Pastor Terry Jones, the man who infamously burned a copy of the Quran in honor of 9/11, is throwing his hat into the 2012 presidential race.
The pastor announced his presidential bid Wednesday morning.
His campaign, Stand Up America Now, released a statement that features a seven point platform, including deporting all “illegals”, bringing all military back on American soil until America’s finances are in order and reducing corporate taxes.
“Please financially support us as we continue our stand against radical Islam,” the release states.
In September of 2010, President Obama urged Jones to call off the "Burn a Quran" day, warning that the "stunt" could pose a threat to Americans.
After meetings with government officials, Jones agreed to call of the burning, but he ultimately went back on his word and went through with it in March.
Supporters are asked to make a monthly donation to his campaign.

Whatever your thoughts are on Terry Jones, we have NEVER had a TRUE right wing ideology in the political mix here in the America, and this seems like a first step.
I wonder if this guy could get some sort of affiliation with Geert. Maybe we can get a 'Party for Freedom' in America.
I am celebrating this. :dance: :dance:

BTW, I like his slogan. I just broke my favorite coffee mug, and I could always get a new cap. What do you think??

Theoretically he can be better than even Cain2012. :laugh:

I really WISH we could get someone to run that was that right wing who actually could get elected.

I too am appreciative of the slogan and stance.
But does he stand a cat in hells chance of even being noticed?
I'm guessing no.
