The Stone for President campaign began in 1992 when he ran for president of the Read Center dormitory at Indiana University. In a hotly contested election, the slogan “He won’t burn the place down!” nearly carried him to victory. In an ironic turn of events, there was a small fire in Read Center in late 1992 and Stone was proven right.

His next foray in the political arena was in helping the student government campaign for the FPET party. His primary role was to make sure that its Vice Presidential candidate avoided any hint of scandal, brushed his teeth and showered regularly. With two of the three successfully achieved, Stone founded his media empire which, at its peak, was linked to the Indiana Daily Student, IUSA News, The Reader and The Daily Grind.

He continued his student government campaign work helping NWSF and DSBH to victory and famously humped a lawn chair to help LOUISSTONE.COM whipping boy, Bob Moats, take the crown as well.

After graduating in 1995, Stone moved to Chicago, Illinois and is now his own benevolent employer working as a Certified Public Accountant.

His beautiful wife, Cecilia, hails from Brazil and they have three criters (1 parakeet and 2 guinea pigs). Louis is greatful that she is not a citizen, and therefore, can’t vote.
