Public support for Libertarian Party presidential nominee Gary Johnson currently sits at roughly eight percent in national polling, a little more than half of the level he needs to be included in the fall debates, according to the rules. The former two-term Republican Governor of New Mexico has come under fire from some conservatives for acting as a potential spoiler for Donald Trump -- in fact, Trump is benefitting from Johnson's presence in the race -- while others argue that the advocate for limited government has spent too much time and energy pandering to disgruntled left-wing voters. What is his sales pitch to disaffected elements of the center-right? I posed that question and many others to Johnson in an extended, exclusive sit-down interview earlier this week. The first installments of our conversation are featured below

Is it possible that Johnson could do well enough in NM to tip the state to Trump?

Sounds good to me. He’ll take more from Hillary.
I object to the term “Gary Johnson”.
No problem, Gary, we can call them “criminal invaders” instead if that makes you happy.
If he’d put down the bong long enough, then maybe he could think straight.
Obviously a member of Obama’s Choom Gang...
So basically he’s the male version of Hillary Clinton..open border freak..this is who Bill Kristol and the other NeverTrumper fools support? And Trump isnt Conservative enough for them LOL
I object to the term “Gary Johnson”.
OMG
I cannot stand this guy. He was on Stossel I think last week and him and the VP candidate just ridiculous.
I like Libertarian views too. I just dont think heroin should be legal...
Freepers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“in fact, Trump is benefitting from Johnson’s presence in the race”
Exactly! He’s pro TPP, pro open borders, pro mandatory vaccines, etc....
Are there FReepers seriously considering this candidate???
If only he objected to the term “Illegal Immigrant” because he thinks it should be “Illegal Alien”...
But no, he is SCHMUCK!
Heard a political ad this morning from his campaign on the radio. Kid you not.
>pro mandatory vaccines
versus a diseased America? Johnson is a dimwit but even a bad dentist pulls a bad tooth once in a while.
Then call them Illegal Aliens. They're not here legally dumbass!
Simple. Trespassers.
Watch the Foxnews interview of Gary Johnson. When asked what the limitations should be on immigration, he states “No limits at all.” They couldn’t believe what they were hearing, so they asked it over and over in different ways. He always gave the same answer.
Personally, I think this disqualifies him for the White House. I can’t picture any Republican other than the most extreme open-borders types voting for this guy, given his position on illegal immigration. The problem, though, is that a lot of voters who are toying with the idea of voting for him don’t know what his position is. Trump should be running ads with a clip of him saying “No limit at all.” That would leave only Democrats voting for him.
Certainly no one who has even the slightest inclination to vote for Trump would go for this guy if they knew what his positions were.
Me too.....because there is no such term.
It's Illegal Alien.
