Yesterday Brian Doherty blogged about the eternal recurrence of the third party. Meanwhile over at RonPaul.com, they're running a running mate poll for 2012. (The poll doesn't specify whether we are talking about a major party run or a third party run.)
The list is pretty dispiriting, simply as a catalog of prominent libertarian/libertarian-friendly/libertarian-tolerant politicos (although several on the list may not even meet those basic criteria).
For a fun bonus activity, tally up the number of truthers and/or birthers on the list in the comments section.
If Ron Paul runs for President in 2012, who should be his running mate?
* Adam Kokesh
* Rand Paul
* Michael Badnarik
* John McCain
* Lew Rockwell
* Michele Bachmann
* Mitt Romney
* Alan Grayson
* Michael Bloomberg
* Cynthia McKinney
* Jim DeMint
* Pat Buchanan
* Jesse Ventura
* Sarah Palin
* Gary Johnson
* Mel Watt
* Mark Sanford
* Glenn Beck
* Mike Huckabee
* Alex Jones
* Dennis Kucinich
* Andrew Napolitano
* Chuck Hagel
* Wayne Allyn Root
* Lou Dobbs
* Other (specify below)
* Peter Schiff
* Chuck Baldwin
FYI: At the moment, Andrew Napolitano and Peter Schiff are the front runners.
