John Bolton For President

Every field as one candidate who is delusional enough to think he can be president. 2008 had Rudy Giuliani representing the Republicans and Dennis Kucinich for the Democrats. Giuliani goes around in drag and Kucinich as seen UFOs. It doesn't help that both men could play hobbets in the Lord of the Rings series.

An early contender for candidate with no hope for winning is John Bolton. He hinted to The Daily Caller that he might run.


“[I]t is a very great honor that anybody would even think of asking. I’m obviously not a politician. I’ve never run for any federal elective office at all and, you know, it is something that would obviously require a great deal of effort,” he said. “What I do think, though, and what concerns me, is the lack of focus generally in the national debate about national security issues. Now, I understand the economy is in a ditch and people are concerned about it, but our adversaries overseas are not going to wait for us to get our economic house in order.”

When pressed as to whether that means he would consider a run, Bolton seemed to suggest that he might do it, at the very least to help put national security issues at the top of the debate agenda.

“In the sense that I want to make sure that not only in the Republican Party, but in the body politic as a whole, people are aware of threats that remain to the United States. You know, as somebody who writes op-eds and appears on the television, I appreciate as well as anybody that…there is a limit to what that accomplishes,” he said. “Whereas, some governor from some state in the middle of the country announces for president they get enormous coverage even if their views are utterly uninformed on major issues.”


Imagine this man as President.

John Bolton
