Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson and the Green Partys Jill Stein will not be on the presidential debate stage for the first contest sponsored by the Commission on President Debates. Johnson and Stein both fell short of the 15 percent polling threshold required to participate, the commission said in a statement, adding that Trump and Clinton will face off on September 26 and their running mates, Tim Kaine and Mike Pence, will debate on October 4. Johnson in particular was pushing hard for inclusion in the debates, as hed polled in the double digits across several national surveys, and previously said he would only have a chance to win if he can debate Trump and Clinton.
In a statement, Gov. Johnson lamented his exclusion from the debate stages, writing: I would say I am surprised that the CPD has chosen to exclude me from the first debate, but Im not. After all, the Commission is a private organization created 30 years ago by the Republican and Democratic parties for the clear purpose of taking control of the only nationally-televised presidential debates voters will see. At the time of its creation, the leaders of those two parties made no effort to hide the fact that they didnt want any third party intrusions into their shows.

They can go scratch themselves
Really GOOD!!!!
The cycle is complete
They should hold the debate in Aleppo so Gary will never find it.
This is a good thing because the less people know about Johnson, the more they’re willing to vote for him in lieu of crooked hillary.
Gives Johnson a little more time to find Aleppo anyway.
LOL!!!
Trumps folks should be already pursuing a signal jammer.
Over the earpiece, Hillary hears, “Pepe, Pepe, Pepe”!
Everybody see. Conspiracy theories dont always pan out.
I have NO DOUBT the press tried to pump him up to 15 percent.
But they failed miserably.
No fake polls putting him at 15.
It’s hard to believe, but we are still more free the world and the communists CAN be beaten
Have a good one ColdOne :)
+1
because these clowns are a waste of time. Even if Johnson promised to “build a wall complete with machine guns nests, hungry dogs and landmines” I still wont vote for him.
Good, no need for the distraction.
That pic and the added word “Who?” just made my day. Thanks.
No.
Not jammers. Spoofers.
Don't block the comms channel. Seize it. Put nonsense in her ears.
Mod: "Secretary Clinton, what is your position on protecting the rights of Undocumented Citizens?"
HRC: "'Twas Brillig, and the slithey toves did gyre and gimble in the Wabe ..."
The only good thing about having them up there would be to lengthen the duration of the debate, giving more chance for Hillary to go into a seizure or coughing fit.
But the rules aren’t new, and there are minor candidates in every election.
“Trumps folks should be already pursuing a signal jammer.”
Not if the earpiece operates in restricted frequencies. Can’t no signal jammer be interfering with the restricted frequencies.
You have a good one too!
No, I’d LIKE them to participate. Obviously, they’d try to out-liberal Hillary, and probably pull quite a few disaffected Clinton drones over to their side.
Two losers who keep on losing. Both delusional and she is a psychologist or psychiatrist. Physician heal thou self.
Johnson was out in the New Mexico sun too long. Fried his brain. Now he’s just a walking frejoli.
