We on the Wilderside have a commitment to voter choice and grassroots democracy. That commitment manifests as support of ballot access; supporting third party, independent and outsider candidates; and believing in the need for write-ins and “none of the above” as choices on the ballot. The People’s President Page reflects these commitments. Our candidate list includes candidates who are being considered, drafted, or discussed for U.S. President 2008.

For an extensive, though more “disciplined” list, we might recommend going to www.politics1.com. In fact, we would like to thank Politics1 for its dedication to giving citizens good, political information, and because our initial research on presidential candidates comes largely from Politics1. There is another important list of candidates at the Federal Elections Committee web-site. Though, realize that not all of the independent and write-in candidates have to be registered there.

    There are a lot of libertarians listed but not their websites. The best strategy is for the libertarians to nominate a libertarian/green ticket & greens endorse it.

    From Kimberly Wilder, editor of Prez page:

    Dear Robert,

    Thanks for dropping by the web-site.

    This site is done on a volunteer basis, between me doing my full time job. I listed web-sites rather sporadically, somewhat based on my interest, then what was handy, thinking I would get back to fill in sooner.

    The place I got my research made it difficult for me to harvest web-sites. But, I mean to get to it when I have a chance.

    You or anyone else may send me a list of links for a set of candidates and I will put them up as soon as possible.

    Thanks,
    Kimberly Wilder

    My name is Frank McEnulty and I am running as an independent candidate for President of the United States in 2008. Crazy right? Well maybe, but I am just way too fed up with how the two major parties are running (or should I say ruining) politics in this country and I feel the need to try and do something about it.

    Please visit my website at http://www.frankforpresident.org

    I’ve noticed over the past several years that most of the political ads are pushing a party, rather than ideas or an individual. “Vote for me, I’m a Republican” or “Vote for me, I’m a Democrat” is all one seems to hear any more. What do these people stand for? Nothing until the party tells them to or else they get cut off from the fountain of money.

    Do these candidates have independent thoughts? Maybe, but they never voice them in public because it might not be in line with party doctrine.

    Do they ever vote for a bill, law or policy because it is the right thing to do for the country? Only if the party tells them it is okay to do so.

    Usually, if a Republican introduces a piece of legislation it must be wrong per the Democrats because the Democrats didn’t come up with it.

    Usually, if a Democrat introduces a piece of legislation it must be wrong per the Republicans because the Republicans didn’t come up with it.

    What’s wrong with just working together to do what is right for the country regardless of what party you are affiliated with?

    If you’re as disillusioned with how the political process seems to be working as I am let’s get together and make them see how upset we are. None of us can do it by ourselves, but if enough of us band together we can and will make them sit up and take notice.

    Please visit my website and pass this email along to all your family members and friends, co-workers and everyone else you know.

    Together we will make a difference because:

    “ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE IN AMERICA”

    Sincerely,

    Frank McEnulty
    Presidential Candidate

    WOW! Thanks for adding my name here. I didn’t know I was in here untill I did a search on myself to see how much I was on the internet. Well, where to start, I live in Henderson, Nevada. I’m part of the American Party. There is another American Party out there, but it has a few diffenent ideas. My party is registered with the FEC, so I guess you could say, my is the only offical party running in 2008. I would like to make President, but I don’t have a big chance. Only the Reb and Dem get FREE advertising. Other parties are never heard of, Yeah know what I mean? Really bothers me about that. Anyway. Thanks again for what your doing here. I wish m ore Americans got involved with 2008. I feel this year is more important then any past elections of the last 20 years. America is being torn apart, little by little. It’s time for a giant change.
    Thanks again

    Speech for the Mayor
    Council Meeting of
    October 3rd 2007

    An interesting article in the Cecil Whig, September 14th edition,
    entitled, Gilchrest on Board with Aid for Local Mass Transit Fix.
    pointed out that Cecil County is the missing link in passenger rail
    service between New York City and Washington, D.C. In the same piece,
    Senator Pipkin, of the #36 District, stated that we need to renovate
    the old train station.

    Everyone who is fortunate enough to live in Cecil County will know how
    hard the honorable Mayor Fisona has worked to make sure we will once
    again have passenger train service here in the town of Elkton. Anyone
    who has followed local politics for any length of time at all
    understands county civic leaders have wanted to restart commuter trains
    to Elkton for several years now and the main stumbling block is always
    a lack of capital. Another hindrance is also the ramshackle condition
    of the train station on Bow Street, which would have to be completely
    remodeled. Also, another imperative is to secure Federal funds to
    start the undertaking.

