Default Greg Raymer Campaigning for Libertarian Party\'s Vice Presidential Slot

POKERNEWS.com Interview

Here's the key excerpt.

Bernard Chapin: Also, are you thinking of becoming a politician? If so, what kind of office do you desire? What types of positions would you support?

Greg Raymer: In many ways, I would not make a good politician, at least not the way the business of politics presently works in our country. I am not very good at compromising. If you convince me you are right, I will agree with you, but until you do, I will do what I think is the smartest thing to do. Having said that, I am currently talking to some people who run the Libertarian Party about the possibility of running to be the party's official candidate for Vice President of the United States. With a few exceptions, I would support the official planks of the Libertarian Party.

Given that he promotes Stars, wouldn't there be a conflict of interests?

Stars is better than party in terms of support, software and leadership. When poker becomes legal Stars will be bought by MGM and then they will be #1 until they mess it up.
