Stewart Alexander 2012 presidential campaign

Alexander, who had previously campaigned for the Socialist Party USA nomination in 2008 and served as their Vice Presidential nominee, selected Alejandro Mendoza as his running mate.

[5][6][7] Alexander has additionally demanded term limits for those in the Supreme Court and called for Justice Clarence Thomas to be impeached for not noting that he received $700,000 on a government disclosure form and for attending "secret meetings with conservative business leaders at an event sponsored and hosted by the Koch brothers" before the Citizens United vs. FEC decision.

[16][17][18] Since there weren't many other stories about the campaign, the Presidential questionnaire put out by the Socialist Party USA gives some idea of his other positions as does the issues page on his website.
