Gary Johnson on The View 9/8

[nikcers]

I think his interaction with Behar in that video is golden. I for one would love to have had the opportunity to personally tell her she's wasting her vote on Hillary. He does it with good humor and has everybody laughing with him.

Behar is so tied in to the DNC. It's a real eye-opener that she blurts out on the air that he's a threat to Clinton.

The republicans and democrats are shaking in their boots because their base isn't going to show up. Both sides of establishment are spending billions getting people not to vote for their candidate instead of getting people to vote for their unpopular candidate. The amount of young people that will vote for a third party is brand new to election politics. The Ron Paul and Sanders coalition have not aligned but they still exist and the powers that be are afraid of it.

So..... Is Gary stoned here?

You know, I like Gary. I'm not voting for him. I don't agree with the violence of the system itself. But, that said, at least Gary doesn't seem like a complete a-hole. He smiles, he seems nice, he is kind to others. He doesn't look plastic or virtolic. I suddenly really understand why the LP chose him.

That was a fantastic interview.

Are we sure he's stopped toking? He seems high as $#@!.

Nah- just a nice guy- very refreshing.

Agree-

Reminds me a bit of my grandfather: "In politics be conservative; in all other things be liberal".

Of course he meant conservative & liberal in the original meaning of the words.

And Gary's not stoned.

Its a generational thing.

For me and my entire generation, we took on this kind of sarcastic, ironic, snarkiness because it seemed the most extreme reaction to the earnestness of hippies. -Chuck Palahniuk

Most dumbass Muricans couldnt find Syria on a map either but for a presidential candidate there really is no excuse.

 

[Rudeman]

He made Behar look like a total idiot (not hard to do but still nice to see). She was baffled at his response about guns. I'm surprised Whoopie didn't chime in with idiotic statements like she did with Rand.

Eh. The Generals know where it's at. That's really all that matters.

Great observation. If you truly love trump unconditionally and think that he's a great candidate, you should vote for him. I honestly don't think trump has a chance, but it would be voting your conscience.

On the other hand - Anybody who hates Hillary more than they love trump should consider supporting Johnson. It's becoming clear that he's the one chance we have to keep her out of office.

You need new glasses.

...is this the first time you've revealed that you favor trump over hillary? ...in your opinion, what is the important difference favoring stinking trump over stinking hillary?...

...maybe similarly, i provoked a bet with a friend and glenn beck fan that stinking beck will make a conversion to team drumpf..(i sense it might be just a few days before the ($)election)...i got 5-1 odds..you'd have to be a goddamned fool to turn that down!

Not presuming to answer for Brian. But wanting Hillary to get less votes doesn't mean one favors trump. Johnson nabbing electoral votes means the very real possibility of having neither trump nor Hillary as president. As a bonus, if Johnson + Stein steal more from Hillary but she still wins (I'd imagine Castle spoils trump more), at least she doesn't achieve quite as large of a landslide and mandate.

Gary Johnson goes on The View

He was not high.

 

[Lindsey]

For MSM, I thought that was pretty fair and he did alright.

 

[nikcers]

He is getting better at this but he still sounds like a bewildered Adam West William Shatner mashup sometimes. He needs to speak more fluidly if he wants to catch on. I've never paid attention to him until 2016 though, this is the year for the death of the Republican party. Maybe the Libertarians will rise from the ashes?

I don't think he could have done any better.

lol.. Joy is such a biatchh...

I think Gary's speech pattern is quite similar to Ron Paul's. This was a good interview, and it's nice to see Fox News didn't try any "gotcha" questions.

Not nearly as good of speaker as Ron Paul, a lot of the way he words his foreign policy and stuff like that is phrased the same way as Ron Paul. Even Ron Paul isn't a great speaker, think Trump he is a great speaker but he uses dumb words and has a shit foreign policy. This dubbed video really highlights the difference in delivery styles in an exaggerated but realistic real world comparison.

Favor? That's a strong word. Satan himself might be preferable to Hillary, so that's not much of a hurdle. But I understand the reasoning and politics behind voting for Trump to stop Hillary in swing States.

Paul says stopping Hillary Clinton is reason to vote for Donald Trump

In the second video, Rand says he understands voting for the Libertarian candidate to send a message. I would add that in either a hard core red or blue state, everyone should vote for a party other than Dem/Rep. For instance, no one can say that a vote for Johnson or Castle in California helps Hillary. Hillary is winning California no matter what.

Additionally, I have long advocated for libertarians to run as Democrats. Gary Johnson almost seems to be trying that avenue. Hopefully it will be successful, and he will capture a lot of Democrat votes. Unfortunately, "libertarianism" is only sometimes convenient to authoritarian global socialists. Thus the ruthless set-ups and attacks on Johnson (and the Pauls) by MSNBC types. Democrats that usually ignore libertarians are now coming out against them with full venom. The Second Amendment and cuts to government programs are the siren call to the left, and those are emotional issues they hope will bring them more votes. Anything else that a "libertarian" might stand for is out the window, ignored and disregarded.
