I think I need to get a higher profile.

On a lot of the blogs I visit (admittedly, they are mostly conservative in nature, or more accurately non-liberal) the general consensus seems to be that we need a leader of this country with the mantra America First.

Like me.

A leader who won’t let illegal immigrants of any stripe “work” their way towards citizenship.

Like me.

A leader who will make sure that the interests of the United States are first and foremost when any kind of discussions are held.

Like me.

A leader who cannot be connected to any Big industry due to not having a controlling interest in any of the Big industries.

Like me.

A leader who understands what the working man is going through from the perspective of the working man, and not the working man’s boss.

Like me.

A leader with the backbone to do the right thing, and let the people assigned to doing the parts of the right thing actually do what they are trained to do, whether it is foreign policy or commanding troops on the ground.

Like me.

I believe that a leader should be like a good boss – put the people who work for you in the position they can best perform, and then get out of their way and let them do their job. Throwing money at a problem does no good at all, unless the money is allowed to perform as trained. Telling your investors you are going to do one thing and then not letting your money be invested as it should is a waste of money. Advertising something and then not honoring the advertisement is not good business.

Standing up for what you believe in is paramount when it comes to leading a country. Let the people of that country know what you believe in, show them that you stand up for that belief, and you will have the backing of that people.

I’m running a no-cost write-in campaign. I am not soliciting donations, I am not asking people to advertise for me. I am asking to help me spread the word that there is someone who can be written in for President who will not be a career politician, and will keep We The People as the primary focus.

Please, write in Cary Cartter for President in 2008. The career politicians need to know that the United States is tired of not being listened to.

Slight update – since I am a “write-in” candidate, I don’t need to formally file to appear on the ballots in each state. So, I won’t be doing that. Did I mention how much I love filling out government forms?

Thank you for stopping by, God bless you all, Wear Red on Fridays, and write inr Cary Cartter for President in 2008!

This over at Texas Fred’s is a good example for two things.

First, Hillary announcing her candidacy is kind of wasted breath – the history of the Clintons should come back and bite them on the rear.

Second, why I wanted Fred as my Press Secretary – he knows things. Since he likes to – uhm, do defensive things, he has instead requested the position of SecDef. I think that’s a good match.

So, I’ve asked Paul (prying1) to be my Press Sec instead.

Sues has graciously volunteered to be my campaign manager.

If anyone else wants to help get my name in front of the people who matter (hint – it’s the ones who vote, and not the ones who make a living from the political workings of the country), please feel free to mention me. Often.

I can’t promise you anything but a Common Sense Approach to running this country, by a citizen, instead of a career politician.

Go here.

Wearing red as a show of support is to let any veterans in the area know that you support THEM regardless of your take on the current military situation.

While you are in the mood to show support for veterans, go here and show some support for the Freedom Project. Tell Minuteman I sent you. He will be more than happy to stop by your town so you can meet him in person, once he gets on the road.

Don’t forget to mention to all who will listen – Write in Cary Cartter for President in 2008!

Well.

According to the FEC, once I declare myself a candidate for the office of President of the United States, I have to start tracking my expenditures. Once I reach $5,000.00 (USD) I have to start filing reports.

Guess what?

I’m not spending a dime.

And I don’t want anyone to spend a dime on my behalf, either.

I do want you to help me spread the word. My name will not appear on the primary or main election ballot unless it is written in. They all need to be written in exactly the same way: “Cary Cartter” (without the quotes).

If you are the author of a “free” blog, then please blog about me, tell everyone you know about me, and help me get the word out. If you pay for any aspect of your blog, then don’t blog about me – just tell everyone you meet to write me in.

But, Cary, aren’t you serious about running for President?

Yes, I am. But I am a working stiff, like 80% of the people in this nation. I can’t afford to spend millions of dollars on a campaign, since I have no funds of my own and I am not going to be indebted to any special interests. I intend to get this country back on track to being the leader of the free world, and I can’t do that if I have to give homage to Joe’s Bar and Grill every time I speak or consider legislation.

What do you really think your chances are?

A little better than a snowball’s in hell. If I even get enough mentions and a few papers report on the “crazy dude in Phoenix”, maybe I can get a politician to understand that We, the People, are fed up with the constant crap. Repesentatives should not be career politicians, they should serve the country out of duty and then go home. They should not be spending fifty+ years in the same seat handing sweetheart pork deals to the same network of good ol’ boys. They should serve, do what’s right for all the people, and step down. (Yes, I advocate term limits.) Someone like Strom Thurmond should never be allowed to rule for as long as he did. Common Sense should prevail, not Political Correctness.

If you have any questions about why I am doing this, or what my intentions are, just drop a line in the comments, or e-mail me: carycartter AT gmail DOT com. I will answer all inquiries here, and your question will be quoted. You will also be credited, and a link will be provided.

Remember, in 2008 vote for Cary Cartter.

I promise a common sense approach to running this country – and ONLY this country. I will not allow any other country, or even the loudest public opinion, to determine the course of action this country needs to take to regain the respect and admiration of the world. Heck, we are the strongest standing military – we will start acting like it again.

The phrase “Kick Butt and Take Names” will have substance once again.

No other country will even dream of trying to invade, either by military or civilian methods; they will be repulsed at the border.

In other news – I will need to file in each state, so that may take a few days. Watch your ballots carefully – I will be listed as Cary Cartter – Common Sense Independent.
