Yes, Mr. Anderson is running again, trying to get his National Unity Party
on the ballot in at least 10 states.  If he succeeds, his party is
eligible for a substantial amount of federal matching funds based on
his 1980 performance.

My questions: 

     Is there any point to this excersise?  Does he really represent
     a dramatic departure from the candidates of the established parties?
     Or has he simply been bitten by the "Presidential Bug"?

If he does get the Federal $$$ it will be interesting to see if the
availabilty of this kind of money will have any impact on our 2 party
system (and if it does, how long it lasts).
