Third Party Candidates For Presidential Election 2012

Not long ago I wrote a hub describing the Republican candidates for the 2012 Presidential race. I was looking through the answers section of hub pages and found a question about the 3rd party candidates. I thought it a good idea to list them for you. These are only the ones who have declared so far. Keep in mind that if some don't make the primary on the Republican side, they may file as an Independent. A good example could be Ron Paul.

Scroll down and learn about your 3rd party choices for President.

The Green party has two people that have filed as candidates.
