As part of our series “Let’s run YouTube video on the blog featuring the Project White House candidates”, here’s a clip from Kip Dean, who explains why he’s running for president, filmed at the Borderland Brewing/Project White House beer summit.
This article appears in Feb 9-15, 2012.

Here is my post from The New York Times early this a.m. in response to an op-ed by Paul Krugman
The country is stressed. Supermarket shoppers get to the meat case, the beef under glass and tell the butcher they’re window shopping.
Hemp is a plant. Thomas Jefferson smuggled hemp seeds from France when he was ambassador, so we could grow the plant to make cloth for sails and rope, known by sailors to this day as a hemp line.
Were all the cloth worn by our police made from American grown hemp, and all the plastic trim on cars, like the Mercedes SL series, made from American grown hemp, and all the paper used by governments from that same plant, we’d be developing manufacturing methods to trap the extra billion pounds of Co2 we pump into the atmosphere.
Save the planet. “Mother nature is the prime preemptor, don’t temp(t) her.”
Which leads to (gasp) the killer weed: mare edge a wanna. It’s time to dispense with false morality and dispense the plant for medicinal values in clue ding use for mild stress, anxiety relief, also fa great sleeping agent, besides the enhancement of procreative activities hardly talked about.
50,000 Dagwood Sandwich hemp shops nationwide with ten workers each is a half million jobs just in the retail. Also the reason to start easing hundreds of thousands of peaceful prisoners locked up because they were caught in possession of one of Mother Nature’s miracles. Ma Nature’s good.
I’m a candidate for president. Do I smoke dope? I smoke every dope within earshot. Stupid people burn up whenever i talk.
I speak i win

Kip is really Chris Matthews without the bombast.
I love his show “Softball.”
