I never heard of this guy before.

And this is From Wikipedia:

Jimmy McMillan, also known as Papa Smurf,[1] is the founder of the Rent Is Too Damn High Party, a New York-based political party. McMillan is the party's current nominee for governor of New York State[2]. In 2005 and 2009. McMillan was the party's mayoral candidate[3][4] for New York City.

In 2005, he received over 1000 votes[5] (.03% of the total vote). In 2009, he received 2615 votes for his second campaign for Mayor.[6]

McMillan has recently stated his views on gay marriage, by saying "The Rent Is Too Damn High Party believes that if you want to marry a shoe, I'll marry you." Regarding his use of black gloves, McMillan said: "I’m a war vet," McMillan said. "Don’t forget I was in Vietnam for two and half years and I have three Bronze Stars, but the chemicals of Agent Orange -- dioxin and a lot of other chemicals mixed up -- I would get sick. When I get home tonight, I know I’m not going to be able to breathe if I take them off. It could be psychological, I don’t know, but I just put em on and wear them anyway."
