Local Running for President — Again

By Antonio D. French

Filed Monday, June 25, 2007 at 12:28 PM

"Crack-smoking Republicans" beware. A local entrepreneur is tossing his hat in the Presidential primaries once again. But this time, ex-Republican Blake Ashby is targeting his own.

Ashby, the owner of such hip spots as the Delmar Restaurant and Lounge and Mangia (co-owner) who ran for President in 2004, is now running as an independent. He says he's been a Republican since high school, but the W years have taken his party in a direction he cannot follow. Instead, he's calling on fellow frustrated fiscal conservatives to rebel against the "crackheads" he says are ruining the once Grand Ol' Party.



PubDef produced this video for Ashby and will be following his campaign over the next year as he takes his message across America.

To learn how to help Ashby rid the nation of "Crack-smoking Republicans", contact campaign coordinator Mandy Kadlec.

That's awesome! I couldn't stop laughing at the crack-smoking republicans line. I too hope he does well. It's so refreshing to see someone address facts and issues instead of image.
