Man of the People Hi!
I just got this in the mail:
http://www.manofthepeople.net
It seems to be about a 'new candidate' for the election.
In the About the Campaign section there is are highlighted letters suggesting there is more then meets the eye. Smells like a game this is the e-mail I got along with it.
The first truly populist candidate wants YOU
The Man of The People has begun his 6-week online bid for the Presidency of the United States. This is the first campaign of its kind. You have been contacted because you are familiar with online organizing and communication, which is the backbone of this campaign. The outcome of this election will effect everyone in the world for many years to come, so there is a place for you even if you aren't a U.S. citizen.
There will be many challenges along the way, but the community we build will reflect the greatest parts of America: people like you.
Sound like fun? Then the Man of the People is the candidate for you.
Things you should know about The Man:
- The Man is running as a write-in candidate.
- The Man is not a "Washington insider".
- The Man is a true populist, and the face of his campaign will be the faces of those he fights for.
- The Man wants you to know that his platform is your platform, and no issue is too small.
Join us for this great experience- we look forward to getting to know you.

Re: Man of the People Got it here too. MOTP scares me a little too much to be president. Of course, according to the clues on his About page, he's a Transformer... so that could be cool.

Clarification on what Star Spider said: On the "About the Campaign" page: green letters spell "more than meets the eye."

Click on the "Join The Movement!" button takes you to a social networking site for this campaign. There's a video by Kate of the People there and currently 8 members. Can't seem to find anything else so far. Also, whois shows it registered to DomainsByProxy, so no help there.
