That's because he can't afford to fork out the $35,000 required to be a republican candidate.
Plus, he's only running from South Carolina. How is that going to work? Last I heard, that wasn't the state you needed for victory.
I enjoy his show, but this isn't really funny anymore.
UPDATE:
Never mind. The party's over.
COLUMBIA, South Carolina (CNN) -- The South Carolina Democratic Party voted Thursday to keep funnyman Stephen Colbert's name off the Democratic Primary ballot, according to the party's executive director.
Carol Fowler, chairwoman of the state Democratic Party and a member of the executive council, suggested Wednesday that Colbert did not meet the standard of national viability.

I believe those will be freely available now. I bet if you send $1 to his show with a stamped envelope, you'd get one back.

His presence in a campaign would be no more farcical than the guy that won the last two times.
Well, technically he didn't "win" the first time. I hate the damn electoral vote. It makes it completely pointless for me to bother voting non-Republican in a presidental election. The 8 S.C. votes will ALWAYS go to a Republican.
My campaign song:
The government totally sucks
You motherfucker
The government totally sucks
Ben Franklin was a rebel indeed
He liked to get naked while he smoked on the weed
He was a genius but if he was here today
The government would fuck him up his righteous A!
Now let me tell you something about the government (uh huh)
They're fucking up the environment (say what?)
They're taking all the fucking beautiful animals (yeah?)
And making them fucking extinct (oh no!)
The government totally sucks
You motherfucker
The government totally sucks
The government totally sucks
Cos the land of love and freedom,
Is just a baby's breath away
And if we hold hands together
We can bring back the USA
The USAAAAAA, yeah!
Bring back the USAAAA, yeah!
The fucking USAAAA yeah!
Bring back the US!
Government totally sucks!

That's how we elect in the U.S.
So, technically, he did win. Sorry. People keep jabbing that at Bush. This isn't the first president to do that. If we would have had no electoral college, then Aaron Burr (aka Buckshot Burr) would have been the third president. A murderer. Nice.
I am a republican, but I freely admit its time somebody took this job a little more seriously.
