JACKSON, MI -- An extensive article on Ted Nugent written by the Washington Post’s Steve Hendrix reveals the Motor City Madman is seriously considering a run for the White House in 2016.

The article, which explores Nugent’s political influence, quotes him as saying he’s thinking about a presidential run and even throws out a possible slogan:

“Hi, I’m Ted Nugent. I have nine children from seven women, and I’m running for president.”

1. Running on the "Absolutely F*cking Crazy" platform?

[KamaAina]

17. More likely his military record.

[busterbrown]

18. Vietnam hero!!!

Well maybe not...but those fake camouflage military outfits he wears are impressive>>>

[StevePaulson]

92. Has He Cleaned Up Since His Draft Board Interview?

Crapping in your pants for days on end doesn't really clean up. Like ever.

Of course this does over qualify him for becoming the Republican Nominee.

Republicans Are A Disease

[vanbean]

106. Not to mention his love of killing animals.

I used to work with a guy that was almost as big an a$$hole as Ted. He went on a guided hunt in Africa and met Ted as he was leaving, as Ted was going to hunt in the same location with the same guide. He said that Ted's initial greeting was, "Hey Blood Brother, what did ya kill!?" True story. Great Republican presidential material if you are in the business of manufacturing war materials.

[VanillaRhapsody]

21. Snow Snookie as his VP of Intelligence Running Mate!

[KamaAina]

23. "Snow Snooki" FTW!!

[Daemonaquila]

36. Oh please oh please!!!

I'd love to watch the debates and the infighting on that one. They'd be the first candidates with their own reality TV show, which would make Honey Boo Boo look functional.

[lark]

89. Great minds .....

I had those exact words in mind but saw you beat me to it. It would be the funniest thing ever, great theater to have him sucking the air out of the right wing. Hell, I'd contribute $1 just in the hopes he'd continue to run and show the true nutzoid side of the teepublicans.

[awoke_in_2003]

101. As wheels-off as Snooki is...

it is really not nice to compare her to Caribou Barbie

[Buzz Clik]

2. A dream come true for DUers. Something fresh and shiny to obsess over.

[corkhead]

5. an amusing folly from the otherwise depressing lineup of current events.

[darkangel218]

3. He has that many children??

Damn!

[Buzz Clik]

8. "I have nine children from seven women, and I’m running for president.” Or...

"I almost cut off my leg with a chainsaw."

[fleur-de-lisa]

24. "And I shit my pants to avoid military service! Vote for me!!!" - eom

[VanillaRhapsody]

45. and I like my women...well...let's just say....young!

[bluesbassman]

12. That he acknowledges/knows of...

I'd put the number significantly higher. Total womanizing dirtbag.

On his presidential run: Please do it Ted! I want to see you humiliated and owned in a debate.

[vinny9698]

4. Another Grifter, just like Newt

They see the advantage of running as a business, sell books, DVDs, get donations, and more publicity. It is a well paid gig, just look at Newt getting a half million line of credit from Tiffanys. Palin, Cain, the whole RW bunch.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

76. That's all it is, egoistical self-aggrandizing merchandizing. nt

[Cobalt-60]

104. Bang on. This clown could never win.

But it should do wonders for the sales of his albums.
Not to mention graft from billionaires trying to hedge their bets.

[louis-t]

6. Hmm, "nobody buys my music anymore so..."

[Lordquinton]

117. People still buy music

They just have the ability to preview albums now so they only buy good music.

So when it comes to Ted, what you said, yea.

[longship]

7. Puleeze run as a Republican!!!

No GOP campaign clown car would be complete without a clown like him.

Although if he gets on the ballot in enough states I don't care which party he runs under. It will siphon votes away from GOP.

[Sunlei]

9. Nugent can run w/ Sarah, and his good phone buddie Romney will back him.

Call in those chips Nugent, Romney and your R party owes you.

