agenda from being dominated by evangelicals. If any of you libertarian-types want a real eye-opener, compare the Republican party platform of 1964 with the halfwit garbage they're foisting on us today. Bleagh, makes me want to puke, it really does.

2008: Greg Raymer shocks the world by winning presidential election as a 3rd party candidate. 2009: War in Iraq comes to an immediate end when the $1 Trillion annual expenditure is diverted in an emergency funding bill to the White House kitchen budget.
