The Congressman is getting more and more caught up with the open source and free software movements as time goes by. Villanueva was once invited to an event in Columbia where he was to meet with the Free Software Foundation's Richard Stallman, and to his great disappointment this event had to be cancelled.
Whew!

If every Slashdot reader wrote him in on the ballot, he would end up with more votes than Ross Perot.

Maybe he could get an H1-B visa. It seems likely that there no US citizens that have the skills needed to be Commander-In-Chief.

Are you kidding, the way Slashdot readers spell he would be lucky to get a single vote. Earlier post couldn't even figure out his last name...
