My name is Kevin Ades. I'm really nobody special. Just a guy.

I like video games. I like animals. I like people but I'm not great at communicating with them. I think I'm autistic but I can't be bothered to get tested. In a perfect world, I'd have a house with enough room for my family to live in, a yard big enough for my kids to play in, and a little garage/shed space to tinker around in. Unfortunately, I have none of those things. I have a space that I rent, a partner and 2 cats. I gave up on having kids when I was about 15, because how could I in good conscious bring children into a hellscape like this. Many times in my life I'd argue with my dad about a better world and how it could be achieved. And when I Ideologically had him on the ropes he'd throw out ol' reliable. It'd be nice, but you'll never get a politician who votes against their own interests.

My fellow Americans, I volunteer as a politician that seeks not to stuff his own pockets, but to steer America to a brighter future where every Man, Woman, Child, Etc. feels spiritually rich.
  • The well being of our country and its people should be prioritized over short term gains for rich people that keep getting richer. technology has advanced beyond the point of an "all hands on deck" economy. the amount of labor it takes to run America is less than the amount of laborers available. We shouldn't be forcing people to work meaningless jobs to receive basic human dignity.
  • Our government is rife with corruption, and needs to be cleaned out entirely. We need term limits, we need age limits, we need salary limits. politicians should live like monks, not celebrities. If an elected official starts to act out of line, its the duty of the citizens to straighten them out by any means necessary.
  • I believe in love and peace for all mankind. I dream of a world with no war, where any person of any denomination feels safe to walk the streets in broad daylight and the dead of night, free from the fear of harm or persecution. And I believe we could see this world within our lifetime.
Healthcare, Energy, and Transportation. Everyone within our borders deserves top notch medical care. Our electrical grid should be run on economically efficient and ecologically friendly sources. America needs fewer cars and more trains. We should have a network of low, medium, and high speed rails to connect every corner of our great nation.
