By Lina Bryce The Donald Trump train has been unstoppable during the 2016 presidential race. Much of what has helped to invigorate his support has been the unrelenting resistance from the Anti-Trump movements which began long before the first egg was thrown. It began the moment Trump uttered the words “I am officially running for president of the United States.” The moment he labelled Mexican immigrants drug dealers…
I support Gary Johnson for the LP nomination because I want a candidate who has experience and a solid record of making an impact. I realize he isn’t perfect and I don’t support some of his platform, but he is the best damn choice we have. Unlike the rest of the LP candidates, Johnson is…
Let’s get something straight: I think Idris Elba would make an awesome James Bond, I loved Daisy Ridley in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and I am not opposed to the premise of female Ghostbusters. I am not some alt-right reactionary who feels the need to take up intellectual arms in defense of white, heterosexual men….

Since Johnson came to national prominence in 2012 when he became the nominee of the LP, he has become the quintessential Libertarian and virtually…
The Libertarian Perspective By Lee Enochs Junior Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky will crush Jim Gray, his Democratic challenger and current Lexington mayor in the general election this Fall. This is my assessment after observing the current political climate in Kentucky that overwhelming voted for Donald Trump in the Presidential primary earlier this Spring and…
The Libertarian Perspective By Lee Enochs “For the best government is the least amount of government.” After watching last night’s debate between Libertarian presidential contenders Austin Petersen, Gary Johnson and John McAfee, I realized that Austin Petersen is the true heir to Ron Paul’s Libertarian legacy and not Johnson or McAfee.
