    Not to win the election of course, but to get a substantial portion of the vote? Say 10 to 20% even? I sure hope so. I can't see myself ever voting for Trump or Hillary. Gary Johnson's platform looks pretty good to me. Sure there are a couple of hair brained ideas in there that go a bit too far, but nothing as crazy as some of Trump's ideas like getting Mexico to build a wall for us that Mexico doesn't even want.:crackup:

    If you are like me and don't like the choice between Hillary and Trump, check out Johnson and / or the Libertarian party.

    A vote for Johnson is a vote for Hillary.

    Unfortunately this is the same horse that gets trotted out every election to ensure that a 3rd party does not get too strong and ruin everything for the establishment...

    Remember Ron Paul? He seemed great until the Jesus shit came out and everyone realized he was really just a Republican without the DOD chip in his frontal lobes.

    Registrations for the Libertarian party are way up this year, R and D are both way down. That's encouraging, people are slowly wising up to the fucking the 2 party's have been giving them.

    Wouldn't signing up as a Libertarian make you well, not a Libertarian? :D

    No need. The Lib candidate traditionally plays the role of the anti-establishment candidate. We already have that in Trump.

    A vote for a 3rd party is not a vote for Hillary. If I had to chose between the two main party candidates I would unfortunately pick the democrat for the first time in my presidential voting life. Fortunately I have a 3rd choice and don't have to pick between the two major parties!

    The only way a 3rd party vote isn't a vote for Killary is if Bernie runs on the granola socialist ticket. Otherwise it's a vote that would have surely gone republican.

    Anyone who thinks there is a third choice is kidding themselves.

    Perhaps not for those of us residing in the blue States, but in the [purple??] States where it may be 50/50 and it trades back n forth every Presidential race.....how is it NOT a waste?

    You, sir, are a crackhead if you think Donald is anywhere near as bad as Hillary or Bernie.....you'd have to be a borderline retard too not to see the tax differences in all 3 of their tax plans, let's try not to forget what effects another Liberal SC Justice would have on this nation or TWO is more likely within the next 4-8 yrs... ahhhh forget it, not regurgitating what's been said a million times, if you didn't get it then you'll never get it.
