Pornographer Al Goldstein is running for President

[Ian David]

Would-Be President Al Goldstein on SSM

Al Goldstein's running for U.S. President is certainly no more absurd than Sam Brownback's doing the same. What's absurd is that an aging ex-porn king is lower down the list than arguably our most bigoted and dumbest U.S. Senator in decades.

Warning: If you click through to Alvin's campaign site, be aware that his platform is mildly obscene and the home page features vintage nudity including him.

If you need to know why I even care or mention it, you should also be aware that I knew him and even did a little work for his rags. Also, he has taken a position on same-sex marriage. That follows.

Apparently, I'm one of the few who has a kind word or more to write about him. At 70 or 71, he still revels in unrepentant sexuality and sexism and his opening campaign blurb frames him:

Why he's running:
Everyone knows politics is a dirty business. Who better to run than a veteran of an even dirtier business?



So, Al is still clever and he's bright, crudely funny and insatiably curious.

You don't have to go to his lewd main site to catch his YouTube vids of his positions or at least slurs on Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, racism, George Bush, Iraq, and same-sex marriage.

Perhaps a transcript of the quintuple divorce veteran on SSM will be plenty. He must have seen the coverage in the gay press from the anti-marriage folk to lead him to quip:

Gay marriage should be permitted as much as heterosexual marriage, because the ultimate perversion is not the homosexuality but the marriage. Marriage is impossible because people change and monogamy is an absurd, fallacious philosophy. I'm opposed to marriage, but if a gay person wants to marry, let him suffer too.

Perhaps not surprisingly, the serial marrier's campaign lists an adult search engine as its sponsor.

4. Is that a roll of quarters in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?

2. If that is a current picture of him, he is looking much better than he did

in the 70's.

3. He don't look too good...

I remember the fat guy who scooped "I Got My Blowjob Through the NY Times" and everyone hoped to see at Plato's Retreat.