    As I understand it, the Elkton train station closed it’s doors sometime
    in 1962 and has been allowed to fall into ruin ever since then. This
    shouldn’t have happened in the first place, but, what has been done
    cannot easily be undone. Note the phrase, easily undone. This can be
    corrected if enough time and money were to be invested in a renovation
    project. In the article, mentioned before, Gilchrest promised he would
    do his best to secure the needed federal funds. It’s up to voters to
    see to it that he keeps his word by writing him often to remind him of
    what he said he would do in regards to helping to bring the train back
    to Elkton. In those letters it should most likely be stressed how much
    a man in his position could do to help bring this about because of his
    rank and social standing. It would also be wise if the authors were to
    stress in the body of the composition how bringing the train back to
    Elkton would be for civic good and could raise the quality of life in
    Cecil County.

    It also seems most reasonable, to me, that if we expect to get federal
    funding to bring passenger rail service back to Elkton again we need to
    explain in as logical and rational format as is possible, within a
    reasonable time frame without becoming boring or bothersome, how doing
    so would garner vast revenue to fill the public coffers. At this
    point, someone should point out how poverty-stricken Cecil County is
    and how we must have passenger rail service back again to draw people
    here to expand our tax base. In the same edition, the Whig ran another
    article claiming the county just recently topped the 100,000 residents
    mark. An argument favoring returning train service could be made thus:
    Cecil County remains poverty-stricken and isolated despite the fact
    that we now have more than 100,000 people living here. The agent
    making said proposal could add: with all of these people we should have
    train service restored to the city of Elkton so that they may be
    gainfully employed.

    A wise point designed to garner support for the proposal might be Cecil
    County has often been called Maryland’s forgotten county or the
    forgotten corner of Maryland; sadly, tis surely so, but, this is most
    assuredly a result of our lack of proper public transportation in the
    region. Give us the funds we need now to start a functional regional
    commuter rail service that will move people from place to place and it
    will pay for itself rapidly by expanding our tax base. Every economist
    knows there are periods of growth and periods of stagnation and, one
    usually follows the other as night follows day. Cecil County has
    languished in a state of decay since commuter trains stopped servicing
    the area, so it seems the solution would be to restore the railroad to
    this area pronto to reverse the situation. It is the task of those of
    you who have power to convince those who have money to give us the
    funds we need to bring the railroad back to Cecil County once more.

    Jack Grimes’ Statement of Candidacy

    It is my intention to run for President in the election to be held in November 2008, because I believe we need more political movements in this country which should be every spectrum of the rainbow. I see not only a need for new grass roots movements in this country, but also, for the average man to step into the political arena and take an active role in government.

    A Fascist candidate for President will shake up the driftwood and cause a few minds to get busy. We must break the two-party monopoly in conventional politics in this country if we are to preserve the American people’s Freedom of Choice. We must create new political movements that the masses can polarize around if we are to keep the general public interested in politics, of those, surely one can be Fascist.

    We must end the reign of terror of the capitalist elite, which has driven the middle-class to the brink of extinction and holds the poor down to a loathsome level where they are no better than medieval serfs. Corporate Statism, an economic system under which government and corporate interests cooperate with each other for the betterment and general welfare of the nation, whereby government makes a profit for the people instead of exploiting them is the perfect antidote to capitalism.

    To correct the flaws in modern society the United Fascist Union recommends: Halting the monopolies on utilities; imposing a strict censorship on the press; halting urban sprawl; and enacting rules of public conduct which police would rigidly enforce.

    VOTE FASCIST 2008!! ELECT JACK GRIMES PRESIDENT!!

    What do you think of the following statement from a 2008 Presidential Candidate?

    “The federal government has proven itself untrustworthy with environmental policy by facilitating polluters, subsidizing logging in the National Forests, and instituting one-size-fits-all approaches that too often discriminate against those they are intended to help.

    The key to sound environmental policy is respect for private property rights. The strict enforcement of property rights corrects environmental wrongs while increasing the cost of polluting.

    In a free market, no one is allowed to pollute his neighbor’s land, air, or water. If your property is being damaged, you have every right to sue the polluter, and government should protect that right. After paying damages, the polluter’s production and sale costs rise, making it unprofitable to continue doing business the same way. Currently, preemptive regulations and pay-to-pollute schemes favor those wealthy enough to perform the regulatory tap dance, while those who own the polluted land rarely receive a quick or just resolution to their problems.

    In Congress, I have followed a constitutional approach to environmental action:

    I consistently vote against using tax dollars to subsidize logging in National Forests.
    I am a co-sponsor of legislation designed to encourage the development of alternative and sustainable energy. H.R. 550 extends the investment tax credit to solar energy property and qualified fuel cell property, and H.R. 1772 provides tax credits for the installation of wind energy property.
    Taxpayers for Common Sense named me a “Treasury Guardian” for my work against environmentally-harmful government spending and corporate welfare.
    I am a member of the Congressional Green Scissors Coalition, a bipartisan caucus devoted to ending taxpayer subsidies of projects that harm the environment for the benefit of special interests.

    Individuals, businesses, localities, and states must be free to negotiate environmental standards. Those who depend on the land for their health and livelihood have the greatest incentive to be responsible stewards.”
