James Weeks, a candidate for Libertarian Party chairman, took the stage on Sunday afternoon and told the audience, "We could all use a little bit of fun."

He then turned on music and began to undress before a very confused crowd.

Weeks danced for a couple of minutes while some onlookers laughed, many shook their heads in embarrassment, and others took photos.

"Sorry, that was a dare," Weeks said, before shuffling off stage in his underwear. "I'm gonna go ahead and drop out."

He did not win.

With polls showing many voters displeased with likely major party nominees Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, Libertarians hope the party will be seen as a more credible alternative this year than it has in the past.

Some expressed concern that the stripping probably did not help.

No, probably not:

Are you sure you're talking about Hillary Clinton -- the one who's running for President?

It's possible. 50 years is a long time.

BlueStarLizzard · « **Reply #9 on:** May 30, 2016, 08:13:36 PM »

Hey now, I just said at least is wasn't Hilary! You all have taken this to a whole new level of gross.

grampster · « **Reply #10 on:** May 30, 2016, 08:15:04 PM »

Actually, Hillary is much more attractive now than she was when she was younger.

dm1333 · « **Reply #11 on:** May 30, 2016, 08:15:55 PM »

I knew that would stir up some controversy!

Yeah.

Everything either sags out of view or is covered by the sagging.

Ugh.

Brain bleach. Urgently need brain bleach.

True. Given the amount of ugly involved this time, I am expecting a whole LOT of freedom. Blubberous, overhanging, man-booby, wildly hairy freedom.

Hey, when it comes to political ugliness, Hillary is the trump card.

And Libertarian Party members wonder why their candidates are generally ignored by voters.

The upside is, if enough people get wind of this, the LP will be sucking fewer votes away from Trump in the general election.

The striptease is no big issue to me as this whole run up to the election has been somewhat of a circus.

The fact that the Libertarians want to let the third world invade the USA and also import foreign skilled labor from every socialist welfare state on the planet is a cause for concern.

There won't be any assimilation to the USA because the USA is ceasing to exist as anything other than a plantation run by global elites.

Libertarians in their ideological purity would destroy our nation by putting the final nail in the coffin of our "common culture" through unfettered and unregulated immigration.

Every immigrant group we have votes left in overwhelming numbers. Increasing their numbers is national suicide.

There is no such thing as a propositional nation. Nations have borders and a common culture. Eliminate the borders, dilute and balkanize the culture and the nation will cease to be.

This should've been placed in another location or at least a warning to us that it may not be safe for anywhere.

My apologies. My take was that an image of a chubby guy in inappropriate clothing that nevertheless conceals the naughty bits was more comic than titillating.

I edited it to make it a linky. But if you click the linky THE IMAGE IS EVEN LARGER.

Methinks there was a bit of tongue-in-cheek involved in his post....

Anyone catch the debate leading to Johnson getting the nomination? I especially enjoyed the part where the crowd boo'ed the idea that selling heroin to a five year old should be illegal. Great job guys, I'm sure you'll be really successful this time around.
