She hasn't officially registered yet, but it sounds like there's a good chance she might.
She's smart, well-rounded, deeply passionate about the environment, involved in women's issues, speaks 4 or 5 languages and I think she'd make an excellent president.
Did I mention she's only 8 years old?
Help me draft Lisa Simpson for President.
Just in case you're really wondering what's going on, I'm taking the week off from my Rescue Ranger duties to head down to D.C. for the week as a fellow in the New Organizing Institutes Summer Campaign Boot Camp. There's 60 of us here from all over the country who are learning all about the online side of progressive political campaigns. We're being by taught by the masters from MoveOn, Blue State Digital, MyDD, the Clinton, Edwards and Obama Campaigns, and that's just to name a few.
After 8-9 hours a day learning, we've been instructed to design a presidential campaign for a Simpsons Show character. Doing all this from scratch, the group that receives the most people to enter their email accounts on our campaign website win. We're up against 7 other groups, and it's going to be a fierce battle.
I feel confident that this incredible community of progressive Kossacks will vote for the Intelligent Choice and Draft Lisa Simpson for President.
Besides, what other candidate gives you a chance to hear from Milhouse Van Houten?
She might be a little too young to run, but Lisa Simpson is my ticket to the top!
p.s. You can also add Lisa as your Friend on Facebook, or you can join the Lisa Simpson for President Facebook Group!
