Poll question: Notable Third Party Candidates only - who would you vote for President?
Edited on Mon May-09-05 07:16 PM by LynneSin
Imagine that in 2008 the only candidates you can choose from are former 3rd party candidates. Who would you pick?? BTW, 3rd Party candidates that eventually became president (Fillmore, Van Buren T. Roosevelt) DO NOT COUNT!!!!

Here's a list of the most notable 3rd party candidates

Edit note: This is not in support of any 3rd party candidate. Just a fun and open discussion about the history of 3rd party candidates. I'm voting democratic straight ticket in 2008!
