WHY BLAKE IS RUNNING

"'An old-school' fiscal conservative who loathes Bush's tax and education policies, Ashby sees virtually all other issues through a fiscal prism." -- RFT November 26, 2003

He has been a life-long Republican but has become frustrated with the fiscal irresponsibility and misplaced social conservatism of the party. He believes, as so many Americans do, that the strength of the our nation's government has been weakened by political hypocrisy on the parts of both major parties, and their neglect of the critical issues that affect America most is making our nation vulnerable. Blake Ashby commits now and as before, to stimulating the debate in order to improve the political and economic health of our country.

Protest Candidacy in 2004

In 2004, Blake got so frustrated with the party and the president that he ran as a protest candidate in the 2004 Republican Presidential Primary. Click here to visit the 2004 website.
