'Swastika on the ballot': American Nazi Party gets its first lobbyist By Ian Johnston, msnbc.com
The American Nazi Party has its first lobbyist in Washington, according to reports. The Hill newspaper, which covers Congress when it is in session, said John Bowles had registered with House and Senate offices as a representative of the “ANP,” according to disclosure records. The records said that he planned to lobby on “political rights and ballot access laws,” and other issues such as civil rights, healthcare and immigration. “You know, congressmen and congresswomen have always been telling the American public that they were open to other viewpoints,” Bowles told The Hill. “I’m going to see if they were sincere about that, or I’m going to call their bluff.”
Bowles was a presidential candidate in 2008 for the National Socialist Movement, according to US News and World Report. Nazi comes from the German words for National Socialist. He told The Hill that people in America did not understand the term socialism, but knew what Nazism was. “So [we] decided: Why don’t we just say what we are?” he added. “In the future, when we get people on the ballot, when people see the swastika on the ballot, they’ll know what they’re getting."...................>>>>.............>>>>......................http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_n.....-first-lobbyist?lite
