Gene McCarthy and John Anderson were both clients in Supreme Court cases. On their behalf we won cases that made it possible for future independent and third party candidates to compete for President. I make no apology for that; it was excellent work.

You misread the mention of Ross Perot. My work opened the legal doors for him, but I never represented him in any cases.

I thought Larry Craig was one of the “good guys” in Congress. I worked with him and his staff on the Balanced Budget Amendment to the US Constitution. I know now that Craig was a bum, but I make no apologies for the BBA. I only regret that Senator Reid cast the essential vote to kill that, when it came closest to success.

I am not about to “cleanse” my website. My history is what it was. Rather than obscure and lie about my career, I lay it all out there, and let the chips fall where they may. Others may play that game, but not me.

With John's announcement, I'm starting a John Armor for Congress Ping List.

Pinged here is everyone that has shown interest, on either this thread or John's last article, 'Stealing Delegates, Stealing Nominations.'

However, if you want to be on the ping list from here on out, please let me know here that you'd like to be added.

Thank you!

And just in case, lest anyone read my post to mean the ping list is only for those pinged to that particular post, it isn't. Everyone can (should) join.

Also, here's a clickable link to John's Youtube page:

My friend(in my best John McCain immitation), good luck with your campaign. Indeed, politics makes strange bedfellows. But, don’t take my comments personally-as MoDo said to B. Hussein Obama, “I’m just trying to toughen you up.”

Bravo!
In 2008, regardless of what happens nationally in the Presidential Election, I should be nominated for Congress in the 11th District of North Carolina in the primary on 6 May, and then be elected on 4 November. Why am I confident in 2008, when I got trounced in 2006? ...It is possible that some other Republican might file for Congress between now and then, but it looks like the list of candidates will close at three... Carl Mumpower has served six years as an Asheville City Councilman. He is a Doctor of Psychology. Spence Campbell is a 25-year Army veteran, who later worked in insurance. He has a Masters in Russian Area Studies. I won't say anything about either of these two men, or about any particular issues.

Best of luck in your run for Congress.

When you get there, bring your kazoo and play “Hail to the Chief” for John Kerry. (I still get a chuckle out of that anecdote.)
