Third Party of the Week:

The Peace and Freedom Party is basically the hippie party and was founded largely in opposition to the Vietnam War. "Committed to socialism, democracy, ecology, feminism and racial equality" the PFP is a left wing party perhaps most notable for some of the celebrates they have nominated for POTUS. In 1972 the party nominated pediatrician and best selling child care expert Dr. Benjamin Spock, in 1984 ex-communicated Mormon ERA activist and radical feminist leader Sonia Johnson, in 2008 Ralph Nader, and in 2012 for president Rosanne Barr and vice president Cindy Sheehan. So really its anybody's guess who they nominate this time, but if your sufficiently upset when Hillary eventually beats Bernie you might find someone to your liking to vote for in the Peace and Freedom Party.
