its not the moderates who dont know he exists, its the republican party that wants to ignore johnson. He wasnt even invited to the last debate was he?

for me Johnson is the right guy for a lot of reasons, the problem is he will never get elected if he doens't get the backing of the party, and they aren't interested in a guy who is actually fiscally conservative while being a social libertarian.

Which is the reason I dumped the Republican party and wish they'd become extinct like the dinosaurs they are.

wouldn't that be nice. there are just too many braindeads who follow the party lines without thinking for that to happen any time soon. just look at the regulars here who are quick to bash anyone who questions the all mighty power of the party. Just about anybody who stayed with the party after it put up McCain/ Palin is beyond help.....

Easily 40% of what he says I disagree with, or he is overstating what can be accomplished. I don't think I'll be voting for him.

I'd bet that Gary Johnson would set a new record for the most vetos. I'm all for that.

For whatever reason, recent Presidents don't veto bills much at all anymore. They just let Congress know ahead of time they won't sign it, and either Congress re-does the bill or they give up on it. On rare occasion, they submit it knowing they have the votes to override a veto.

But they don't veto like they used to.
