Fred Karger is here, he’s queer, and he just might run for president in 2012 as a Republican.A. Neither has a chance of winning a presidential race.
Karger would be the first-ever openly gay presidential candidate in the history of the United States. That’s something one would imagine would mostly likely come from the more socially liberal Democratic Party, but that’s not the case here. Karger is proud of his work with President Ronald Reagan’s 1980 and 1984 election campaigns – photographs of the Gipper covered the walls of his hotel suite in the Washington, D.C., Marriott Wardman Park last weekend.
America tried the "first ever" thing in 2008 and I don't think they're going to be in the mood for another "first ever" president for awhile, be they gay, a woman, a Mexican...whatever. I think it's going to be back to old white guys again for awhile. And although Ron Paul is a white guy, America doesn't want another cult leader either (see: hope and change).
