My Fellow Americans,

I would like to put yet another Internet rumor to rest by saying that I am in fact running for President of the United States. This is not a "PR stunt" or a "joke", and I am not simply "pretending to run to politically rouse my demographic". Nor am I running under the character name of Captain Spaulding. I, Sid Haig, am running for President. That is a fact.

I have stated in the past that my hopes of winning are slim at best, but the only way we the people can send a message to Washington DC is for me to get at least 1% of the vote, not to be taken as a "joke". Treating this country as a joke is what got us where we are in the first place, isn't it? It's time to stop that.

We can do this, if you all register to vote and then write my name in as your choice for President. It's very simple. Just write it in. That's it.

An overwhelming number of you have said that you agree with my position on taxes, health care, immigration and all the rest of the many things that we find wrong with the way the current administration is handling things, and I appreciate that. But to take that fire and snuff it by just laughing it off is counterproductive and will change nothing for any of us Americans.

If any of you really agree and "would vote for me if I was really running", then now's your chance to make your voice heard, because this is 100% real.

I hope this clears up any misconceptions about my campaign.

Vote Sid Haig in 08'.

- Sid

In this speech, Sid gets tough with politics. Included are his viewpoints on immigration, earmarks, the economy, marijuana, the war, and global warming and more.

  • I am very glad that there is finally a celebrity making a strong stand as an American and reinforcing what the country really was intended to be. Thank you MR. HAIG for having a voice and not being a government pet.

  • @Halciett only because many many many powerful powerful rich people threw thier hands up in the air and folded their arms and said, we arent going to help obama. and then they pulled their money out of the country and then bush gave them some bail out money on top of it.
