Financial Survival Network: Kerry Lutz- Interviewing Gary Johnson: 'Proven Budget Cuter From New Mexico'

Source:Financial Survival Network- Kerry Lutz interviewing Libertarian Party presidential nominee Gary Johnson.
"We met up with Gary Johnson, former governor of New Mexico and present Libertarian candidate for President. Gary was a former governor of New Mexico. During his two terms in office, of an overwhelmingly Democrat state, he vetoed 750 bills and exercised thousands of line item vetos. He was so effective that his opposition referred to him as Governor Veto. He ran for the Republican nomination this year, but he was kept out of the early debates by CNN and CNBC rules, which were created to keep out minor candidates. As a result, he never attained the status of serious candidate as far as the Main Stream Media was concerned. While his odds of winning the nomination are virtually non-existent, his message is compelling, and he has provided a road map for other fiscally sane candidates to shake things up." 


I'm not saying that I'm going to vote for Gary Johnson for President. And if I don't vote for him for President, it won't be so much because I don't like his campaign or what he stands for, but because he's not going to win and I'm not comfortable with a President Mitt Romney and a Tea Party Congress (House and Senate) which would be horrible for this country. Whatever you think of President Barack Obama and I have my own issues with him, especially as it relates to civil liberties, at least he stands up to the Tea Party, Populist-Right of the Republican Party. 

But if you look at all the presidential nominees in 2012, Gary Johnson is the only serious candidate when it comes to fiscal responsibility, especially as it to the national debt and deficit. He's the only one saying that borrowing and spending is bad for the economy and we can't keep doing that and need to stop that, as well as cut things and block grant programs that should be run by the states, especially as it relates to public assistance. And he's also a strong believer in civil liberties and personal freedom, as well as federalism, and it s strong opponent of the so-called War On Drugs. So there's a lot to like about Gary Johnson's presidential campaign.
