According to this blog I found, so far Badnarik, Ed Thompson (Tommy's brother), Jesse Ventura and Republican Congressman Ron Paul have all been mentioned as possibilities.

I thought Green Day were staunch Democrats?

Oh ok.  I assumed it was so because I saw them on TV playing at an anti-Bush rally, so I just assumed they were Democrats.  I stand corrected. Smiley

Johnson would make an excellent candidate for the LP.  Probably enough of one to actually win a few EVs.  It would obviously depend on the campaign, and if politics is still as polarized then as it is now.

Seeing as how Johnson has pretty much retired from politics, its unlikely that he'll even consider a run for the LP in 2008, unless he happens to strongly disagree with the two major candidates on offer.  Having said that, I would have thought he'd have disagreed with Kerry and Bush in 2004 enough ideologically to try for a run then.

How about the Libertarians nominate Ed Clark in 2008 since he did so well for them in 1980?

Because nobody knows anything about him any more.  I just Googled him, and I couldn't even find if he's still alive.  That's not a very good sign for a potential presidential candidate.
