Deerfield Beach resident Josue Larose has filed an unprecedented amount of paperwork with elections officials

He calls himself a billionaire. He is a write-in candidate to be Florida's next governor at the same time he's running for U.S. Senate in 2012. He formed a political group for female Roman Catholic priests.

Deerfield Beach resident Josue Larose may be the most interesting man in the world, if you believe the documents he's filed with Florida's Division of Elections and the Federal Election Commission.

Larose's name is well known to state election officials. Within the last 18 months, he has formed 40 new political parties and at least 340 state political action committees with names ranging from the bland — American Banks Political Action Committee — to the bizarre — Billionaire Josue Larose's Dating Women Committee.
