The Pelican’s Briefs is William H. Clark II’s self-published political manifesto, blending sharp institutional critique with elaborate conspiracy theory into an unofficial campaign platform. It reads less as policy proposal than as a raw, unfiltered record of one man’s war against the American establishment.”

Dispatches from the Fringe, Lucid and Otherwise

William H. Clark II has written a campaign platform for a country that does not yet exist — and may never. The Pelican’s Briefs oscillates with startling velocity between genuine insight and full-throttle conspiracy, from pointed critiques of Pentagon waste to warnings about Borg hive minds and resurgent Nazi cabals. Clark, the disaffected aerospace engineer as political candidate, writes with the unmediated intensity of someone who has concluded that the gatekeepers were wrong all along. Occasionally, devastatingly, he is correct. The madness and the lucidity are so thoroughly intertwined that separating them feels like the reader’s problem, not the author’s.
