April 1st? Is there something to be read in that date, or is it just me?

 

[Dianne]

Nice !

 

[RJ Liberty]

Thanks! Will be DVRing this.

Vermin Supreme is running for the LP nomination. He had better not be excluded. /glitterbombs-away! #TheBootStopsHere

 

[Matt Collins]

If this is promoted well (and it won't be), and if the candidates on the stage act like legitimate and serious candidates (probably won't be), then this could be a good thing. Lots of people are thinking outside the box right now and the anti-2party system angst is at an all time high. A debate like this could open up some conservative minds to the ideas of liberty. Again, that assumed that FNC doesn't bury it and that the candidates don't embarrass themselves.

Gary Johnson is so wacked out of his mind that he was on twitter trying to recruit Bill Kristol to the libertarian party! Does Gary know who Bill Kristol is?

Do you know who he is? More specifically, can you tell the scary neocon from the guy who toured with Robin Williams and Whoopi?

Stossel says in this article that the debate will air April 1 and also on April 8. I'm guessing the debate was 2 hours long then and the broadcast will be split up between those 2 dates.

A Better Choice for 2016
The Libertarian Party is selecting a nominee too.

John Stossel
March 30, 2016

Trump! Clinton! Is that all there is? No. Fortunately, we have other choices.

A recent poll shows that if the election were held today, 11 percent of Americans would vote for a Libertarian, former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson. That's surprising, since last election Johnson got just 1 percent of the vote.

This year, he's doing better, probably because Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton hold the highest percentage of "unfavorable" reactions from voters in more than 30 years. I assume the Libertarian total will go higher, since most poll respondents had no opinion about Johnson. They probably don't know who he is.

They can learn more by watching my Fox Business Network show April 1 and April 8. On those days, I'll air a debate among the three leading Libertarian candidates. They are Johnson, software businessman John McAfee and The Libertarian Republic founder Austin Petersen. The Party will choose its nominee at the Libertarian convention in Orlando, Florida, over Memorial Day weekend.

Noooooooooo, it is just you. /s

Are they perfect? No. Are they better than the Dems/Repubs? Easily.

 

[Feelgood]

This....should be interesting.

Stay tuned, after the break we find out what the candidates think is the greatest threat to our Country, drivers licenses or the prohibition on personal nuclear weapons!

I really liked that Peterson guy on the left. Never heard of him before. So....is there a way to actually vote in the libertarian primary?

Depends on which state you live in afaik. In some states you can vote for the Libertarian candidate on the statewide primary ballot. Otherwise its Caucus/Convention I guess.
