Blog post about standing for election

@wking I'm not too worried about individual donations, as there are various Super PACs backing my candidacy ;-) 

In all seriousness though, I found it very hard to talk about background, previous involvement and what I'd do in < 400 words. Since this is the only opportunity for candidates to sell themselves, I don't think it hurts to give them approximately 500 words. All we really want to ensure is that people are writing something of blog post length and not thesis length.
