Chase Oliver - Voting for a Third Party: Not a Wasted Vote

CREATED BY HUMAN

Chase Oliver, a libertarian presidential candidate, discusses his campaign and the challenges of running as a third-party candidate. He emphasizes the importance of positive and aspirational messaging to attract voters and build a foundation for the Libertarian Party. Oliver also addresses the misconception that voting for a third party is a wasted vote and highlights the need for electoral reform, such as ranked-choice voting. He shares his experiences from traveling to 47 states and meeting diverse communities, which have reinforced his belief in the commonality and diversity of the American people. Oliver discusses his fundraising strategy and the use of targeted advertising and social media to reach potential voters. He also distinguishes himself from other candidates, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., by advocating for smaller government, individual liberty, and peaceful diplomacy. Chase Oliver's primary goals for the Libertarian Party include achieving ballot access, major party status, and supporting winnable races. He also aims to double the party's membership and maintain those gains beyond 2024. As an openly gay candidate, Oliver believes that America is becoming more accepting, but there is still resistance in some rural areas. He emphasizes the importance of running as an honorable candidate and being a representative for the LGBTQ+ community. The Libertarian Party is seen as a welcoming home for the LGBTQ+ community, contrasting with the Democrats who are accused of using them for votes. Oliver discusses the three places in the US known for their barbecue: Texas, East North Carolina, and Kansas City.
