Three Years Later
For many people, Valentine’s Day means love, chocolate, and flowers. For some it means heartache, loneliness, and massacre. For me, it marks the birth of this blog and my decision to run for President of the United States. What started out as a skiing trip to New Hampshire ended up being a life-changing experience.
Although I did not win the election in 2008 (I had somewhere between 7 and 25,000,000 votes depending on who you ask), the foundation has been set for the 2012 election. The 2008 campaign technically wasn’t penniless because I had to spend $.60 for copies of a campaign poster at a library because my printer had broken.)
I have been campaigning in the United States, Canada, and Europe for the 2012 election. The campaign has gained many supporters over the last three years. Some of the reasons include:
- Discussing the issues no other candidate will touch – While the other candidates were discussing health care, the economy, and other issues that don’t affect many people, I have been the only candidate bringing attention to the tainting of America’s greatest export – the American entertainment industry.
- Trend setting – Although I was one of the last candidates to announce my candidacy for President in 2008, I was the first to campaign outside the United States and the first to suggest multiple sources of energy in one energy plan.
- I’m just a nice guy – Many of the other candidates have been in politics for years. I have never held office of any kind (except for a brief stint of being president of the local “Hello Kitty” Meetup group.)
There are less than 21 months until the election. There is a lot of things I need to do to get visibility while maintaining my “Penniless Campaign”. Since I won’t be spending any money on ads or marketing goodies like pens, yard signs, or blow-up dolls, visibility will not be easy. Congressman Ron Paul wan the straw poll at CPAC this weekend, and even he is not getting credit deserved by Fox News.
The challenge I set for is simple: Bring two friends (and one enemy) to this website and tell them to bring two friends (and one enemy.) If everybody does this, then over 200,000,000 people will be here in 28 days. If you want a different America, then elect a different candidate. Ahmnodt Heare for America. Ahmnodt Heare for You.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
If you need publicity, I sell ad spots for $10 dollars per 30 days. Sorry, I have to feed my growing stomach somehow.
I understand if you can’t afford a spot because of your stomach problems also.
I might by ad space for “Formulated Randomness“but my “penniless campaign pledge prevents me from spending money on this weblog. If you want to take the money out of politics, you should vote for the candidate is is not putting money into politics. 🙂
Holy crap..YOU GOT SEVEN VOTES..Who was it??
Four neighbors, two people who were reading the blog back then, and somebody in Colorado. There was a rumor I actually won Saguache County in Colorado but I haven’t been able to confirm it.
halfway between 6 & 50,000,000 is 12499997 votes. ell done Ahmnodt. Happy Blogovalentineversary
4 is the people I actually know
2,760 is my share of the write-in votes which the candidate was not named in official results.
50,000,000 is the CIA estimate. They still brief me daily and have Barack Obama as the fall guy. I can’t run my platform through President Obama because people will figure things out.
I’d spend the money on blow up dolls. They will reach that important college age demographic who can’t afford hookers.
That’s how I spent my money. 🙂
If it were not for your tireless campaign efforts I would never have been aware of the Cinemafia.
My delicate snowflake of a daughter could be hooked on meth and Robert Rodriguez flicks if not for your influence.
Finally, a reason to celebrate Valentine’s Day.
Bless Mr. Soon-To-Be-President. Bless you.
Thank you for your continued support, Rachael. As a father of a young impressionable daughter, I try to make sure only good things get to make impressions on children.
