If he does this, it will most assuredly secure Obama's victory. The last thing you want to do is split the vote of the conervatives in HALF.

The whole "ZOMG A LIBERTATIAN CANDIDATE WILL MEAN OBAMA WINS" is the biggest pile of BS I keep hearing. Just because the mainstream media likes to paint the Libertarian Party as a sub-section of the Republicans doesn't make it true. Plenty of "Liberals" would vote for Gary Johnson after the 4 year of Obama's war mongering.

Gary Johnson as president. hmmm. well he does know how to balance a budget. he does not spend what he does not have. he gave a 10 percent raise to teachers in NM when he was Governor , when no other democrat would. he left office with a balanced budget and then some. Gary did say he wanted legalize to marijuana and made some very good arguments about it. I don't smoke the stuff never have. Id say he is way better than Obama, he did get companies to NM to provide jobs. cant really say that about the rest of the other Governors. He is very down to earth person if you ask me. Not big on drama or a PR pig he did get the job done he set out to do, and that was create jobs and balance the budget of the state. Well NM is in deep debt again due to out last democratic Governor; now the teachers are seeing that 10 percent raise wiped out in pay cuts and then some.

I though this guy would always make a good president, one thing is for sure I know he would heavily concentrate his work on the U.S. home-front. he seems to be the underdog though in the media. The libertarian party would do good by by him in any capacity. Gary Johnson was not always a politician, he owned and built a construction company,so the guy knows what a good hard days work really is.
