President Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney sparred last night in their second of three debates. Today, in a two-hour special, we expand the debate by including the voices of three presidential candidates shut out of the official debate. We are joined by Jill Stein of the Green Party, Constitution Party nominee Virgil Goode, and Justice Party candidate Rocky Anderson. We re-air parts of last night’s presidential debate, pausing the videotape to give third-party candidates a chance to respond to the same questions put to the major-party candidates.

Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein and vice-presidential candidate Cheri Honkala were arrested Tuesday as they attempted to enter the grounds of the presidential debate site at Hofstra University. Like other third-party candidates, Stein was blocked from participating in the debate by the Commission on Presidential Debates, which is controlled by the Republican and Democratic parties. Stein and Honkala were held for eight hours, handcuffed to chairs.

The Libertarian Party nominated former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson for President of the United States.
Johnson briefly ran for the Republican Party nomination late last year, but decided to seek the LP nomination by Dec. The nominee’s biography can be found at garyjohnson2012.com/about

As Obama and Romney faced off for the last time before the general election, we once again broke the sound barrier by inserting Jill Stein of the Green Party and Rocky Anderson of the Justice Party into the discussion. Before a live audience in San Rafael, California, we aired the Obama-Romney debate and paused the tape to give Stein and Anderson a chance to respond in real time to the same questions put to the major-party candidates.

Gary Johnson continues his long shot against-the-odds campaign for the U.S. presidency, with a new internet ad that hits hard on the issue of war and peace.

The new ad for the Libertarian Party candidate is so simple and direct, that it's almost staggering in today's political climate.

It’s the stuff politicos call "red meat".

The Libertarian Party has done it again.

In Las Vegas this weekend, Libertarian Party national delegates nominated former New Mexico governor Gary Johnson as their representative to challenge Barack Obama for the Presidency, leaving Ron Paul as the only libertarian left in the race.

To say the least, those that truly believe in the non-aggression principle are disappointed with the third largest political party's choice to challenge the statist status quo.

Green Party Presidential candidate Jill Stein and running mate Cheri Honkala were arrested Oct 16th after trying to gain access to the prsidential debates but lacking proper "credentials". They were held for 8 hours, handcuffed to a metal chair because the authorities didn't want them "wandering around." Staff with the candidates were told that they too would be arrested if they continued to wait on site for the candidate's release.

Facebook has exploded with “write-in Ron Paul” movements. However, write-ins are rarely counted and many states have banned write-ins.

Liberty activists are not likely to vote Republican if Ron Paul isn’t the nominee because they are morally and ideologically averse to just about everything the Republican Party stands for including endless wars, big spending, mountains of debt, corporate welfare queens and chronic assaults on civil liberties.

Gary Johnson says he's been vetted by the Libertarian Party for the Libertarian presidential nomination.
