His name is Virgil Goode.
He's running for President on the ticket of the Constitution Party.
For everyone accusing him of being a "spoiler" for Obama, you can count about two or three accusing him of being an "anti-Muslim bigot." In this interview (linked below), he answers both charges.
More to the point, he lays out his positions on the issues:
Immigration: a moratorium on all immigration visas until unemployment dips below 5 percent, and probably an end to "diversity visas."
Foreign policy: require a formal declaration of war before sending troops anywhere. (Presumably, "Authorizations for the Use of Military Force" do not satisfy him. Congress should instead say, "Be it declared on the authority of the Congress of the United States, that the United States is in a state of war with such-a-country, until such time as such-a-set-of-conditions are met.")
Taxes: replace the income tax with a national sales tax, or a flat tax. (Not both.)
International trade: repeal any agreement that fosters "outsourcing" of jobs to other countries.
Pro-life.
Anti-gun control.
English as the official language.
Term limits for Senators and congressmen.
Marriage = one man and one woman.
To achieve the last two, he would amend the Constitution if necessary.
The question before the house: aside from whether he would win, lose, or "spoil," do you find him a good candidate for President, or a bad candidate?

Vote on principle, America!
"The National Board of the Communist Party USA supports Barack Obama"
CPUSA considers it imperative to give its full support to the most progressive wing of U.S. imperialism through support for Barack Obama.

Wasn't it 80 years that the Communist party had their own candidate. Well, they still do with Comrade Obama.
If Romney wins, this man would really be an asset somewhere working on many of these issues....I really like what he has to say.
For a real education, read the Constitution Party platform at their website
it contains such favorites as
"Pornography, at best, is a distortion of the true nature of sex created by God for the procreative union between one man and one woman in the holy bonds of matrimony, and at worst, is a destructive element of society resulting in significant and real emotional, physical, spiritual and financial costs to individuals, families and communities. We call on our local, state and federal governments to uphold our cherished First Amendment right to free speech by vigorously enforcing our laws against obscenity to maintain a degree of separation between that which is truly speech and that which only seeks to distort and destroy."
•Repeal the Federal Reserve Act, and reform the current Federal Reserve banks to become clearing houses only
The Constitution Party upholds the right of the citizen to keep and bear arms. We oppose attempts to prohibit ownership of guns by law-abiding citizens, and stand against all laws which would require the registration of guns or ammunition.
The pre-born child, whose life begins at fertilization, is a human being created in God's image. The first du...

The pre-born child, whose life begins at fertilization, is a human being created in God's image. The first duty of the law is to prevent the shedding of innocent blood. It is, therefore, the duty of all civil governments to secure and to safeguard the lives of the pre-born
as of now, we're 'all-in' with Romney, or else we get stuck with another four years of Obama-scale failure.
A Romney-scale failure.
Obama has failed.
Obama is gone, Romney replaces him.
at that point, we'll get to see, won't we?
using democrat memes to bust Romney's chops, doesn't make Goode or GJ any better. it just makes you tools of the DNC.
question, for you, though. presume Obama continues his self immolation on stage tonight. presume Romney continues to accelerate his lead over Obama and wins in a landslide.
where does that leave the full blooded Libertarians?
very possibly worse off than you already are...
You Mittiot's keep proving over and over you are mental midget's.
You don't want success for our country for some unknown reason. You want to maintain more of the failed policies that have brought this country to it's knees.
And you don't want liberty for the people whats your F-ing problem?
