It’s been a strange election season. One that’s featured some of the most unpopular candidates in history getting top billing by mainstream parties, and people fleeing their respective parties, and meeting together to support 3rd party alternatives.
And so you have the case of Gary Johnson, who has achieved a remarkable amount of support despite both the mainstream parties and the mainstream media doing its level best to pretend he’s not there. Funding and membership for the Libertarian party has gone up in droves, and with that has come nods from figures such as Glenn Beck, Marvin Bush, the creators of South Park, and at least rumors that Jeb Bush was flirting with the idea.
At one point, Mitt Romney was involved in the rumors himself when it came to a Johnson endorsement. While nothing officially came of it, Romney has spoken once again on the subject in a tweet of the Libertarian candidate, saying that he would love to see Johnson on the debate stage.
