John Hunter is a left-wing candidate for Governor of the State of Liberty (in which Liberty City resides) in Grand Theft Auto IV. His opponent is Michael Graves, and their campaigns reach the in-game billboards, radio and Internet. The radio ads in particular are mostly slander-filled attack ads towards each other.
Biography
Hunter is an Army veteran and supports the troops. He was also a small-time actor in Vinewood before entering politics (which may have been based on Fred Dalton Thompson).
The Intelligent Agenda
On Public Liberty Radio, he calls himself a "Conservative-Liberal Democrat" (possibly a member of the Blue Dog Democrats, also a reference to British political parties Conservatives and Liberal Democrats). He discusses his views on healthcare, the economy, the war. On education, he is in favor of "breaking the teachers union...[and] buy balls and uniforms, then the books if we can afford them". He refers to the internet as "a series of tubes", a reference to Alaskan Republican senator Ted Stevens' "series of tubes" analogy. A separate Graves attack ad also claims Hunter wants to use the internet to charge people $5 for masturbating. He ends up spanking child prodigy Zachary Tyler, who was being arrogant and voiced evil views about population control.
