Interesting Random Facts--Vermin Supreme

The previous post caused me to revisit my journal entries from the 2000 RNC protests, which caused me to remember Vermin Supreme.

Vermin Supreme was an activist/comedian, who was at the 2000 RNC protests, and claimed to be running for president himself.  He carried around his own bullhorn with him, and I remember him yelling a lot of funny things during the protests.  (To give credit where credit is due, the guy was funny).

"I wonder what ever happened to him?" I thought.  "Is he still active?"

It turns out he is.  And he's got his own Wikipedia entry.

And he's also a Youtube celebrity:
