SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (AP) - A comedian who's run for president eight times since 1968 has joined the 2008 campaign.
The punchline? Pat Paulsen died in April 1997.
To mark April's status as National Humor Month, Paulsen's hat has been thrown into the presidential ring again.
His widow and campaign manager, Noma Paulsen, has just announced the winners of the Pat Paulsen for President 2008 Campaign Slogan Contest. Among the winners was Joel Goodman of Saratoga Springs with the slogan "Pat Paulsen '08: Never Say Die!"
Goodman, director of The Humor Project Inc., has also agreed to become Paulsen's New York campaign manager.
Paulsen first launched his satiric campaign for the presidency on the stage of the "Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour" in 1968.
