Houston 08/11/20 9:50:38 PM #1:	Jill Stein and Gary Johnson received a somewhat decent amount of air time and coverage during 2016. Are there even 2020 Third Party candidates this year? If so, how come they aren't being talked about? I at least knew of both Third Party candidates in 2016. --- "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." - Dr Seuss <cite>Houston posted [p:943275316] in How come w...

GentlemanGamer 08/11/20 10:06:54 PM #7:	Covid has really harmed the chances of third parties, it's not easy to gather signatures to get on the ballot in a pandemic. Gary Johnson and Jill Stein were also just more well known figures than Jo Jorgensen and Howie Hawkins. If I could make a prediction, I think that the vote share for the libertarian candidate decreases compared to 2016, but the Green candidate likely improves slightly. <cite>GentlemanGamer posted [p:943275919] in How come w...

Jiek_Fafn 08/11/20 10:12:02 PM #9:	2016 was the best chance for 3rd party to make a splash since Ross Perot. Unfortunately, they couldn't do it. Now they're in a rebuilding phase.

Solid Snake07 08/11/20 10:14:57 PM #12:	There was very little coverage of Stein, and most of the coverage of johnson was "this idiot doesn't know what Aleppo is" as if trump wouldn't have fallen face first if asked a question about foreign policy with any level of nuance. --- "People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time" -Detective Rust Cohle <cite>Solid Snake07 posted [p:943276205] in How come w...

So what if Biden makes dumbass comments all the time such as you aint an authentic black person if you dont vote for him, black people arent diverse, poor kids are just as bright, or creeps up on women without their consent and did not even have the decency to apologize for his predatory behavior! Do you want Trump to win!? If your point is they both suck then I agree --- "People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time" -Detective Rust Cohle <cite>Solid Snake07 posted [p:943276619] in How come w...

Na, the point is for as much shit people gave Gary for sucking at geography...man, they give Biden and Trump a pass for all their fuck ups. Garys geography goof was something easily fixed with an adviser. Youre not going to fix either Biden or Trump for their ridiculous racist comments or predatory behavior towards women at their age. It was more than a geography goof, it was a foreign policy goof. But you're right that they went at him harder than they would have gone at a major candidate. Trump would have been equally as clueless and Hillary had actually been working a federal position of knowledge few are afforded. --- "People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time" -Detective Rust Cohle <cite>Solid Snake07 posted [p:943277277] in How come w...
