I thought the same thing. I checked all the tabs on the page.

I’d probably need to do a little more digging on him before I’d buy into it. Things like verifying his employment, office location, and speaking with his colleagues. For all we know it could be a liberal jokester who setup the side to make fools out of conservatives after they start backing him and then reveal him to be a fabrication.
The reason I say this because I’ve seen some pretty elaborate fraud while workinng cases over the past 20 + years. I remember one distinctly. There was this guy that had setup several completely bogus land development and management companies that were related and looked to be legit on paper as they were all really registered. He registered them in South America (so American investors wouldn’t be able check them out as easily) and had several websites setup that looked completely real with hundreds of pages, photographs, executive bios, contact information , the whole nine yards.
The companies were setup to sell properties and manage real estate holdings in South America that were supposedly in areas that were highly desirable as in oceanfront, mountainous regions, basically highly desirable prospective vacation home lots that would have very high resale values later down the road. The problem - none of the properties really existed other than on paper. And the paperwork I examed consisted of fake title searches, fake deeds, land surveys, etc...this guy was a master. I’ve worked a lot of fraud cases but the depth this guy went to was unreal. Put it this way - he did a better job of perpuating a fraud than BHO ever thought about doing. I hate to admit it but I had to admire the guy’s tenacity and drive to pull off such an elaborate hoax. It was about as good a hoax as you could get. He took advantage of peopel’s greed and knew people would buy the properties and probably not visit them as long as the could see photographs, surveys, and land titles / deed then try to flip them for a big profit later. He only got busted when people tried to actually visit the land sites and found out they didn’t exist.
