The REAL Gary Johnson Lays Out a Sane, Coherent, Skeptical Foreign Policy
Posted by freedomforall 7 years, 5 months ago to Politics
Watch the video at the end of this article to hear Johnson's policies with emphasis on foreign policy. Johnson is the only candidate for president who understands and has a foreign policy based on underlying American values and guided by the US Constitution.
This speech reveals a real ethical leader, a statesman.
This speech reveals a real ethical leader, a statesman.
No high tech teleprompter here, just a man explaining his bedrock committment to Americans.
The Q & A session is also istructive. Be sure to listen to Johnson's comments about other leaders at about 31 minutes in the video. Also comments on NSA domestic spying on Americans at 38:30. Free market health care comments at 54 minutes. Very revealing comments.
Gary Johnson is the candidate who deserves your vote.
I doubt Dagny Taggart or Hank Rearden or John Galt actually voted in AS. It took complete collapse of the society to make people see what was wrong. I think that will be required today before it makes any more sense to get involved in politics. Efforts at education (I liked Johnson's speech on foreign relations) over a LONG period of time will pay off, but political action is useless.
The demise of Trump is the straw that broke the camels back for me. No more interest in politics during the rest of my lifetime.
The debates are designed to hide Hillary's guilt as a traitor, to expose Trump's weaknesses, and to exclude any discussion of substantive issues.
As for the "participants", Trump is a dangerous insulting clown. Hillary is a ... I can't describe her accurately in polite company, but Hillary deserves public execution for her crimes.
The "debates" are even more obviously rigged than the process of selecting candidates.
A real debate would be devastating for Hillary and Trump. Neither one of them is capable of a "straight answer" that rationally presents solutions. They are addicted to lies and obfuscation.
With a fair moderator, Gary Johnson would destroy them with honest answers that connect with voters real concerns.
Does the president have to submit to drug testing? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!
President would never have to submit to such a test !!!.. We ought to make teachers and school administrators submit the same drug tests that industry required. Almost ALL the academic people I know would flunk cold !!!
Funny. I remember a high school teacher who passed a drug test because he was stoned at the time of the test. (That was long ago. Likely testing is much better now.)
Heck, 38% aren't afraid of Trump (but scarded to death of Hillary) and 44% aren't afraid of Hillary (but scared to death of Trump.) Voters can be irrationally fearless and fearful at the same time ;^) Its a crazy world, term.
Since Trump is history, now you can Finally Vote on Principle for the only good candidate. That will do more for fixing the system than Trump would ever do.

As for the "so is Johnson", I reply that is even more reason to vote on principle instead of in fear.
Me dino a poet~
Didn't you know it?
You could wait until the Dem's puppet media drops the next bombshell.

They hated Trump's message and it wouldnt have mattered if he were 98% squeaky clean- they would have found the 2% to bring him down. Its disgusting.
Hillary's campaign is one of propaganda and obfuscation of the real important issues. "exposing" Trump was just her backhanded way of neutralizing him as a threat to HER.
What Trump really did in this election campaign is exposed a lot of corruption in the election system. Not to minimize Snowden and Assange at all. They have done much. But Trump did show the media and the two parties to be corrupt as hell more than anyone else has done in modern times.
When Hillary gets elected, there will be a LOT of people who will be upset and never have the same feelings about this country as before.
That certainly includes me. She will NEVER be my president, and I have concluded that both parties as well as the entire election process are just hacks for big government, and she will cement that situation for good in the USA.
So will the next.
For over two months me dino has wondered if the Clinton Crime Cartel would pull a Herman Cain to distract voters from Slick Willy's past.
Of course more bombs will drop.
Plenty more $$$$$$$$$$$$$ where that came from to pay for the ordinance.
I really think that giving speeches like he did on foreign relations gives people things to actually think about. In future years the numbers of people who embrace freedom and capitalism might actually increase to the point where those ideas would have some traction in the political arena.
Apart from that, Johnson is sort of a buffoon when it comes to being interviewed. He giggles and just doesnt present Libertarian ideas very consistently and effectively. He wants pot decriminalized, but other drugs to stay illegal. Inconsistent and it actually damages the idea of personal freedom. This is why running for president at this point in time is bad- it encourages watering down the ideas so as to get a little more popularity.
Johnson is the ONLY candidate who actually talks about the ideas, accepts responsibility for what he does say, and actually was pro-liberty and pro-free markets when he was governor.
Just let Trump go, term. He has always had skeletons that were bound to show up, and the worst haven't even been exposed. Those are the ones that are held back for back room negotiations to control him if he had won the election.
The upside is you can now vote on principle and advance liberty instead of voting in fear for statists.
This is the last election that I will be remotely interested in. I cant see anyone in the future with the stamina to resist the crooked establishment like Trump did. He wasted his money and my time- the establshment was never going to allow him to win, and Johnson would not get nearly as far as Trump did
(Then it will be up to the republican congress to select Johnson when Hitlery doesn't get enough electoral votes.)
That's his big mistake. No wonder he can't get very far.
Sane and coherent -- Hah!
No one can win being sane and coherent. try inane and babbling and you might get the voter's attention.
