10 most ridiculous candidates to run for president

8. Homer Aubrey Tomlinson

Of all of the ridiculous presidential candidates that have run in the United States, Homer Aubrey Tomlinson has to be a personal favorite for one reason: The religious leader anointed himself to be the “King of the World” after several attempts to win the US office were unsuccessful. You have to respect that kind of dedication to your cause and also the man’s ambitions. Being president of a country is one thing. Being the ruler of literally all that you see is quite another. Tomlinson was never recognized as royalty by any functioning government, quite the show of disrespect for such a king.
