Keisha Lanell Merchant

 


Keisha Lanell Merchant, June 2, 1974 -

VP candidate for Unaffiliated (aka Non Affiliated aka No Party Affiliation) (2016)

Running mate with nominee: Laio Chantelle Morris (b. 1968)
Popular vote: 11 (0.00%)
Electoral vote: 0/538

The campaign:

Laio Morris of Richmond, Va. filed with the FEC on Dec. 21, 2015 as an "Unaffiliated (Write In)" candidate for President. According to her Facebook page, she began her campaign in Feb. 2014.

Morris' campaign webpage was headlined:

Laio THE Manager,
for
President?  YASSSSSSSSS!

Her platform:

CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS
I recognize the Constitution, The Bill of Rights, and The Declaration of Independence. Do they ALL need to be rewritten? Perhaps. Let's survey the PEOPLE.

EDUCATION
Every single child should be privy to the best education possible. I promote advanced education for anyone capable of learning at a faster pace. Students should be required to learn at least 5 different languages including English, Spanish and French. Teachers' salaries definitely need to increase dramatically. I support students being required to wear uniforms coast to coast, tastier healthier meals including breakfast, lunch and snacks, time for meditation/prayer, laptops for low income households, book bags with wheels, coats and lessons being streamed live during inclement weather.

ENERGY POLICY
Disconnecting someone's utilities due to non-payment should be banned. Alternate energy sources are a must: solar, wind, water, possibly the conversion of organic wastes and biofuels, along with the use of coal, oil and natural gas.  There's no free lunch but there IS FREE ENERGY--let's use it!

ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
I support clean air, let's GO GREEN!  And let's clean up our water supply!  Too much lead and other cancer causing agents.

FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY
Responsible budgeting is paramount. Cost effectiveness and critical need should play a key role. If our country is currently spending $3.72 trillion on federal programs and services a year and only generating $2.165, we must fix the problem.

FOREIGN POLICY
I support being neighborly; however, sometimes it's best to mind your own business, whether it's next door or abroad. While it's good to have allies, can anyone really be trusted? Let's make sure the US has everything it needs and is well protected and then worry about other countries. We can consult and share, no problem--take care of home first.

GOVERNMENT & ETHICS
Our government should be for the PEOPLE--not just those who funded their campaigns and retirement packages. Elected officials and lobbyists can not create and control situations that only benefit them.

JOB CREATION
Jobs should be offered to American citizens first---BOTTOM LINE! Outsourcing should be a last resort.  If they can't vote in America why should America be their source of income!  Take care of home first!

NATIONAL SECURITY
Border security is a must, but not for the purpose of keeping desperate people out who want a better way of life.  The illegal importation and exportation of deadly drugs and weapons of mass destruction should be prohibited. Human trafficking, black market economy and terrorism is NOT ALLOWED. All information regarding our safety should be considered.

PERSONAL HEALTHCARE
Everyone should be entitled to receive medical/dental/vision care--it should be based on income. Holistic/alternative medicine should be the choice of the person receiving the service provided. Citizens must be proactive.

SOCIAL ISSUES
This is a tricky one.  A women's body is just that--her body. While I do not encourage abortion, I know some women get raped and some women's lives are compromised by pregnancy. Ultimately, GOD IS THE JUDGE! I DO NOT SUPPORT THE DEATH PENALTY! The LGBT (lesbians, gays, bi-sexuals and trans-gender) citizens should have the same rights as anyone else.

TAX POLICY
Let's bury the name and change it to CONVENIENCE FEES! Let's base these fees on income.

"PROJECT FRESH START"
*$5,000/MONTH (supplemental income for those who are working, in school, has a business/wants a business , disabled or handicapped--certifications in consumer counseling, budgeting, investments and money management required)
*ABOLISH THE CREDIT SYSTEM (equifax, transunion, experian)
*DEBT ELIMINATION (wipe all credit clean)
*MINIMUM WAGE INCREASE (raise minimum wage to $15/hour, WORK LESS, GET PAID MORE.  including inmates-why should citizens foot the bill for criminals-why should the prison system and all of it's affiliates continue to get rich at our expense?)

