'Naked Cowboy' to run for mayor

[Brutus]

its about time there was more transparency in government.

NEW YORK — A New York busker who calls himself "The Naked Cowboy" and entertains crowds of tourists in his underwear in Times Square year round, Tuesday launched a bid to run for mayor.
"No one knows how to do more with less than yours truly, and that's the kind of thinking I plan on sharing with my fellow New Yorkers when you elect me," said Robert Burck, announcing his bid to run against Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
The long-haired, tattooed Burck has become a Times Square feature and said on his website that he plans to make an official announcement at his regular haunt on Wednesday.
Dressed in nothing but a cowboy hat, boots, and a pair of white underpants emblazoned with the words "Naked Cowboy," Burck earns about 1,000 dollars a day with his busking.
