Yes, he is strongly considering running. He would rule.
He took a massive and public stance that may have single handedly set the global NGOs (Non-governmental Organizations) efforts to usurp national sovereignty and impose international gun control/confiscation back 5 years.
National Review magazine had a cover story in their recent issue.
My favorite quote -
"The Secretariat Building (the UN building) in New York has 38 stories. If you lost ten stories today, it wouldn't make a bit of difference."
Lincoln Chaffee and George Voinovich (two politically dead Repubeicans) did not like him, so that is one hell of an endorsement!
From Wikipedophilia-
Bolton also led the Bush administration's opposition on constitutional grounds to the International Criminal Court, negotiating with many countries to sign agreements, called Article 98 agreements, with the U.S. to exempt Americans from prosecution by the Court, which is not recognized by the U.S.; more than 100 countries have signed such agreements so far. Bolton said the decision to pull out of the ICC was the "happiest moment" of his political career so far.
According to an article in The New Republic, Bolton was highly successful in pushing his agenda, but his bluntness has won him many enemies. "Iran's Foreign Ministry has called Bolton 'rude' and 'undiplomatic'".
Well, I certainly want someone IRAN approves of, personally.
He was part of the State Department's delegation to six-party talks on the North Korean nuclear program in 2003. He was removed from the delegation after describing Kim Jong-il as a "tyrannical dictator" and saying that, for North Koreans under Kim's rule, "life is a hellish nightmare." In response, a North Korean spokesman said "such human scum and bloodsucker is not entitled to take part in the talks." Congressional Democrats argued that Bolton's words at the time were undiplomatic and endangered the talks.
Another ringing endorsement!
"Individual liberty is the whole purpose of political life, and I thought it was threatened back then"-in 1964 during the Goldwater campaign which he describes as "my formative political experience"-"and I think it's threatened now.....I write, I give speeches, I appear on television-but the only way in contemporary American circumstances to make those issues as salient as they should be is to run for president."

Even a random bum off the street can read a teleprompter, so I'm not sure how we could do worse...

He would never raise enough funds. He's much too low profile.

True, Whoever runs is gonna have to have the right amount of cool under pressure and Great BIG Brassy Nads,,when needing to make a point,..Bolton was also instrumental in telling the UN where they could put their Small Arms Treaty before Obama and his crew of cowards came along and rekindled their desire to put that yoke of BS on the US.,,,

Re: UN Ambassador John Bolton for President 2012!
Hmm, yes. A loose cannon with anger control issues who wants to open up a few more war fronts. I'd vote for him for the fun of I guess. The UN is a joke, I think my 3 year old daughter could take them on and win.
If he attacked our real problems(debt, military-industrial complex, foreign entanglements, entitlements, etc.) with that intensity, well, maybe he'd be on to something.

They were lulled into submission by apathy,shiny new cars,TV's, and an in general propoganda campaign that all is well by the rich ,corporations and influential groups that bitched the loudest and got attention... Let's face it WE are the ones who let it happen....All seemed well and as long as it didn.t affect us and our little worlds we were content to let the elected run amok. It's time to yank the choke collar back and tighten up the leas on those that are supposed to work for us,,,After being bitten in the ass one too many times, we realize, (hopefully not to late) that we have made some very big mistakes, Bush, Clinton,Bush, OBAMA!! Healing it is gonna take some intense scrutiny and we are going to HAVE to do the work of Self governance or those powers that we so hate will get the upper hand and the US becomes the next Greece or other UE disaster area
