In this episode, I look at the history of the Constitution party, and what brought about it's creation. I also take a close look at their Presidential Candidate for 2020. I'll apologize now, I do tend to rant a little bit in this episode.
In the final thoughts segment, I talk about an idea for how we could have term limits. It's a hypothetical idea at the moment, but if you have any thoughts about it, please reach out. We need a way to get these career politicians out of office.

Unlike the previous episodes, I'm featuring a lesser known party. The pirate party started in 2006, but isn't well known yet. Check out the episode to learn more, and see if their values align with your own.
In the Final Thoughts segment, I answer a question that came up during a conversation I had on Twitter. Why did I leave the Libertarian Party? I ramble a bit with it, but the answer is in there.
Special Thanks to Joseph Klein, Chairman of the Pirate National Committee, and David Lewis, Chairman of the Ohio Pirate Party, for taking the time to answer my questions about the party, and help me understand a bit more about it.
