I want to be the candidate placed on the ballot by the people, not the party.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am a registered Democrat and two-time unsuccessful candidate for office.
I'll campaign for anyone who's honest and who I like, irrespective of the party.
I vote in every general election, but I'm not a party member or an ideologue. I've never told anyone who I've voted for.
What I would like to vote for is a candidate that is socially liberal, a fiscal conservative, broadly libertarian with a small 'l' but sensible and pragmatic and with a chance of winning. That's more or less the empty set.
I will not campaign for any party.
You're not going to get a chance to vote for me on the ballot, but you can actually vote for what I believe in.
I like candidates who tell me something that is going to make a difference to me.
I haven't got the slightest idea how to change people, but still I keep a long list of prospective candidates just in case I should ever figure it out.
I am running for re-election no matter who runs.
In no case can I permit myself to be a candidate of any party or yield myself to any party schemes.
