    Amazing that the media lets Clinton and Trump lie away and when someone is honest, they are immediately disqualified to be POTUS.

    When they're honest about how they don't know the basics when it comes to Seria and what's happening with ISIS? I think that matters. Anyway, Johnson isn't becoming President in any case. He knows it and we know it. He's just using this election to further his own political standing.
    I feel the other two goombas have had much greater gaffes and the media doesn't declare them unfit to serve. Plus, military expansion isn't high on his to-do list.
    Sorry? You don't think the media has declared Trump and Clinton unfit to serve?????? Have you been avoiding the media for the past 4 months?
    There were / are media outlets that will defend or deflate any piece of monkey poop that flies out of Trump or Clinton. The knives came out for Johnson across the media spectrum.

    Have u been avoiding the media for the past 4 months??????? (ha ... one more ?, sucka)
    The knives? I think you are being overly dramatic. He is a libertarian who has no chance in hell of being President and the media is simply pointing out that he is an uninformed candidate (not that Trump isn't as well, but yeah, the media is biased).
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

    Although Sanders endorsed Clinton - he is still putting country and out democracy first, or it could just be that Johnson would take away votes from the bigger pile of shit candidate.

    I really wish Johnson would get his shit together and siphon some votes from trump, but not knowing what Aleppo is is pretty inexcusable.

    Pretty hilarious:

    GARY JOHNSON: If I had to choose between Clinton and Trump with a gun to my head, I'd 'let it go off'

    You're not alone on this one, Johnson.

    I've been saying the same thing.

    side note: A Johnson/Trump debate would be comedy gold. Idiot America would think they are a smart pair.

    Doesn't really matter. Idiot America would despise a smart pair because they would feel like a smart pair is lecturing or talking down to them. Idiot America likes their pandering to be done at a 4th grade level, which is why they love trump.

    Yes, Biden has zero influence. President of the Senate has zero influence or responsibility. What was I thinking?

    And let's not forget about LBJ. No influence there at all.

    His biggest liability is that he isn't trained to spin or deflect questions that he isn't prepared to answer.

    Hillary would have spun it into another topic because if you name someone, Trump's campaign would accuse you of endorsing the downfalls of that leader.

    Trump would have just called him a dummy for asking.

    He shouldn't have to spin it. That's his problem.

    He needs to give non-answers or launch into a pre-loaded topics like Hillary.

    It's fine to support Johnson, but let's not spin his deficits into a strength. I would expect a Libertarian to not know boo-squat about international relations. Not getting involved is part of the platform. Do you ask a vegan about the best cut of meat? This small government thing sure is fun and can channel peoples frustration, but don't act surprised when those candidates show their skill set.

    So from that I assume the Libertarian plan would be to .... what? Just throw out the White House Rolodex on Inauguration Day and dump the international community like a bad date?

    That's a very good question. I would imagine the foreign policy would be to pull out, cut funding, don't get involved, and observe.
