2008 Presidential Third-Party Candidates

There are more than a dozen third-party candidates in the 2008 presidential election. National Public Radio (NPR) has been interviewing some of the third-party candidates. On Saturday, October 18, 2008, NPR interviewed Chuck Baldwin, Presidential candidate for the Constitution Party. View an abbreviated transcript of his interview here and click on the "Listen now" for the 5 minute audio interview of this pro-life and anti-war candidate.
