He has nothing to offer me or my concerns but that IS what he said.
It's a good campaign position for him. Not necessarily so for someone with more name recognition.

I'm hardly the only one. There are a few handfuls of decent people here.



Was that so difficult? He isn't the crazy one though.....the ones that got us into Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Libya are.
Just some more crazy lies from the bat **** crazy fool that you seem to think would make for a good POTUS and keep us out of wars. The only thing McAfee is probably good for is to make Trump look like less of a liar, which is an amazing accomplishment.

There's another Libertarian debate being aired on TV this weekend...on the Blaze channel (I have no idea what channel that is) and it was hosted by Penn Jillette, who is a well known libertarian himself.

I've always said that republican and democrat politicians are like two undertakers fighting over a patient( the US citizens). The libertarian is the doctor locked out of the room yelling instructions through the door to the patient on how to treat his illness and get well again.

Gary Johnson on Free Trade

Given his past comments, I am interested in what he thinks on the tpp and other agreements. He recognizes the need for trade, but really offers no alternatives to how we achieve a baseline of rules for each participating member so it is fair. A lot of times that is what the trade agreements set out to do.

Statistics are showing that most of the Johnson vote is coming from disaffected Democrats. With Johnson in the race it becomes a statistical Tie between Trump & Clinton. This is pretty devastation news to Clinton in particular.

(For the record I voted for Johnson in 2012 instead of Obama as I did in '08)



Gary Johnson. Just what we need--more government coercion

Austen Petersen called him on it at the Libertarian debate, too. No wonder the Dems love Johnson.

Dems don't love Johnson. He has nothing to offer the Dems at all.
