Name those Libertarians
Seventy percent of Americans don’t know who this year’s Libertarian candidates for president and vice president are. Even after Sunday night’s interview on 60 Minutes, a few claimed they were still unclear:
@60Minutes Mr Rogers on the left and Harrison Ford on the right?

Not everyone was laughing. Some viewers pleaded with the third-party candidates to reconsider their run:
@60Minutes @GovGaryJohnson You won't win and you'll inflict us with #TrumpPence16. Please don't for all mankind.

Give Me A Break! Go Away You Are Not Relevant!

In a close contest between two of the most unpopular major party candidates in recent memory, the Libertarians could be very relevant in the election outcome:
@60Minutes @GovGaryJohnson We want an honest candidate, Johnson is the only one left. #nevertrump #neverhillary #youin

Tune in tonight just to see how another candidate handles the issues. See how he speaks. See if he is someone who won't make you hang your head in shame at the thought of him running our nation!!!

@speed6pdb @Ben_Vorpahl A vote of conviction isn't wasted. It could be argued that voting for 2 historically unpopular candidates is wasted.

If Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, AND Gary Johnson don’t inspire voters at the polls, viewers reminded us there is still at least one more candidate to consider:
@60Minutes don't forget Jill Stein.

Gary Johnson and his VP Bill Weld are on 60 minutes tonight. Where is Jill Stein?
