You thought you knew! Well… there’s John McCain; Barack Obama. Hopefully; you know there story well.
But are you familiar with Charles Baldwin; Robert Barr; Cynthia McKinney; Ralph Nader, Róger Calero and Gloria La Riva and write-in such as Alan Keyes? Forget the Democrats and Republicans. What about the Green Party; The Socialist Worker’s Party; The Libertarian Party; The Independence Party and the Communist Party of the USA!? Who said America was only a two-party state?
What about those ‘third parties? Watch a debate from October 23 on C-SPAN 2 although Cynthia McKinney and Bob Barr did not participate.
Some political humor from The Simpsons!
