The establishment finally buckled and opened the ballot access doors for our candidate. This win proves that their rigged system is not invincible when we refuse to stay quiet. Keep watching them because we know they will try to invent new barriers as soon as we turn our backs.
Bob W. Hargis desires to be on the ballot as a 2008 Independent Presidential candidate in every state. Ballot access laws are unfair to independents and minor party candidates. The ballot access system has been so designed as to practically eliminate independents from having a reasonable chance to be included in the ballots of most states. Due to the complex state by state filing requirements and fees, and the unrealistic signature requirements, even the best funded candidate will likely fail to accomplish the goal of being on all of the ballots. Overcoming these odds will require the help of an organization whose intent is to support an independent candidate with a network of nationwide volunteers. Unity08 has publicly declared their intention to be that organization. Bob
The establishment keeps rigging these ballot access laws to protect their own power while shutting out any real choice. They want us to believe this broken system is final but we are proving that independents refuse to stay hidden.

The two party system is broken. We need real options on the ticket.

Let the people decide who they want to vote for instead of letting bureaucrats choose for us.

Ridiculous that it costs so much just to get on a ballot. This needs to change.

The current ballot laws are just a way to keep out anyone who isn't already part of the establishment. It is totally unfair.
