"Hello, my name is Nick Pierotti, and I'm running for President of the United States. I'm going to fight Wall Street and I'm going to end the Wars and bring our brave sons and daughters home, so that they don't have to keep dying for Wall Street and for big Oil. I'll take that money that we're spending on these Wars, and take the money that we're bailing out Wall Street with, and I'll use it to rebuild the infrastructure of this great country. Use it to give jobs to the working people of America. We'll rebuild this country- together." I'm running as an independent candidate for President of the United States. Wall Street criminals have ruled over this country for too long. They own both houses of Congress. They own both Political parties. Obama dangles from their puppet strings. Isn't it time to put a man of the People back into the White House? A man who will take War dollars, and money that Congress and Obama currently funnel into Wall Street bailouts and War, and redirect that money into jobs for the Working People of America, rebuilding the infrastructure of this country, and making of our nation the Shining City on a Hill we were meant to be, instead of the slave state of the corporate multinationals. I'll NEVER bail out Wall Street. Competition is built into the nature of Capitalism. Those who support and back a capitalist system must support and back the consequences. Capitalist performance is Darwinian. If you cannot perform, you must be allowed to go under. We should never pour money into large financial organizations whose performance has been proven to be inadequate; organizations built upon the labor of exploited working people. You don’t perform? That is the breaks of the game. We do not reward failure. Wouldn't you like a President who isn't bought and paid for? Wouldn't you like a President who speaks for you? A President who speaks for the Working People of America. Who does not follow the orders of the rich and the corporations who have the money to buy their own mouthpieces to broadcast their vested interests... That President is Me. Make me your President, and I will speak for YOU. Nobody pulls my strings. I am running for President as the head of a new third party that stands for the People, unlike the bought-and-paid-for Republicans and Democrats, who answer only to Wall Street and the rich. This party will break the gridlock in Congress. I want to fill the Congress with factory workers and farmers, line cooks and laborers; people who carry a lunch box to work, and who work two jobs to make ends meet. People like myself, who know what it is to live paycheck to paycheck. Experience? My experience is of over 50 years of working and striving and solving problems, of making things happen. I am a single father who has home-schooled and raised a daughter for over 15 years, and she is brilliant. I am not a lawyer, but I have been studying the Constitution, and reading the Law now for years... like another man you may have heard of... his name was Abraham Lincoln. In my lifetime I have watched many folk rise and attain the very office I am seeking. Some had a Vision. I too have a Vision. I was raised to know right from wrong by working parents. I am an accomplished musician. I have debated in the streets and in the cafes of our great Nation. I have fought against wrong, and have championed the good and the right and the beautiful. I do not wear false patriotism on my sleeve, and I do not seek to debase or to oppress my fellow citizens. If I think that my neighbor is wrong about a belief, I will reach out, I will tug their sleeve, I will seek to have a dialogue and try to make them see the world through my own eyes. I see the potential of our Country, of our Planet. I think like a Planet. I see the suffering. I believe that none of us should suffer, neither the least of us, nor the most exalted. So I am standing up here, in my own town, where I live and do business with my fellow citizens, and I am throwing my hat up into the free and flowing breeze of a mighty and great country, and saying, as all of us should say - "Why not ME?" I will be asking for your support and for your votes in coming days and weeks, as an American who is ready to work for and exalt America to the great heights to which we all always have and should aspire. Help me. And I will help you. It is in the nature of every good citizen to do so. I am that citizen. As common as the rest of you. As great as the rest of you.