THIS ADVERTISEMENT WAS PAID FOR AND AUTHORIZED BY LAIO MORRIS. FOOD FOR THOUGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*legalization of cannibas
*pet as dependents
*no suspensions of drivers or professional licenses when child support is owed (HTF can anybody pay their child support if their right to drive is suspended-LET'S BE REAL)
*innocent until proven guilty
*violent people should not be allowed to live with non violent people (they really need their own island)


Meanwhile, in Apr. 2014 Keisha L. Merchant (aka Marshawnt Keyshay aka Coach Kay) announced she was running for President. Like Morris, she also used social media as her main campaign device for her Diversity Management Party. She presented a mixture of philosophies that included anime, Christianity, New Age (note the following reference to Louise Hay), game theory, and a promotion of her coaching business Miaa Tipx Corps, the latter of which was a central theme in her platform as presented on her campaign blog--

What I will bring to the table if elected with my Administration Team, Gift giving Ambassadors and Volunteer Task Force that will work along side with Congress and the U.S. Government among other allies globally:

To turn poverty into paradise through building our infrastructures by the focus on these issues:

Commerce using my system in Miaa X Corps to build poverty stricken areas with a new banking system that consist of a trading system called the giving system and store house. People in each community are given a distribution system that make sure each population is sheltered, fed, clothed, trained, and covered with legal services, medical assistance, and education that will keep each community equal though recognized all communities are not equal. This banking system will be the liason to the employer and the employee as an advocate for economic justice and economic regulation, to file complaints, grievances, and stand in the gap by giving access to services through gift giving. This system will be built by trained volunteers who want to give back to the community. All resources will be donated, recycled and rebuilt.

Defense using my system of Miaa X Operations. This operations will build a special service team that will be the negotiators. Trained staff of volunteers that will be called into duty to go into the global communities to build relationships with leaders, negotiate treaties of union. These treaties will be enforced through negotiations, having discussions at the round table. Using the theory of the Double Swing Communications Model by, Muneo Yoshikawa, Each change agent and agency will be a volunteer service in this operations to overcome the five dysfunctions of a team, the theory of decay, Patrick Lencioni. They will build by coaching, inspiration and motivation to use the techniques of transformative leadership to know as a situational leadership approach mix with style leadership approach into theories of managing teams. Dictators or any tyrants that cannot change by laying down resistance to the global initiative of The State of Union to be unionized through the model of care ethics by Patricia Hill Collins. The enforcement will be through discourse and conversations as to the model of Muneo Yoshikawa strategies of success and Maslow’s Hierarchy, motivational model of success.

Education using my system of Miaa X Education: to build the poverty stricken areas and wealth systems cross training for rehabilitation into diversity management. This model is called Judment in managerial decision making by Bazerman and Moore, that will include theories of overcoming heuristics and bias, and how to be an effective decision maker. This cross training system will revisit all communities to educate and re-educate all citizens through the virtual reality experience into how to use gaming and simulation to build the mind, expand the horizons of each decision maker. This process will be an incentive program to give tax breaks to all citizens who participate, and those who do not have taxes a stipend to do the programs annually. If the stipends cannot come through the government programs, this will be solicited among the Gift Giving Ambassadors to adopt the program.

Health and Human Services using my system called Miaa X, the Phoenix Ways System: This is the system that will use alternative medicine breakthroughs to set up clinics, and camps as a holistic approach into health and wellness. It will be an incentive plan for medical doctors to expand their horizons and the communities to build their skills in finding more ways to build longevity, and increase immortality through decreasing mortality rates through alternative medicine as a second hand system. This will train all healers to work in this system as an alternative approach to the health industry as a Holistic Therapy system for those who cannot afford the health care system, and choose a natural approach to heal, restore, regenerate and rebuild their lives. Louise Hay will be one of many experts used as a model for this system. Technology created for this system will be used to build this second hand system to compliment the other systems, but a free access to all these systems under my Administration season. And encouraged beyond my terms if not elected or fulfilled terms as a leader.

Homeland Security, using my system called Miaa Tipx the Avatar System, will be the second hand agency to cross train the Homeland Security system. This system will be an auditing system to the Homeland Security system. This system will work under cover to research and investigate any practices, policies and procedures that will cause weak, defective and decay in the lives of sustainable living in each household. It will not be used to socially control but as a recommendation, it will be used to give free access to strengthen all areas of safety and security systems in our communities at large. These recommendations will be exposed by a third party to separate the two entities from disclosure. This will allow citizens to have a track record and projections of Red zone behavior, Red zone situations, as such, each person have the opportunity, and free access to be defensive drivers of their own future. It is the second hand system to the Homeland Security system that give citizens access to their own defense systems through knowledge. Knowledge is power. Those who do not have access to training and resources to protect their own livelihood. This system will also build agencies in these At-Risk communities to give alternative strategies for safety and security for its residents.

