Just Johnson, McAfee, and Petersen? It would still be good, but I'd also like to see Kerbel, Feldman, and, of course, D.W. Perry. If I was a purist, I'd be pissed at Perry's exclusion. And I still kind of am as a "moderate"/"pragmatist" (which are ironic things to call me of all people, but relative to someone like Darryl "abolish the federal government" Perry I am).
Unless I missed someone, those are the serious candidates. Everyone else is either crazy (and not a crazy genius like McAfee, just crazy), a LINO (look up Shawna Sterling's platform--if you're in favor of raising military spending and preserving "traditional marriage," you're as libertarian as I am socialist), or just have really crappy website design.
That's not being pedantic, that's actually a really good litmus test. If you're website looks like a 12-year-old made it in 1996, you probably aren't qualified to lead the modern world's biggest superpower, or even be the standard-bearer for the Libertarian Party.
Gary Johnson would be an objectively great President if elected.
