Robert was the opening speaker at the first Hackers On Planet Earth conference in 1994 and he’s been back every time since then. In this talk, he will speak about his six week formal campaign as a Reform Party candidate for the presidency in 2012. He communicated with every presidential candidate less Romney and Obama, and will outline what he learned about “the system,” the personalities running for President, and several specific recommendations he has made to the Occupy movement and others about how to reboot the Republic. His campaign website remains live at http://bigbatusa.org.
