Chelsea Manning eyes U.S. Senate seat for Maryland
Chelsea Manning, the transgender U.S. Army soldier who served seven years in military prison for leaking classified data, is seeking the Democratic Party's nomination for the U.S. Senate seat from Maryland, according to Federal election filings seen on Saturday.
[...] Democratic Senator Ben Cardin was elected in 2006 to that seat and is expected to run for re-election this year. He is the senior Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Cardin was easily re-elected in 2012, beating his Republican challenger by 30 points in the heavily-Democratic state.

Republicans drew first Blood! So no mercy! We will run Oprah! We will run PeeWee Herman! We will run Justin
BieberTimberlake! All because the Republicans aspired to Dynasty, and they could not find out who killed JR, so they elected W! An ignorant man, an easily controlled man, the type of idiot that would invade Afghanistan, the graveyard of Empires. And then they elect a clown, mostly because Mike Pence has had sex with animals, and that the rest of the stable was not more insane than W. So when your Grandkids ask you, who destroyed American, you can just say, "Republicans". Them and Rand Paul. And Paul Ryan. And Ayn Rand and Paul Ryan. And Ron Paul. And Nixon. And Reagone. And Bill O'Really. And Shawn Hankerchief. And Milo Holdmydickabit. And Runaway1956.
