Choose Gary Johnson and Bill Weld - don't pick the meteor

At a time when 13% of registered voters polled showed a preference of having a giant meteor hit the Earth to having Trump or Clinton as president, the Libertarian ticket, starring former governors Johnson and Weld, hits it out of the park with a no-hype, plain-talking ad...



If they poll at 15%, they will be in the presidential debates this year. If they receive just 5% of the national vote total in the election, the Libertarian party will receive advance federal matching funds in the next presidential election, changing the election landscape.

I am, predictably, all in.

I enthusiastically support Johnson, Weld, and this ad.

Yes, the choice of Weld as a running mate is interesting. It would be very interesting to see the two parties dealing with a veto authority that signs and vetoes legislation on the basis of a very different calculus than either has dealt with before (and separately from party in-politics).
