My comments:

I think Weld and Flake would have an extraordinarily difficult time getting enough delegates to be nominated for the presidency. I really think Weld only got the VP and last time because Gary wanted him.

Mark Cuban would be a hell of a recruit and would have a serious chance of getting the party to 15%. However, this would be 15% in name only and would risk turning the LP into a Mark Cuban-based party.

Justin Amash would also make a great recruit. He would never do it, though, as running against a sitting Republican president would cost him his seat in Congress. I've wondered whether he could hold his seat as a Libertarian under the right circumstances.

Overall, this race looks wide open so far with no Gary running.
