Alvin Greene: 'I Was Born to be President'

Looks like Barack Obama now has a primary challenge. Alvin Greene, the unemployed man who ran against Jim Demint in the South Carolina Senate race is apparently seriously considering a run for the Presidency. And while many Americans may not take him seriously, he sure is.


According to Politico, Greene is setting up the first steps to run for the office of the chief executive. However, he still has to fight off the pesky charges that he showed pornography to an unwilling college student. It is unknown whether he will be found guilty or not.


But he appeared confident when talking to the media:

“I’m the next president,” Greene said. “I’ll be 35 … just before November, so I was born to be president. I’m the man. I’m the man. I’m the man. Greene’s the man. I’m the man. I’m the greatest person ever. I was born to be president. I’m the man, I’m the greatest individual ever.”

Greene plans on pleading not guilty to the charges despite the fact that his lawyers did not show up to the trial.

According to his campaign website he lost only because of the intragisence of Democrats.

Comedian Lewis Black and others imply that voting for me was dumb, but the South Carolina Democratic Party bosses were the dumb ones. The 358,276 people who voted for Greene voted for their own interests. That’s smart.

Oh, and he has a comic book about himself as basically the savior of the world. [warning, PDF]

So here he is: the long awaited challenger from Obama's left for the Democratic nomination. Keep in mind that he also thought he was going to beat Jim Demint and won the Democratic primary over a state office-holder.
