I'm still here and I'm running for Governor of Texas

Yes really.

(you are now thinking: what the heck! There's no way he can win)

Well of course not, but that's not the point. The point is that I'm bored and I need to do something offbeat and wacky.

As I posted to the official Chris Brown for governor facebook group there are several goals for my campaign:

Step 1: getting on the ballot.

Not 100% certain of the process yet but I know it involves filing some paperwork and making then either getting a few thousand signatures or paying a fairly hefty filing fee. We'll be exploring ways to come up with needed funding if there is a fee or a game plan for signatures. The good news is we've got a year before we can even file.

Step 2: get on a major market or national newscast and say something wacky. (Maybe this should be the ultimate goal)

Step 3: Get at least 20,000 thousand votes. That's a bit arbitrary though ... I guess I could set a loftier goal of 1% (which I think would be something like 80 - 90k depending on voter turnout)


(now you're thinking: okay that makes sense but what would you stand for?)

Good question. Smaller government and lower taxes as a result. Fewer stupid laws, more common sense. Of course that's what the Anti-Blog stands for anyway. So if you want specifics read the whole deal.

I'll probably setup an official site later on with better categorization.

"set up" is two words... I assume this is a response to the anti-blog's stance on fewer stupid grammar rules and more common sense language.
