Libertarian

Libertarian Party

  • Steve Kubby: High profile Libertarian activist and candidate for California Governor in 1998 and Vice President in 2000, he helped write and pass California's medical marijuana law.[10]
  • Robert W. Milnes: New Jersey activist advocating a "progressive alliance" of Libertarians and Greens. [11]
  • George Phillies: Professor of physics at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, former candidate for the U.S. Senate (1996) and U.S. House (1998) from Massachusetts; Libertarian activist and 2006 candidate for chair of the Libertarian National Committee. [12]
  • Christine Smith: Writer; public speaker; progressive activist; recipient of 2002 Outstanding American Award and 2000 Amigas Peace Prize. [13]
  • Doug Stanhope: Comedian and former host of Comedy Central's The Man Show. Though the tone of his campaign is comical, it could very well provide him votes, and he might find influence similar to Pat Paulsen in 1968. [14].

As with all parties there are numerous speculations of candidates running, including Karen Kwiatkowski [15], Wayne Allyn Root [16], Mary Ruwart [17] who is being petitioned to run by supporters, and 2002 Wisconsin Libertarian gubernatorial candidate Ed Thompson. [18]
