Add to the growing list of candidates considering a bid for the GOP presidential nomination in 2012 America’s most famous white-power advocate: David Duke.
The Constitution only has 3 requirements for a President:
1. No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President;
2. neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years
3. and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
Those are the minimum requirements to hold office - "natural born citizen" (whatever the fuck that means - the Founding Fathers never bothered to define it) or immortal vampire zombie who came over from England in time to become a citizen (so Cheney would be covered), have to be at least 35 years old and have to have lived in the country for the last 14 years (why 14? Why not 14?)
That's it - being a convicted felon might hurt your chances for getting elected, but it doesn't prevent you from running for office.
Well, he does have a fundamentalist understanding of states rights, god approved slavery, the sorts of things that heighten levels of hatred and lead to violence, like civil disorder, civil wars, that sort of thing vox

So he'll form a PAC, fleece the rubes, and then drop out.