[kestrel91316]

10. He can pick Sarah Palin to run as his Veep. I bet she'd love that.

[Joey Liberal]

11. Nugent is a coward and is nuts - you know the repubs will love him!

LOL

[ZombieHorde]

13. I hope he runs third party with Palin. nt

[AlinPA]

100. That ticket would suck up a lot of the GOP base voters.

[Enrique]

14. Meat Loaf as his running mate

Nugent-Loaf 2016

[Marie Marie]

95. Oh just think of the beautiful music these two has- beens can make together.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

111. Nugent-Loaf 2016.... oh, that's too perfect

Nugent pinched a loaf in his pants...now he can pick one.....

Oh god this is beyond comedy gold!!!!!!!!!

[BanTheGOP]

15. Gun-totin', Zimmerman-backing Rethug Pedophiles have NO RIGHT to be president...

Nugent can go to hell, that child molesting bastard.

[klook]

16. The rush to board Republican Clown Car 2016 begins!

"Just What the Doctor Ordered" is apparently one of this moran's "songs." Perfect!

[VanillaRhapsody]

19. Oh please Oh please Oh please

*note to self* take out stock in Orville Redenbacher!

[Laffy Kat]

32. Bwaaaaaaaaahaaaaaa!

[wandy]

20. With Sarah Palin as VP? All I can say is...........

Karl! Go for it!
Ya bet ya. That's a real winner!

[mac56]

49. "The Quitter And The Sh_tter"!

[adirondacker]

62. DUZY!!! :) n/t

[StevePaulson]

94. That About Sums It Up Mac

You hit it right on the head.

[calimary]

120. Welcome to DU, StevePaulson, AND also adirondacker!

Glad you guys are here! We get some utterly SUPERB one-liners and original bumper-sticker fodder from our own midst, here on DU. This one will keep me laughing for awhile!

MAN, "The Quitter and the Shitter." Obviously they were made for each other! Sounds like date night in Political Hell!

[joesdaughter]

105. Bless You! n/t

[JimboBillyBubbaBob]

109. Hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!

Good one!

[trusty elf]

119. ........

[IMG][/IMG]

[Happyhippychick]

22. "People are constantly asking him to run"

*breathe*

[surrealAmerican]

34. Are they throwing things at him when they "ask" that?

That I could see.

[A Simple Game]

50. I get the impression you don't believe that to be true. Believe it!

If I were to get near enough, and I hope I never do, to ask him to run, I certainly would tell him "I wish you would run Ted".

[Happyhippychick]

56. Good point! I want him to run too!

[cheapdate]

96. I'd rather he didn't.

Not because he would have any chance at all of getting more than a few thousand votes in total, if by some chance he actually made it onto any state's ballots, but because he's a fucking lunatic and an asshole and there is absolutely no good that could come from giving him and his stupid followers any publicity whatsoever.

[ProfessorGAC]

110. They're Asking Him To Run But. . .

. . .they mean as far away from them as he can get!
GAC

[Mr. David]

25. And I thought they scraped the barrel with Rmoney..

Only to break through and go through the sewage that is the tea party.

[Hoyt]

26. Saw a yahoo with Nugent for Prez sticker on his truck Monday.

[WinstonSmith4740]

27. Please don't tease us.

Run, Ted, run! I'd love to see Hillary filet you in a debate.

[angrychair]

78. So, in a

Hilary vs. Ted debate...do you think Ted saying he wanted to stick a machine gun in her mouth would come up?

[WinstonSmith4740]

82. Um, I could be mistaken here...

but I thought he mentioned another orifice in that statement. Or that may have been said by another RW wacko.

Besides having his butt handed to him by Hillary, think of how much fun it would be to watch the crazies tie themselves in knots trying to explain why they're supporting a serial adulterer who has fathered multiple children by women other than his wife. Sanctity of marriage and all that. Plus, I'll be willing to bet he's not supporting them.

Run, Ted, RUN!!! THIS I wanna see!

[angrychair]

98. On a certain level

it would be interesting but Mr. Shittypants is out of his league.

