Marc Allan Feldman (October 10, 1959 - June 22, 2016) was an American physician, political commentator, and activist. Feldman was also a practicing physician. He had been employed at the Cleveland Clinic since August 1998. He was also the owner of a small business called Openivo, Inc. Feldman had also served as the president of the Ophthalmic Anesthesia Society.
On January 13, 2015 Feldman announced that he was running for President of the United States in the 2016 election as a Libertarian. His main goal in running was to address how much money influences the political system. He had called his campaign "Votes Not For Sale" and wouldn't take any donations over $5.
On June 22, 2016, an unknown woman called the front desk of Dr. Feldman's motel room at the America's Best Value Inn in Brook Park, Ohio and reported that he was unresponsive. He was pronounced dead at the scene a short time later. The cause of death was atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
