So far, the news on the U.S. presidential election has been dominated by Republican Party and Democratic Party nominees John McCain and Barack Obama. However, recently, some "third party" candidates have begun to gain notoriety, namely Libertarian Party nominee Bob Barr and independent Ralph Nader. 
Unbeknownst to many, there are several other minor party candidates in the race. One of them is New American Independent Party nominee Frank McEnulty. McEnulty has been interviewed several times by Wikinews over the past few months, but in one held earlier this week with reporter Joseph Ford, he went into detail on why he'd be a good president, why its necessary to support a third party candidate this year, and most importantly, why you should give him your vote.
The interview can be read below.
Wikinews (Joseph Ford): Why are you running for president?
Joseph Ford: You're the nominee of the New American Independent Party. What does your party stand for? 
Joseph Ford: If elected, how would you handle America's economical crisis? 
Joseph Ford: How would you handle illegal immigration? 
Joseph Ford: How would you handle foreign relations with Europe, where there are growing anti-American feelings? 
Joseph Ford: How would you handle the War on Drugs? 
Joseph Ford: It has been over five years since the Iraq War began. As president, how would you handle it? 
Joseph Ford: For millions of Americans, health care is a major issue. How would you handle it? 
Joseph Ford: Homosexual marriage is an extremely controversial subject among Americans. How would you handle it? 
Joseph Ford: How would you handle America's educational system? 
Joseph Ford: How would you handle abortion? 
Joseph Ford: How would you handle the environment? 
Joseph Ford: Why is it necessary that a third party candidate be voted into the White House this year? 
Joseph Ford: We haven't seen many Frank McEnulty media appearances, billboards or commercials. Will we see these in the weeks ahead? Or are you trying to run more of a grassroots campaign? 
Joseph Ford: How are you currently doing in the polls?
Joseph Ford: Why are you a better candidate than Chuck Baldwin (Constitution Party), Bob Barr (Libertarian Party), John McCain (Republican Party), Cynthia McKinney (Green Party) or Barack Obama (Democratic Party)? Why should the American people give you their vote? 

Joseph Ford: There are thousands reading this right now. What could you say to convince them to give you their vote?
