James Weeks of the Libertatian Party dropped out of the Presidential selection race in spectacular fashion on Sunday.

The national convention, held in Orlando, favours flat tax, no social solidarity and rarely sees anyone from minorities.

The party selected Gary Johnson, former governor of New Mexico, to run as their presidential candidate. Former Massachusetts governor Bill Weld was named as his running mate.

Johnson beat Austin Petersen, the founder of The Libertarian Republic magazine, and John McAfee – everyone’s favourite virus killer.
