Former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson is campaigning to win the White House as a Libertarian after receiving scant attention in the Republican presidential race.

Johnson easily became the party's presidential nominee at the Libertarian national convention in Las Vegas on Saturday.

He hopes to appeal to voters fed up with the traditional two-party system this November.

He won 74 percent of the vote on the first ballot in Las Vegas, an unusual showing of support.

By that reasoning, Republicans are all pro-life!

In my memory, every single LP Presidential nominee has been pro-life.

The Republican Party platform is pro-life, and the Libertarian Party platform, is radically pro-abortion.

Before you start launching attacks of ignorance at people, you should know what you are supporting.

No one ever argued about the LP platforms. The candidates have always been pro-life. That surprises a lot of people. But, it shouldn't.

Really? No one was arguing that the LP isn’t pro-abortion?

You didn’t know that the libertarian party is a pro-abortion party?
