Zoltan Istvan – Media and American Politics

Zoltan Istvan has transitioned from being a National Geographic reporter to real estate mogul, and now a science fiction author who has his sights set on the presidency. Istvan, whose name sounds like that of a science fiction novel protagonist, has ideas for the nation and humanity that live up to the futuristic grandeur of his given name. He is just one of several bold individuals running against the current President of the United States in the Republican primary. Despite the unlikelihood of unseating a sitting president as a minor candidate, Istvan is determined to become president, if not in 2020 then at least in the next twenty years.
