The Republicans have picked their nominee, and the Democrats are well on their way, but it isn’t too late for third party and independent candidates to throw their hats into the ring. That’s why I’d like to take a moment and make a bold suggestion:
ALTON BROWN FOR PRESIDENT
That’s right - the Food Network’s Alton Brown […]
It may be difficult to tell whether the Pansexual Peace Party is a joke, or a serious foray into electoral politics.
For instance:
The party appears to have 3 official websites (my favorite is linked above), but two of them include a rather thoughtful, short anti-Libertarian essay by the party’s founder, Reverend Jimi Freidenker.
Reverend Freidenker refers to […]
The US Marijuana Party’s name says it all. This single-issue party is dedicated to the legalization of marijuana and the cessation of the War on Drugs. Specifically, the party seeks…
“to remove all penalties for adults 18 and over who choose to consume cannabis in a responsible manner”
“an end to the war on productive and otherwise […]

During the next few weeks, I plan to occasionally highlight a little-known third party that has endorsed a candidate for President.
The first third party is one you’ve probably never of - the United Fascist Union.
Although most of us immediately associated fascism with racism and Nazism, the UFU’s director and presidential candidate Jack Grimes disavows white […]
We all know that the US has a two-party system. The Republicans and Democrats dominate our political system at all levels. But few people know why our two-party system persists, especially given the perennial discontent with the perceived similarity of the two major parties. There are basically 3 reasons why third-parties have such a difficult […]
Because politics is big business.
