This USAF veteran claimed he was ordained on the streets of Exeter, NH in 1976. He always carried a large - print Bible under his left arm when campaigning. A switch-hitter who never connected in either party, he accepted no donations and spend about $10,000 total of his own money in 20 years of running for President.
