Abstract

Political profile of Bill Clarke,36, of Greenewho is running on the right as the candidate of the U.S. Taxpayer's Party. Clarke, who unsuccessfully ran in 1996 for the U.S. Senate on a platform that would abolish the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Department of Education, and the right of women to have an abortion, adheres to those same values. Clarke would largely abolish taxes and would restore religion to public life. He acknowledges that the goal of third party candidates is not to become political operatives, but threaten the established parties in order to bring about policy changes.
