Pegasus: What drew you to run for office?



Poulter: I was asked to by the Texas Libertarian Party



Pegasus: What are the platforms of your campaign?



Poulter: That it is immoral and hypocritical for the Texas Republican Party to tell the citizens of this state how to run their lives in terms of their sexuality and vices while simultaneously claiming they believe in small government.



Pegasus: What are the concerns of the people in your community that you represent?



Poulter: Most people I've talked to worry about the economy and the unravelling of the current economic order.



Pegasus: What are the sources of conflict in your election contest?



Poulter: I don't understand the question

Poulter: Since I do not entertain the possibility that I might actually be elected, I am free to sincerely speak my mind about things.



Pegasus: Do you have a favorite Presidential candidate?



Poulter: Ron Paul



Pegasus: How do you feel about the following issues from the area?:



* Convention center hotel in Dallas



Poulter: Should not fall under the purview of the government



* Switching freeways from free to toll-based



Poulter: Toll roads are an excellent way to privatize "public goods" and I support them.



* HOV lanes



Poulter: While an excellent idea, I'd like to see a study regarding whether they have changed anyone's driving habits. If not, we should abandon them.



* DART rail



Poulter: One of the few government projects I could support.



* Barnett Shale drilling



Poulter: Yes



* Cellphone use in cars



Poulter: Yes



* Open internet access in public libraries

Pegasus: How do you feel about the following national issues?:



* War in Iraq



Poulter: Immortal and completely unjustifiable



* Immigration



Poulter: Need to target employers who hire illegal workers. Eliminate the jobs and they will stop coming.
