The honour is to serve and so on

He is one of only four actors to play seven different characters on “Star Trek,” including as a Klingon general, according to IMDb and Wikipedia.

And now John Hertzler will be on the Ulysses Town Board in Tompkins County, near Ithaca.

KlingonHertzler, 64, journeyed his way onto the local board after being nominated by Democrats last spring.

According to the Ithaca Times, Hertzler, known professionally as J.G. Hertzler, was introduced at the party’s caucus in August as the “the only Klingon general living in Ulysses.”

The paper said that Hertzler is an adjunct professor at Cornell University’s film and theater department. He once worked for the EPA in Washington, and now he opposes hydrofracking in New York.UDem_13_044.jpg

On his campaign website, Hertzler said, “The immense and under-reported risks of environmental destruction of land, air and water quality due to this particular drilling technique is not compatible with human habitation and must not be allowed to happen here.”

He could not be reached for comment Wednesday afternoon. No contact information was listed on his campaign website.

But his Wikipedia page has already been updated: “In September 2013, Hertzler announced his intention to run as a Democratic candidate for the town council of Ulysses, New York, and was elected to a two-year term on November 5.”

Well good for him.

Of course his embarrassing acting career -- dressing up in funny costumes and all that -- will no doubt preclude him going anywhere.

Oh then again...

He's General Martok. If he can rule the Klingon Empire, he can rule a town, city, or state.

So this is clearly another run of a minority ticket to appeal to the unwashed masses and strong human guilt left over from the last Terran-Klingon war!

The nerve!

The man is a war hero! He fought the Dominion alongside many Terrans in the Federation! The man helped liberate Cardassia and Bajor!

We have evidence that much of Martok's military service was falsified including his Vulcan Brass Heart! Martok is nothing more then a petaQ Qa'Hom. Elections. Authority is taken on the blade of the Bat'leth. Truly Kahless the Unforgettable weeps at this moment.
