Especially when they have even the slightest chance of winning.
A known Holocaust denier and former Nazi leader is the only Republican running for the GOP nomination for Illinois 3rd Congressional District.
The Chicago Sun-Times described candidate and retired insurance agent Arthur Jones as an outspoken Holocaust denier, activist anti-Semite and white supremacist. He admitted to the newspaper that he was a former leader of the American Nazi Party and that his current group, America First Committee, bars Jewish people from joining.
Jones campaign website, ArtJonesForCongressman.com, includes a section titled Holocaust? that features photocopied pages for typewritten fliers that describe the Holocaust racket as the biggest, blackest, lie [sic] in history. He suggests that a few professional concentration camp survivors promote the conspiracy, an idea which appears to predate the modern concept of crisis actors paid to enact false flag attacks that trick the public into believing atrocities have happened.
When asked by the Sun-Times about his views, the candidate explained that hes running for Congress not the chancellor of Germany.
To me the Holocaust is what I said it is, Jones said. Its an international extortion racket.

(37,457 posts)we would NEVER get a neo-Nazi on it. If we did, the outcry would be tremendous and I think the idiot would be forced to quit. Besides, THEY have the neo-Nazis, not us. Neo-nazis don't fit in with us at all.
