Libertarian Presidential candidate Gary Johnson is still a relative unknown, but according to the latest polls, he’s drawing double digits against Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.

But while Johnson might be gaining fans because of his position on legalizing marijuana—it’s a key part of his campaign’s platform—he swears that, should he actually win the White House, he would quit smoking pot (at least for his first term)....

[Cyberman]

Well, okay then....

[orchestra]

Louise Mensch can vote for him.

[fwdude]

Yeah, he’ll smoke it OUT on the porch.

[mkjessup]

Yeah what polls?

Johnson won’t be remembered as a has-been, he’ll be remembered as a *never-was*.

[Mr. Mojo]

I’m quite sure he’ll never smoke pot in the WH.

[humblegunner]

Taxpayers have no doubt payed for air-moving systems to accommodate Obama's puffing..

Why waste it? Let everybody smoke in there.

[InterceptPoint]

Sorry Hillary, this guy is going to cut into your current lead with the Hippie Voting Block.

[Wolfie]

In as much as he’ll never be there, I believe him.

[ozzymandus]

He’s got TV’s Andy Levy’s vote. That’s one. Maybe Bernie supporters will go for him.

[goldstategop]

Summertime fling with the Losertarians.

Unlike Ross Perot, no one knows Johnson.

Johnson is a sexual slang by the way.

I don’t know of any one who would put a pothead in the WH.

[Robert DeLong]

A promise he will have no problem keeping, because he won’t be anywhere near the White House, especially as an occupant.

[BigEdLB]

That’s magnanimous

[oblomov]

What’s the point of voting for a Libertarian, then?

[TTFlyer]

And Barry was going to generously offer to leave his black light posters up if Johnson won :(

[SunkenCiv]

98 percent of the voters in the US promise that too.

[Amendment10]

I think that voters are going to make sure that Mr. Johnson won’t be smoking pot in the WH.

[Theodore R.]

Has anyone ever picked by NM voters been much good?

[lee martell]

Anybody for a platter of Hash Brownies? How about we just before that meet and greet with Henry Kissinger and the Koch Brothers?

[Snickering Hound]

No more White House hippies.

“I don’t know of any one who would put a pothead in the WH.”

I know of a large group who already have put one in the White House! Many of them thought it was a smart move but some are having second thoughts now.
