Beyond Two Evils

Many people dislike both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton -- for good reason: Both are power-hungry threats to democracy and rule of law.
But what can we do? What's the alternative?
Fortunately, one political party wants government to have a little less power. Former governors Gary Johnson and William Weld, the Libertarian Party's presidential and vice presidential nominee, don't have to be smarter or more moral than Clinton and Trump (though they are) because they want to reduce the power that government has over your life.
"I want government out of your pocketbook and out of your bedroom," says Weld in a recent Johnson/Weld campaign ad.
Sadly, the betting sites give the Johnson/Weld ticket practically no chance of winning.
