Saunders Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Just when it seemed the 2016 presidential race couldn’t get any more crowded, or colorful, another oddball candidate has put in a bid for the White House — under the name Deez Nuts. Mr. Nuts is running as an independent from Iowa and filed his candidacySunday with the Federal Election Committee. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/jul/28/deez-nuts-joins-2016-presidential-race/ While conservative firebrand Donald Trump still holds a considerable lead in the 2016 presidential polls, a new candidate is making unexpected gains: Deez Nuts. A new July poll from Public Policy Polling shows Mr. Nuts, who entered the race last month, at 9 percent in North Carolina, in addition to 8 percent in Minnesota and 7 percent in Iowa. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/aug/19/deez-nuts-rising-polls-9-percent-nc/ 1 Link to comment

He's actually a 15 year old kid who took advantage of some weird non-rules with the Federal Election Commission and is now polling 9% in North Carolina. What an idea! Link to comment

But you do know how this originated right? It's from a video that went viral on social media. Go YouTube "deez nuts", it's pretty funny. Link to comment
zoogs Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Oh! lol. No, I didn't know that part. Thanks, haha! And while this kid's name is not Deez Nuts, there are actually people with that legal name, apparently... Link to comment
Hammerhead Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 If a vote for Deez Nuts takes a vote away from Trump, I'm all for it. Link to comment
