Will the Libertarian Party actually make a difference this year?

[Adam White]

Well, it depends on what the positions we share are (are they small things or important things), the degree in difference in those positions between parties B and C and, finally, party B's track record.

Okay, I'll stop now.  You're just splitting hairs. Small things, big things, competence, who has the best looking candidates, it doesn't matter.  Party B is the one you like better; the one that if someone was holding a gun to your head and said "either pull the lever for B or C or I'll blow your brains out" you would pick.

Of course I'd pick B if someone was pointing a gun at my head. I'm not stupid.

Who would you choose between Hitler or Stalin? Technically, Stalin had more views that were in line with mine (though his track record - and the track record of his party on actually delivering on those view was patchy, at best). But I could never vote for Hitler or Stalin. Chamberlain for me, I guess.

I had to look...

Until I wrote this article, no experienced political analyst would doubt that in 1932 Jews voted at least 2 to 1 for the Communist Party.

Which in this story as it turned out, was the same as voting FOR Hitler!

Interesting, though that's not the same. It was a parliamentary election and the Communists got a bunch of seats. As did the Social Democrats (themselves descended from communists).  And the Nazis didn't get a majority - so Hitler and his cronies didn't get into power. Hitler ended up being appointed Chancellor by the President, which was the first step in the Nazis gaining power.

That's got to be the first time someone on Metro Jacksonville has linked to a site that carries the tagline "Fighting White Genocide".

You're like the Marco Rubio of Metro Jax.

Too far Adam, too far

Let's try this another way finehoe. You say a vote for Gary or Jill is a vote for Hillary or Trump. I like Gary Johnson, so who do I vote for if I want him to win?

My hypothetical example states "it is universally acknowledged that there is no way Candidate A can win". If you truly believe Mr. Johnson can beat the other candidates in this election, then by all means vote for him.
