Oh really. How come they apply to my candidate and not yours? (For the record, Bob Barr is NOT my candidate.) Would you be saying that if only Barack Obama were affected by this? Be honest.
I believe every major Party candidate should automatically be represented on the ballot.
Ballot access has been used to drain precious resources from third parties.
I have always supported total automatic ballot access to ALL legitimate political parties.
So Barr's little stunt is going to cost the Libertarian Party in the future since it is a compromise of their principles, and they are suppose to be the Party of principle.
The only problem is that this isn’t the matter at issue. The matter at issue is that minor parties are not receiving equal protection of the laws. “Major” parties are, as usual, being favored. They are treated one way, and so-called “minor” parties are treated another.
