Man Claiming to be a Vampire and a Direct Descendant of Vlad the Impaler Says He's Running on the GOP Ticket in 2012

TAMPA, Fla., March 15, 2010

CBS) Not satisfied with living in Florida, Jonathon "The Impaler" Sharkey wants to move to Washington, D.C., to become the nation's first vampire president, reports CBS affiliate WTSP.

Sharkey, 45, spent Friday on a Greyhound bus with his new fiancee, Audrianna Foster, a 19-year-old girl from Ohio he met online. She too believes she is a vampire, or vampyre.

"I haven't dated a girl older than 19 since 2006," said the Tampa man as his 19-year-old daughter and his 2-year-old grandson met him at the Greyhound station. "It's good to be me."

"The Impaler" claims he's a direct descendent of Vlad II the Impaler, better known as Dracula.

He has scheduled a Monday press conference in Tampa to announce his plans to file paperwork to run for President of the United States in 2012. He recently switched his party affiliation from Independent to Republican so he can run with the G.O.P.

8. Apparently Mr. Vlad has a problem with age appropriate relationships

Just a few weeks ago he swore his eternal love to a 16-year old. Her mother and the Minneapolis police department failed to condone the romance:

To me, he looks like Andrew Breitbart in a bad wig:

20. He's out of jail?

This appears to be the same guy who moved up here to the crannies of TN to start a Vampire Commune. He figured he could hide out here.
That folks wouldn't mind.

They might not have minded if he hadn't posted on his Myspace page that he needed to consume the blood of a blue-eyed, blond haired virgin.

he was arrested, I believe, for claiming if elected he would kill Bush.

Looks like the same guy. I know one of his defense attorneys, who thinks the guy is "fascinating." I think he's a dumbass, but I did laugh at how much he hated Bush. Even Vampires can't stand him!
