As I see it, all four cardinal points on the political compass - and it is a compass, not a spectrum - will be represented in the election: National liberalism by Trump, neoliberalism by Hillary, conservatism by Gary Johnson, despite his libertarian label (the "libertarians" never seriously push for legalizing drugs, etc.), and left-liberalism by Jill Stein - and a poll reported by MSNBC yesterday had Johnson and Stein getting 16% between them.
"These, and many other matters which might be noticed, add a volume of unofficial declarations to the mass of organic utterances that this is a Christian nation" - Justice David Brewer, Church of the Holy Trinity v. United States, 1892
