Zsa Zsa Gabor's eighth husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, has announced at least part of his plan to save California from bankruptcy if he is elected governor: Legalize marijuana, prostitution and Cuban cigars -- and tax them to the hilt.
Prince Frederic (65) flew to Sacramento on Wednesday to file his candidate papers, according to an Associated Press report. He is running as an Independent. His opponents are Republicans Meg Whitman and Steve Poizner and the presumed Democratic candidate, Attorney General Jerry Brown.
Considering the economic mess incumbent Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger will leave in the state -- and Brown left behind as mayor of Oakland -- the Independent party could fare well in an election.
In a state that loves celebrities, Prince Frederic is a classic. In addition to being Zsa Zsa's spouse, he reportedly was one of Anna Nicole Smith's lovers.
He first announced his intent to run for governor in January.

Thank God! Its about time we get realistic! If you estimate a city the size of Los Angles with a hypothetical estimate of 10,000 escorts/sex workers whom if legalized would be required to obtain a work card yearly (estimation based on Nevada's fee's) $40.00 a year, business license $200.00 yearly, $65.00 monthly medical card (estimation based on Nevada's fee's) this would revenue a total of a little over 10 million a year and that is without calculating taxes.
That works for me!
Thank you Prince Frederic von Anhalt!