[Jessy169]

28. Make My Day!

Ted will get the two-thumbs-up endorsements from Sarah Palin and Michelle Bauchman. He's a slam dunk for most obnoxious Republican candidate EVERRRRR.

[appleannie1]

29. Not just in his pants, he has some for brains.

[RiverNoord]

30. I know one thing - if Ted Nugent becomes the president in 2017

I will be either be dead or in jail by this time in four years.

[calimary]

57. Welcome to DU, RiverNoord!

ROFL!!! Glad you're here! It would be exquisite pleasure just to be able to haul out all his lovely statements and shove them back down his throat!

[RiverNoord]

84. Thanks -

That one was a no-brainer...

[muntrv]

31. Please do it, just so we can talk about your military record!

[yurbud]

42. it would be tough for a general to takes orders from a guy who shit his pants to avoid serving

He makes Dick Cheney look like Audie Murphy.

[AAO]

33. For the kiddies: Dumb Mother.... FER!.... He's a true (reference "defacation") American!

[arewenotdemo]

35. Surprised he hasn't shot anyone "in the face" yet.

[Bette Noir]

37. Bring it on.

I love a good circus.

[merrily]

38. Could he be more delusional?

[Iliyah]

39. Send in the clowns!

Trump is also considering in running as well.

[madrchsod]

40. he`s so bad...

the illinois teaparty president had to apologize for what he said turning a fundraising dinner.....

[silvershadow]

41. Is there a disqualification clause for mental illness? Just askin'...nt

[bearssoapbox]

43. Poopy Pants for President?

Santorum for VP?

A match made in...errr...ummm...well...

Speaking of matches.

[L0oniX]

44. PLease proceed. n/t

[former9thward]

46. He is like The Donald and Larry Flynt.

They pop up ever so often because they crave attention.

[IrishAyes]

47. I'll say the same thing about him I say about all GOP/teabaggers etc.

PLEASE RUN FOR PRESIDENT, TED! I BEG YOU! THE MORE VOTES YOU PULL FROM THE ESTABLISHMENT CANDIDATE, THE BETTER FOR THE DEMS!

I write Sarah Palin and Huckabee all the time too, begging them to run, though I certainly don't use the previous sentence. No, I beg them to SAVE US from those nasty Democrats and make this country great again! Br'er Rabbit all the way, but they won't believe anyone who rats me out because their egos rule them.

Don't throw me in that briar patch, puh-leeze!!!!!!!!!!!

[Turbineguy]

48. Great idea!

He can shit his pants for a few days prior to swearing in.

[HockeyMom]

51. My thoughts exactly

[truebluegreen]

52. Wonderful news!

[Ilsa]

53. This is great. People need to see how truly repugnant he is

in the primaries. He'll destroy whomever is seriously running.

[Jackpine Radical]

54. Trouser Nugget--into shitstorms before shitstorms became cool.

Da man's ahead of his time, I say.

[47of74]

55. Ahem.

[Harry Monroe]

58. Wow, what a dream ticket!! Nugent/Bachman

Bat Shit Insane and Bat Shit Insane. Boggles the mind just thinking about it.

RUN TED RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DesertRat]

59. And his ideal running mate...

Victoria Jackson!

[nolabear]

60. Aw c'mon. His picture would look lovely in the White House.

[Nevernose]

61. Why not? His royalties have to be running low

And if Palin can be set for life for being an idiot, it's got to be looking good to Ted.

[on point]

63. Great! Please donate more money to economy via delusional repukes!

[Blue Owl]

64. President Pantload reporting for duty

n/t

[mysuzuki2]

65. If he was elected president

I'd shit my pants.

[SugarShack]

66. One woman was his daughter the pedophile adopted cuz he could not marry. too young.

NO NUGE!

[mstinamotorcity2]

67. Ted

Who

[YeahSureRight]

68. Ted and Sister Sarah as the Leaders of the New CONSERVATIVE GOP!

Go Ted! Go Sarah!

Where can I give them money to run?

BAWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

[Ash_F]

69. Do it Teddy. /nt

[Paladin]

70. Suits me fine.

Anything that: (1) damages Republican electoral strength, and (2) further illuminates the utter insanity of the gun culture in this country, sounds good. Go, Ted.

[Bonhomme Richard]

71. I would pay to see him and Christie battle it out for.....

the votes of the crazed right.

[GoCubsGo]

72. He'll run from the grave of from prison.

Because that's where he said he'd be if Obama got re-elected, right? Dead or in prison? I can't believe some people take this assclown seriously.

[LibGranny]

73. He probably just realized what a scam Palin runs from her "PAC" and

thought he'd get in on the action!

[azureblue]

74. Please!

With Bachmann or West as a running mate, it is sure to be a nut fest from the git go.

[Wolf Frankula]

75. Toilet Ted Nugent: Nine Children from Seven Women

He'll Run as the Traditional Family Values Candidate.

Keep America No. 1 Poop Your Pants!

Wolf

[wordpix]

77. Nuge the Stooge will have a great run while it lasts, go for it!

More "whoops" on the campaign tail, I mean trail.

[Fuddnik]

80. Please! Don't insult the Stooges.

His music suck's, so he's looking for a new job.

[The Wizard]

79. Comedy writers around the globe

are salivating.

[the_chinuk]

81. What a freaking coincidence!

For I, myself, am 'considering' naming myself Emperor Norton … The Second!

I have zero children from one woman.

You're welcome, America!

[mokawanis]

83. He's following the Palin example

Keep getting your name in the news and then rake in the money from all the morons stupid enough to believe your bullshit. It's all about the money.

[DFW]

85. And you know what Fox Noise will say:

"Many of our viewers are intrigued by the idea....." (mostly Roger, Ailes, Chris, Wallace, Neil and Cavuto)

I say go for it.

Nugent heading the Crazy Party ticket,
Palin heading the Lazy Party ticket,
Arpaio heading the Tazy Party ticket

And last but least, Rubio/Randio as the "We're Not Them" wing of the Republican Party

Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert will get down on their knees and thank the Buddha every night of the campaign.

[shenmue]

86. Please run!

I want to see Hillary Clinton squash him like bug.

[marmar]

87. Idiocracy has officially become a documentary.

[freshwest]

88. Please, please, let this be true! Whoever the Democrats run will be sporting this look:

[DeschutesRiver]

90. His history of sex with underage girls means this is over before it starts.

But I'm guessing this is being done just to make a bit of donation cash. Like Palin trolls for cash every now and then.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

91. I didn't notice which Party he'd run with ...

... probably not Democratic or Green parties.

The Republican party always seems to have the most interesting initial batch of candidates. The first few debates are most entertaining.

[MisterP]

93. but he'd soil the good name of the country--the curtains too! nt

[bayareaboy]

97. Did you hear that ...

Ten thousand comics just whispered PLEASE DO IT!

[davidpdx]

99. Nugent/Vitter for president

The diaper party candidates

[rpannier]

102. Some politicians kiss babies

Ten Nugent will be happy to tongue your 13-year old daughter

[appleannie1]

103. His defication to his country is outstanding. It is hard to be more deficated than he is.

[socalgal58]

107. great role model for GOP

the pant pooping, father of 8 (maybe even 9) children- 5 out of wedlock including a girl of who he gave up for adoption, pedophile, racist, bastion of christian morality, himself. I can hear my conservative 'friends' whooping and hollering now about how a real patriot will be running for office. Bring it, Ted.

[ehrnst]

108. Depends would bankroll the campaign.(nt)

[wtmusic]

112. Nuge for President of Egypt 2013 nt

[corkhead]

113. How about that "Libertarian Paradise" Somalia

[AtheistCrusader]

114. Oh my god, I'm going to start stocking up on popcorn right now

The primary is going to be AMAZING

[ctsnowman]

115. lol thanks for the post.

[Orsino]

116. Like the president in Idiocracy...

[Iggo]

118. Silly Party.

[ileus]
