A new poll shows Gary Johnson at 11 percent!

  That means if one of the candidates implodes in a scandal of some sort, he has a solid chance!

Thanks for posting. I had not even heard about it until I saw this post. I watched a few minutes.

Gary Johnson looks down-to-earth yet presidential. He comes off as some one telling you what he really thinks, like someone I would know and get along with.

I don't like the low quality of the video. This is a rare chance where a Libertarian could be elected president. That could lead to Libertarians being elected to Congress. Both of the mainstream parties are poised to nominate people that have tepid supporters and who come off as offensive to their non-supporters. If one of them has a scandal, a sudden health problem, or any surprise, it could be an opening for a Libertarian. They need to bring their A game right now to be ready if that should happen.

  March 29 Stossel moderates a televised Libertarian debate and they get their chance to look at much like cardboard cutouts as the major party candidates.

  While I think they could be more polished, each of these candidates displays better ideas than anything that the GOP debates have revealed.

    I am eager to watch it. IMHO Gary Johnson is the only real choice for Libertarians. I've only seen that one debate, but he just blows them all away at being telegenic.
    
    I would like to see him on the stage with the Democrat and Republican nominee.

      If you have time, watch the rest of the video. The other candidates have a few interesting solutions to current problems. Hopefully Johnson's campaign is watching and analyzing those novel solutions for application.
