Randall Blythe for President!

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet, but Randall Blythe (the vocalist of the metal band Lamb of God) is running for President in 2012. He has an ad campaign going on at the moment for anyone who wants to check it out. Obviously there's no way he's going to win, but the entire metal community will probably consider voting for him (and if he won I'd give him props, that'd be amazing). I personally am not interested in politics that much, especially since I personally believe the whole system to be corrupt and set up (at least for the elections), but my vote will go to Mr. Blythe without a doubt at the end of the year. I don't usually vote but now I have a reason to (if you can't tell, Lamb of God is one of my favorite bands and Blythe's regime makes so much sense to me).

Also, this is my first thread since I just had 20 posts, so I hope this is a worthy contribution!

No. vote for me for President. Randall and I both have about the same chances......waste your vote...vote for me

"My first act as President of the United States will to be shot. That’s right, SHOT. With a high-powered assault rifle. Immediately after taking the oath of office, I will be escorted about twenty yards away and be shot publicly in a non-lethal area of my body by a highly trained Navy SEAL sniper. It will hurt like f—. Why would I do this? Because I will now be commander-in-chief of the armed forces. This means that during my term I will probably have to make some tough decisions affecting the survival of other men. And as commander-in-chief, I shouldn’t expect anyone in our military to do anything I’m not willing to do myself. That includes getting shot. Me being shot will be broadcast live world-wide via satellite, with no bleeping out of the incredible string of curse words I will undoubtably let fly with. I will be required to walk/limp/crawl on my own power a minimum of 50 yards through the mud to an ambulance that will take me away to patch me up. If I can’t make it on my own, I’m not tough enough to be your President. After all the nations in the entire world witness America’s new President, an insane looking heavily tattooed freak, getting shot ON HIS OWN ORDER as soon as he takes office, then crawling all bloody to an ambulance, cussing the whole way and screaming pure hate in a monstrous voice tortured by years of touring and Marlboro Reds, they will think twice before f—ing with us. I can promise you that."

I'd certainly vote for him.

Hahahaha if you read his entire announcement it's hilarious, but I love it. People won't take him seriously but I agree that we seriously need a person like him.

Blythe's political manifesto: Randonesia--- The Buck Stops Here... is an interesting and fascinating read. I like Blythe's idea of "Grinch economics." He can't be worse, than what we have at the present moment.

I'm torn between Blythe and Obama, and if I had the choice between the two.... my presidential vote would go for Blythe.


Cheers,

Is it possible for him to actually be in the ballots?
