James Prattas

 

Not many presidential candidates would consider appearing in their official photo wearing a plain old white t-shirt, but James Prattas doesn't care about superficial details.

"I personally don't care if you are a fellow Republican, Democrat, Reform, Libertarian, Green, Socialist, Communist or whatever! What concerns me is whether you are: FOR the United States of America, and that you understand and know our faith in God, our Declaration of Independence, our Constitution and our Bill of Rights, or AGAINST these truths that we cherish and hold to be self-evident to this day."

Prattas, the son of Greek immigrants, is a disabled Vietnam veteran, an artist, and a pretty sharp guy for someone who never finished high school.

"I am not rich, famous, nor a member of any elitist groups, clubs or organizations. I am uneducated and ignorant compared to most of my fellow citizens...I never graduated from Broadripple High School in Indianapolis, Indiana, the home of Dave Letterman and his first jokes. I did not graduate from Dominican College in Marin county, California because the Veterans Administration canceled my art program claiming Art has no Value in America and I owe them money. I do not spell well nor write well and yet I will do my best to be simple and clear..."

What James Prattas lacks in education, he makes up for with disarming simplicity and clarity. Here's the full text of his views on gay and lesbian issues:

"I have gay relatives and I understand."

If James Prattas was our next President, it would be a little like letting the guy who runs the corner store take a shot at running the country - but at least we could trust him to do the job with our best interests at heart.
