Kevorkian campaigns on 'freedom' platform (http://www.theoaklandpress.com/stories/080208/loc_20080802396.shtml)

That's the main thrust of the campaign Jack Kevorkian says he is pushing in his bid to unseat incumbent U.S. Rep. Joe Knollenberg, R-Bloomfield Hills. Kevorkian held a community roundtable Friday night at the Birmingham Community House on Bates Street. Kevorkian, who is running as an independent, faces Knollenberg and Democrat Gary Peters in the November election.
 
Famous for his legal battles involving assisted suicide, Kevorkian spoke to a small group of people, quoting Thomas Jefferson, Bernard Shaw and Benjamin Franklin.

"I'm not doing this for personal gain.  I'm here to educate and inform the public," he said, likening the electorate to sheep who have been denied their rights.

I would think the people of Michigan have enough problems without this clown showing up to the party.  Doens't say what his political affiliation is... I assume he's running as an Independent.
