Is he expecting to get a vacation home out of this?

Why not tbe Green Party or Reform Party, or, dare I say it, the CPUSA while you’re at it, Mr. Chaffee?

A singularly more unimpressive individual would be hard to find.

I think our Libertarian brethren believe our number one problem is we’re giving up too much freedom.

Which the Democrats want to take away from us for our own good.

The Libertarian Party hasn't nominated a candidate who was actually a libertarian in years. So, why not?

When asked a series of “Yes and No” questions by Lisa Kennedy on her Fox Business show... Chafee faltered. Refused to even address her “can American citizens own AR-15s”... he changed the subject to deficits and debt... proving he’s no Libertarian, he’s still just a weaselly Liberaltarian. Also showing the Left will infiltrate and seek to take over all areas of political thinking. ALL must bow and worship the Leftist idol!

I can’t wait to taste this bowl of lukewarm spit! How about Lowell Weiker as his VP candidate? Where can I send my money?

I’ll host a warm spit party at my home with the candidate on hand to meet the guests.

At least he’s someone people have heard of. That’s important to the LP if you look at who they have nominated recerntly i.e Gov. Gary Johnson.

The other choice might be Rep. Justin Amash, the independent congressman from Michigan. He could dent Trump victory there.

Saw his name and thought I was going to read his obituary. Amazing how many of these career politicians will never stop and campaign with one foot in the grave.

He’s been a Republican, a Democrat and a Libertarian. HE doesn’t even know what he believes...

Let him take the Worlds Smallest Political Quiz and see where he comes out. If he can't even come out unequivocally for the 2nd Amendment, he's no "libertarian". Personally, I'm fairly libertarian minded in my political leanings, though I think the official open borders position of the LP is lunacy.
