I would love to be president. I just concluded I was not the best person to carry forward the Republican torch.

I'm not a Republican.

If elected, I would not be the mere president of a party - I would endeavor to act independent of party domination and should feel bound to administer the government untrammeled by party schemes.

I'm very much engaged in the political battles. But I'm doing it as a supporter of Republicans... rather than as an active candidate.

Actually, I'm a Republican.

The extent of my political involvement is that I'm a registered voter - Republican.

I hope that by just being a competent member and expressing informed views on issues that aren't related to issues of LGBT equality, Republicans see me as a general asset.
