Candidate: John's Secret Identity
Official campaign web site: http://johnssecretcampaign.blogspot.com/
As an independent write-in candidate I humbly submit my own campaign for inclusion in your list of 2008 candidates.
I am running a no-contribution volunteer-only campaign to hopefully remain under the FEC's radar. I am not asking anyone to change their vote from any other candidate to me, but rather to vote for me if they weren't planning to vote for anyone else. I'm hoping to make my mark on history by getting at least a few more people out to the polls that would have turned out otherwise, and maybe they'll participate in future elections. I'm not adding myself to the page. I'll leave that decision to yuo fine folks. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.171.70.88 (talk) 21:02, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Ron Paul appears twice
Ron Paul appears twice, not sure hot to correct —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.81.109.240 (talk) 00:09, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- Quite right -- he shouldn't even appear once, per this. -David Schaich Talk/Cont 01:26, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
I declare my candidacy
I posted my candidacy for the President of the United States on the presidential candidates of 2008 page and it was deleted. I am Walter H. Ring 3rd of Richmond, VA, an Independent White Racial Nationalist candidate for the office of President of the United States. I declared my candidacy on May 15, 2008, running as a write-in. On May 16, 2008, Owen B. Crump of Powhatan, VA, also an Independent White Racial Nationalist, declared his candidacy for the office of Vice President of the United States. He is running as a write-in candidate as well. I contacted the Richmond, VA office of the Secret Service to request protection as a presidential candidate. I also contacted the Richmond Times-Dispatch, the Richmond, VA daily newspaper to announce my candidacy, as well as post my candidacy on several White Nationalist forums. My candidacy and the candidacy of Owen Crump's are both legitimate. We will not accept any donations of any kind for running for office. We feel that people need to keep their money because giving it to us solves nothing. We are not going to campaign because we do not have the time, the money or the inclination to do this-we both have regular jobs and I financially support a family singlehandedly. Although we feel absolutely none of the candidates for president or vice-president are worth voting for, the most important thing about our candidacy for president and vice president is the fact we are running against and opposing the first serious possible nonwhite candidate for president. If a nonwhite becomes president, it is the absolute beginning of the end for America and the White race here. No nation, with the possible exception of Japan, has retained First World status with a nonwhite leader in power. Anyone wanting to debate my candidacy or this entry is welcome to do so-all I ask is that you do not vandalize this entry. Thank you.

Boston Tea Party
Can someone please add the Boston Tea Party nominees (Charels Jay (President) & Thomas L. Knapp (VP)) to this article?
Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Qoholeth (talk • contribs) 22:43, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
A map
It would be cool to include a map with the states where these candidates are on the ballot. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.212.2.86 (talk) 19:27, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
Different wording in Firefox 3 vs. IE7
View this page, specifically the "Boston Tea Party" section, in Firefox vs. IE. The words "Former cock sucker and dick licker of Florida" only appear in the Firefox version, and I can't seem to edit it -- edit only shows the IE wording which doesn't have the obvious vandalism. Can someone with better edit-fu fix this? Midnightcoffee (talk) 02:57, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
