JonBenet's dad to campaign for seat in Michigan House

Advertisements [?]

<snip>

The father of slain child beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey is running for a seat in Michigan's Legislature.

John Ramsey, who has lived for years under a cloud of suspicion in the death of his daughter, told USA TODAY he is running for the Michigan House of Representatives because his family wants to put its notoriety to work for the public good.

"We've been talking for a number of years about what we are supposed to do with this unique platform we've been given," he said in an interview Monday. "I thought this is how I could really make a difference."

Ramsey, 60, will formally announce his candidacy today in Charlevoix, Mich., where his family has a summer home.
