2016 Update
The general election is close to a month away and all the party nominees have been decided. The Democrats have nominated former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who had a very neoconservative pro-war voting record while in congress. The Republicans have nominated Donald Trump, who wants to increase the military budget and bring back US use of torture on terror suspects. The Libertarian Party has nominated Gary Johnson, who endorsed George W. Bush in 2000 and supported the initial invasion of Afghanistan. The Green Party has nominated Dr. Jill Stein, who expresses a desire to close US bases overseas and exhibits overall anti-war sentiment. The Socialist Party has nominated Emidio Soltysik, who also expresses strong anti-war views and opposition to US imperial ambitions overseas. Other anti-war third party candidates include Party of Socialism and Liberation's Gloria La Riva, Workers World Party's Monica Moorehead, Socialist Equality Party's Jerry White, Independent Write-in candidate Cherunda Fox, and the Prohibition Party's James Hedges.
