Gov. Gary Johnson was interviewed about his presidential campaign and abolishing the IRS on 'Your World with Neil Cavuto.'










Why America Needs Gov. Gary Johnson in the Presidential Debates

July 24, 2012

Last fall, GQ ran a profile of former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson, then a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, under the headline "Is This the Sanest Man Running for President?" The piece noted that in 2003, Johnson scaled Mount Everest with a broken leg, and in 2005, broke his back paragliding off the highest mountain in Maui. "Sanest"? Well, maybe not.

Is it 1992 all over again? In that year, American voters heard that “giant sucking sound” being uttered by Independent candidate Ross Perot. He made history that election cycle by facing off against Republican President George H.W. Bush and Democratic presidential candidate Bill Clinton and even carried 20 percent of the vote.











Libertarian Johnson: I Want the Chance to Debate Obama, Romney

Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson says he doesn’t have a chance of being elected over President Barack Obama or Mitt Romney unless he’s allowed to join them in debates this fall — but those encounters could also give him the opportunity to “crash and burn.”









Does Gary Johnson deserve a spot in the presidential debates?

July 25, 2012

Former New Mexico governor Gary Johnson, who abandoned a failed campaign for the GOP presidential nomination to run as the Libertarian party's candidate, said this week that the key to his longshot bid will be getting into the fall's debates with President Obama and Mitt Romney.

July 26, 2012. Santa Fe. The campaign for Libertarian Party Presidential candidate Gary Johnson announced it was planning to make its first major media buy of the 2012 election. The former 2-term New Mexico Governor has been frantically raising money this past week to pay for it. So far, contributions have been flooding in. But a spokesman for the campaign says they’re still $35,000 short and need to raise it by Monday.












Why Gary Johnson could cost Obama or Romney a win in 2012

Fox News
By Joe Trippi

Back in May, when Americans Elect, the group formed to put a bipartisan third party ticket on the 2012 presidential ballot, closed shop, everyone stopped talking about whether a third party candidate would enter the race in 2012 -- and the focus since then has been on Obama and Romney in a two person race.

This two person race has been a dead heat for months, and most people expect this to be one of the closest presidential races ever. (The latest Real Clear Politics poll average has Obama at 45.9% compared to Romney at 44.8%.)




















Gary Johnson: Live Free

Gary Johnson, two-term governor and Libertarian Presidential candidate, knows that a President Obama or a President Romney will only bring four more years of the same. Only Governor Johnson will do what presidents SHOULD do: promote the peace, increase the freedom, and put America first once more.

In a new video released today, "Live Free," Gov. Gary Johnson, the Libertarian Party nominee for President, declares that a second Obama administration or a first Romney administration will only lead to four more years of the same. Johnson is one of only three presidential candidates expected to be on the ballot in all 50 states.










Ron Paul Supporters Can Help Gary Johnson Become the Wild Card in 2012 Election

By Douglas Goodman

In six weeks, President Obama and most likely Mitt Romney will be the Democratic and Republican presidential nominees for president -- respectively. Whether Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson can poll 15%, in order to participate in the presidential debates and potentially become a wild card or spoiler, will depend on the millions of Ron Paul supporters -- if they decide to throw their support behind Johnson.









Jesse Ventura: “If They Allow Johnson To Debate, You Could See Him Win”

July 29, 2012
Independent Political Report

Former Independent Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura was interviewed on Coast to Coast AM by host George Noory for two hours this past Wednesday.

In comments transcribed below, Governor Ventura repeated his endorsement of Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson.  He also discussed the ballot access and presidential debate challenges faced by Third Party candidates generally, his offer to run with Ron Paul should Dr. Paul drop out of the Republican Primaries, and the possibility of his own run for President in 2016.

More Cities (From The Gary Johnson For President Campaign)

Friends,

1,903 great supporters did it.

That’s how many people – from all across the country – contributed to make our 15% Money Bomb a success. Some gave $5, and some gave $500 or even more. Every dollar helped, and we hit our goal of $150,000. 

If you are one of those 1,903, thank you very much! If you didn’t have a chance to participate, well….We’re not finished yetNot by a long shot.

The election is fewer than 100 days away. And in a few short weeks, the Commission on Presidential Debates will decide whether or not to let me be on the national stage with Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. 

We have much to do in those few short weeks. We have to finalize our first radio advertising buys. I have many campaign appearances to make. In fact, I will be in Washington, Alaska, Oregon, Nevada and Idaho in just the next seven days. My running mate, VP nominee Judge Jim Gray, is departing Saturday to campaign in Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska and Colorado. And keep an eye out – we have official Gary Johnson 2012 campaign vans hitting the roads all over the country right now.

NONE of this happens without funding. The response to our 15% Money Bomb was amazing. We set a goal, and we achieved it. Now, we must take that momentum and keep it growing. We must raise another $250,000 over the next two weeks, and to do that, we’re launching anotherMoney Bomb right now. We’re calling this Money Bomb “More Ads in More Cities.”

It’s simple. With your contributions over the next two weeks, we will be able to take our message to more media markets, more cities – and more voters.As little as $15 will buy a radio spot in a key state. Some places, they obviously cost more. But whatever you choose to contribute, you can be assured that it will have a real impact on how far we can spread our message of liberty, non-intervention and economic freedom.

$250,000 in the next two weeks. That is our goal, and frankly, we MUST achieve it. Please go to www.garyjohnson2012.com today and help us do so.

As I travel the country, it is more and more clear each day that we are poised to make history. Voters are ready for a real choice in November, and it is up to us – you and me – to give them that choice.

Your support is truly gratifying. We ARE making history, and America is taking notice. The next several weeks are going to be exciting, challenging – and crucial to the future of this great nation.

Thank You,


Governor Gary Johnson


P.S.  A couple of days ago, we reached 1 MILLION followers on the social media site Google+. Our message is spreading – keep up the good work!

80- years ago, the last time our country was in a Depression, the solution was the New Deal.  Back then the US wasn't paying for the world's largest military or trillion dollar bankster bailouts.
So the unemployed were put to work building thousands of new, well-equipped public schools, along with subway and road tunnels, bridges, parks, recreational facilities and public works of all kinds. Playwrights were hired to write plays and scholars sent out to interview the last survivors of slavery.
Today's depression calls for a Green New Deal, with public education and quality housing for all, rolling back the prison state and more....