Justice using my system called Miaa X Restorative Justice System will be the second hand agency that will be volunteered task force to become officials and advocates: representatives of those who do not have the skills to do the research, have access to justice, and submit proposals, plans, strategies, and step by step operational implementation structures that give all citizens access to restorative justice. The route to change management and diversity management rather punishment and capital punishment. The access to overcome dysfunctions and the opportunity to develop, grow and evolve from one location to the next location. This system is designed to send in professional, trained researcher professionals that build daily operational values working with their clients to ensure rehabilitation, track records of their work, activities, and the access to the right resources to manage their lives under regulation, so when integration happens, the client will have a higher percentage of success rather failure. On all levels of behavior and science of behavior, neuroscience will be one of many models used to rehabilitate, give alternative therapy and integrate interactive approaches into each client requesting restorative justice as a means to change and management of self-autonomy, self-actualization and self-organization. Cases like Trayvon will not happen using this system.

Labor using my system called Miaa Tipx X Corps using this apprentice section approach model will allow all citizens to have access to job training, coach, and teams as support systems for employers and job opportunities. Never again, will any citizen have to work under a union or any one without the support structure equivalent to the best support structures in comparison. This alternative system will allow each community have free access to resources and support systems to ensure equality and equal distribution for their labor and volunteer work. Membership to this Corps system will provide free access to intervention practices of professionals as a liaison, mentor and professional representative that will use all documentation as a track record and published work to expose all activities that are considered defective and Red zone materials that employers are ignoring. The client will be trained to overcome any dysfunction and defective approach by becoming Green Zone teams.

Issues of the State using the Miaa X system that allow the C3R3 System of a conflict resolution matrix for all states to be regulated through a volunteer task force that will audit their processes, practices and policies, report it publicly and become a neighborhood watch for all states and their leadership teams to keep communities healthy, sustainable and free access to Maslow’s Hierarchy system model of motivation by each household. It will send recommendations, warnings, and caution notices while building a case of justice and claim. This will allow the connection for State and Federal to work in the Green Zone networking system for all affairs to cooperate instead of defects of competition. The Federal will also be monitored and researched by this volunteer task force, neighborhood watch to keep all systems in balance through models of Maslow’s Hierarchy as a needs assessment one formula.

Issues of Interior using the Forestry, Recreation, Resource Management system called Miaa Tipx Ops as to urban eco-systems and urban management that allows a second hand operation to systematic regulate stronger alliances with Native Governments to rebuild unions and restoration treaties of sovereignty and land management, waste management and beautification of all lands, giving free access to all residents under proper technology for security and safety with proper techniques of alliances with all tribal communities. It is the operation system that work along side with all departments and governments to ensure conferences and initiatives that keep our communities in Green Zone behaviors. (Which is a collective network that ensures 100% healthy sustainable, resourceful distributive network support system that allows people to develop at their own pace, while giving access to support, creative resources and maintenance of all resources for access to all populations.)

Issues of Treasury using Miaa Tipx X Investments is a system used along side as a secondary system which is a volunteer task force that will build the budget, build marketing and advertisement strategies, communication systems, technology to rebuild our Green Zone world that allow more productivity and healthy stewardship of our financial(s) paying off debt, negotiating better cost and pricing, and distribution of access to capital through ending low access to bidding wars. Keeping a task force teams to be a neighborhood watch to find all corporations and government systems accounting practices, and policies of spending and regulating spending through research and reporting to the public on access to defensive survival guides that will be readily available via film, video and digital. Secure data bases that report all documentation of research and investigations and advocacy for policy change, law enforcement and legal structures to manage regulations and delegations for Red Zone behaviors.

Issues of Transportation using Miaa Tipx Technology and Transportation systems that will build innovative futuristic collaborations for all populations to have access to better communities that are built with a better blueprint of the States transportation system through research, collection of data and transformation phases to bring all states as one community with many levels and access through safe and secure transportation systems and technology that will be an addition to the car industry, train, metro and bus, airplane and other formulas of transportation from each location. This system is a reporting system for all documentation in my Administration public forum along with other forums as a third part non-partisan access to all information that will be unbiased. Main mission to give access to a collection of all data reported.

