| Subject: 2020: The Year of the Libertarians? Wed Apr 24, 2019 7:16 pm | |
| 2020 could be a continuation of 2016 if the Democrats nominate someone as unlikable as former secretary of state, Hillary Clinton, and if President Donald Trump continues to offend the libs and the neocons left and right. So it could be an important year for the Libertarian Party. There aren’t many who have formally declared their candidacy, but several have formed exploratory committees.
Adam Kokesh is a former US Marine Corps Sergeant who served in Iraq; Libertarian political activist, radio host, and author.

Kokesh was been arrested in 2007 while protesting the Iraq war for wearing combat fatigue pants with name tags and emblems removed, which is a violation of uniform regulations. Kokesh was also arrested in 2013 for possession of Schedule 1 & 2 drugs with a gun. He was arrested again for similar crimes in 2014 and 2018.
