A lot of individual resident wants to be a US president but not all have the capacity to run. It requires popularity, fame and brilliant ideas so that people will give a vote but when comes to popularity and fame is Santa Claus isn't famous and popular? I thing everybody know Santa even kids. Santa Claus wants to be US president.
But, this Santa doesn't live at the North Pole — and was known as Thomas O'Connor until 2005, when his resemblance to the Christmas figure helped persuade him to legally change his name.
Claus is one of 14 write-in presidential candidates registered with the West Virginia secretary of state's office, part of a long list thanks to the state's easy registration rules.
"All they have to do is file a form at least 42 days before the election" to be write-in candidates for presidency in the state, said Jason Williams, manager of the elections division in the secretary of state's office. "Santa Claus filed his form and it was notarized, so he's registered along with everyone else."But, this Santa doesn't live at the North Pole — and was known as Thomas O'Connor until 2005, when his resemblance to the Christmas figure helped persuade him to legally change his name.

"Everyone else" in West Virginia includes Keith Russell David, currently an inmate at Beaumont Federal Correctional Institution in Texas, and Pennsylvania resident Ron Hobbs, whose platform includes requiring all public businesses to have restrooms.
There are 25 write-in candidates for statewide or congressional office in West Virginia this year. Their names won't appear on the official ballot, but votes for them will be tallied, while writing in an unregistered name will mean an uncounted vote.

Noel: If you had done your homework, you would have realized that the reason I ran for President was to draw attention to the plight of the 2 million children in the U.S. annually who are abused, neglected,m exploited, abandoned, homeless, and institutionalized through no fault of their own. My legal name is Santa Claus, and I'm a full-time volunteer advocate for vulnerable children in dire circumstances. Santa (SantaClaus08 dot com).
Noel: Almost forgot. That is NOT a photo of me above your article. How lazy can you get? Santa
