Russell Hirshon is a 34 year old Bartender in Washington D.C. who has lost his mind after being subjected to a lifetime of political sound bites. From Fawn Hall to Fanny Fox, Crooked Congressmen to devious Presidents, mischievous Mayors to conniving Council Members, all in all, it has been an education by example. In 1990, Russell Hirshon crossed the line of decency and became a candidate himself. No longer wanting to be a goody two shoes his efforts have landed him close but not into the Big House. A graduate of St. John's College High School in the District, Russell attended but never graduated from: American University, Boston University, Georgetown University, Montgomery Community College, UCLA, The Corcoran school of art and of course the Chase Tennis Academy in Bethlehem, New Hampshire.

He has lost consistantly and decisively every time he has run for office, although depending on your definition it is possbile that he might be considered victorious. His first race was for that of Mayor of Washington D.C. back in 1990. He ran for President in 1992 and Mayor again in 1994. He has kept his bartending job throughout in the slim chance that he didn't win by popular vote. Needless to say he's one hell of a bartender! His day job includes countless hours of html programing for the Business Applications Department ofMagnet interactive Studios .

His Bartending Jobs in Washington D.C. over the last 15 years have included Scandals, Whispers, Cagney's, Cafe Med, The Bank, Cities, The Fifth Column, The Crow Bar, Dixie Bar and Grill and presently Sesto Senso which is at 18th and Connecticut Ave. N.W. (202-785-9525 for dinner reservations). My favorite Shot is the "Newt in your eye", so ask for it by name if you happen to stop in for a drink, and don't forget to leave a tip.

Unfortunately the bar he bartends at doesnt have a web site, but if you have any questions about a particular drink or would like some information on getting a campaign poster just go ahead and ask!!

Russell is an Independent Candidate for President who finds himself just a little liberal of Ronald Reagan and a bit conservative of Jerry Brown, with a little bit of Anthony Perkins for good measure. As a child he was elected to the local Neighborhood Planning Council #4 . After watching mothers argue over school funding for six months, he realized that the only way to get a date was to actually listen to the windbags and then invite their daughters over for a political history lesson. Thus another political career was born. Russell is also a member of the American Automobile Association and The National Geographic Society.
