Quran-burning Pastor Terry Jones is apparently putting down the matches and entering the presidential race.

A press release from his organization Stand Up America Now simply declared Wednesday: “Announcing: Dr. Terry Jones for President.”
Jones, who serves as pastor of a Gainesville, Fla., church with a reported membership of under 100 people, gained infamy in 2010 when he declared he would burn a number of Qurans on the ninth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. Though Jones and his church were relatively obscure, media reports of “International Burn a Quran Day” spurred riots around the Muslim world, some resulting in deaths. Under international pressure to cancel his Quran-burning extravaganza, Jones backed down, but ultimately did burn a Quran earlier this year after holding a trial of the book at his church. Britain’s Daily Mail reported only 30 people were in attendance.
