The Third Man - Bob Barr's Libertarian run for the White House.

advertisement

A good piece about Bob Barr and why he is running as a Libertarian candidate for president, his concerns about the direction in which the country is headed and why he quit the Republican Party and left the culture wars behind.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

I have liked Bob Barr for some time, though I did not always agree with him. He is well worth listening too, again, even if you do not agree with everything. It is really unfortunate that the nature of our political duopoly relegates Barr and other worthwhile candidates to the margins.

    As a Barack Obama supporter I strongly encourage every unhappy GOP libertarian to vote for Bob Barr. Please. Esp in Ohio and Florida. And thank you!