Issues of Agriculture, using Miaa Tipx Green Ag Living System will be another second hand agency that will be a volunteer task force that will collect all data from all properties and businesses that do our agriculture to investigate practices, policies, daily operational value within the internal and external culture whether public as to environmental injustices or to privately, labor injustices that create our new world resources. This resource, people management system of the largest industry will focus on better practices, multilevel and multidimensional access to technology, management and resource management, organization and distribution systems that decrease waste and increase access to all populations without the reckless approach to stewardship of all environments. Providing better practices for preserving earth, the planets as a neighboring citizen and access to the universe.

Issues of Veteran Affairs using Miaa Tipx XOP defense will be another volunteer services that will train and provide access to soldiers and their families communities and those who have access to intelligence of military, martial arts, defense, into the world of global initiative of stronger technology, communication systems and negotiation systems into strategy and global green zone structures and infrastructures as hydro galaxies. Finding the balance into equality and equity using better strategies to meet the demand of defense and freedom. These advocates and representatives will provide contract opportunities for Veterans and their communities also will provide access to documentation for building cases, grievances, hardship and other mediums that need support structures for these communities in abilities.

These volunteer task forces will be commissioned as officials of the Global Initiative to Restore citizens and the America Dream by making it accessible to all communities and regulations through documentation, reporting, and uncensored. It will be the Administration that work beside the government and our American Policy to ensure effectiveness and efficiency to the untimely accounts of our ever changing policies, practices and procedures. It will be called the Double Shift Access System, as to the Woman status in the household. The mother and the professional status. This system will become the double shift model for the country working beside my Administration Team to build a stronger world while my leadership transform through one mission, transforming our poverty into paradise. No one should be left behind. We all were born to sit at the table of restorative justice, happiness, health and security, safety and unity. Now it is my opportunity to build the country that serves all communities equally.

I have considered my Presidential Platform as Non-Partisan and Independent. I will not be running as a Democrat or Republican, any party but Diversity Management Party. This will allow people to know that we can all participate, engage, and develop our lives with one solid technique that is Green Zone behavior and practices through uncensored reporting, support structures that give equal distribution using the social evolution matrix for adaptive management systems that I have created through the Miaa Tipx Model of Leadership and Influence, along with Organizational Leadership structures integrated and interactive operations. Miaa Tipx is a mathematical formula that was designed by my professional research and development designing properties. This is an intellectual property that will build our country through equality mathematics and infinite processing mathematics.

My platform is 100% virtual reality, telecommunications and 100% mass communications, new media and filming, broadcasting. 100% virtual reality world tours. It will all be documentation of all my speeches, appointments and interactions will all be documentation for public use. Access starts with uncensored, uncut and raw real time recording. In order to make a difference it must begin with the Head of Affairs candidates. (May 26, 2014)

My decisions as a President if selected will be based on the readiness of change we are as a people and team with leadership to leadership model of equality, access to resources, management and good stewardship, then the right decisions can be made in our performance and access to sustainability. Until then, my decisions or any candidate decisions will be defective and ineffective for we did not have access to excellent standards, quality control and proper treatment to all populations in our American Dream.

At some point in 2016 it looks like Merchant withdrew from the Presidential race and became Morris' running-mate.

The Morris/Merchant ticket were registered as write-ins in Alaska, Idaho, Illinois, Montana, and West Virginia. 10 of their 11 reported votes came from Illinois.

It appears the ticket was headed for the 2020 election as well, with Merchant listed as the VP in 2017 (aka "The Kalo Team") in their promotional material. However, Morris and Merchant seemed to have experienced some sort of disagreement by 2018 as Merchant was definitely running for President on her own, again. In July 2019 Merchant had announced, "I am running for President in the elections for the rest of my life."

Election history:
2016 - US President (Diversity Management Party) - withdrew?
2020 - US President (Diversity Management Party) - defeated
2024 - US President (Diversity Management Party) - pending

Other occupations: author, life coach, motivational trainer

Notes:
PNW trivia alert!! Merchant seems to be a resident of Oregon, in the Albany area.
