DescriptionChances are you didn’t know Republican Fred Karger is running for president.

Why would you?

He hasn’t been in any of the candidate debates (even though he met the polling requirements to be invited on stage) and his name doesn’t usually appear on the TV network’s election tallies (despite attracting more votes than better-known candidates in some early primaries).

Very early in this process, Fred Karger’s presidential campaign was relegated to an interesting but largely invisible second tier – one he shared with former Louisiana governor Buddy Roemer and former New Mexico governor Gary Johnson (who have both since abandoned the Republican Party to run as an independent and a libertarian respectively).
