Lt. Gov. Candidate and Lone Star Separatist Daniel Miller Says Texas Has 'Electile Dysfunction'

If you ask Daniel Miller, Texans are frustrated with candidates who talk a good game but fail to please the electorate.

“We refer to it as 'electile dysfunction,'” he said.

So last week, Miller made the announcement: He’s entering the race to beat Dan Patrick for lieutenant governor.

Miller is president of the Texas Nationalist Movement (TNM), which is pushing for the state to break with the Union and become an “independent, self-governing nation” — a process known as “Texit.” He hopes to edge out Patrick in the Republican primary.

In his announcement video, Miller said the lieutenant governor's race is a rare opportunity for Texans to ditch the political establishment that “holds nothing but contempt for the people they purport to represent.”

They are constantly climbing over each other to claim the title of most conservative, which leaves us with a government run by extremists.
