A candidate running for the chairman of the Libertarian Party did more than drop out of the race over the weekend – he also dropped his pants on live TV during the party’s national convention.
James Weeks took to the stage to support the party’s vice-president during Libertarian Party national convention in Orlando on Sunday, when he told members “I figured we could use a little bit of fun.”
Weeks began leading cheering attendees in clapping and dancing before he unexpectedly stripped off his suit, shirt and tie during the convention’s live broadcast on C-Span.

The bizarre display quickly lead to catcalls, followed by boos.
Weeks responded to the crowd by saying “I’m sorry; that was a dare,” before announcing he was dropping out of the race to become party chairman.
There was plenty of reaction online to the spontaneous strip tease.
What has taking off ones clothes got to do with politics? My, how the world has changed or is it a misperceived perception on my part?
