I only wish that the race for governor in California had a candidate as interesting as Jimmy McMillan. Jimmy McMillan is running for governor of the state of New York on behalf of “The Rent is too Damn High” party.
That isn’t a typo, that is actually what Jimmy McMillan named his party. During the NY candidate debate he promoted his party's platform of lower rent and also hinted at possible karate skills. Check out the video above. The world needs more politicians like Jimmy McMillan.
