Gary who?
The ad acknowledges that most people have never heard of him by encouraging viewers to "Google: Governor Gary Johnson."
It also shows a confidence in his public record that he's encouraging people to google him, and not just take is word on it.
Also, given his last name, he's not going to have any Google problems.
Let's just be glad his first name isn't Harry.
you mean you didn't see him in that movie team america world police? He kills terrorists and loves teh gehys, sings about AIDS AIDS AIDS, etc.
2st?
3th?
Cue MSM commentators on hidden racist subtext in 3...2...1...
What do you mean? There were no fried chicken or collard green refer...ohhhhhhh.
Never mind...
As a Ron Paul supporter, I will be checking the box for Gary Johnson. I can only shake my head at the Republican party for choosing Romney, the party of principal's my arse. I guess their principals have changed. That's fine, my party has changed.
Dude. Write in Ron Paul. That's what I'm doing. If I were in a swings state, I'd vote Obama, 1) to punish the republicans and 2) because we're going to have economic misery, and I'd rather it not be blamed on the "free market" president.
Dude. Write in Ron Paul. Because it's all about personality worship. Not the freedom.
Slow motion watermelon is mesmerizing.
Penn Teller did it too.

Hey! Where did my ampersand go?
Voting for the Libertarian Party only encourages their collective idiocy. Not voting at all (for the third straight presidential election) seems like a better choice, given that voting is only an illusion of self-determination anyway.
That's why I vote for people instead of parties.
Politicians and political parties only care about votes. So, you have 3 choices:
Vote for them - it validates all they do (they don't care or know if you are holding your nose or a rabid supporter).
Vote against them - they notice (and so does everyone else)and they pay attention.
Don't vote - they don't have to pay attention to you.
If casting a vote doesn't matter, not casting one also doesn't matter. for me, voting LP is my small obscene gesture to the scum in DC.
Exactly.
Gary needs to get some of the people that did Ron Paul's ads on his team. A couple of them were fucking boss.
Is this some kind of violent rhetoric intended to intimidate environmental socialists?
you mean you didn't see him in that movie team america world police? He kills terrorists and loves teh gehys, sings about AIDS AIDS AIDS, etc.
The political ad just doesn't work without a crusty old guy talking about gold.
We're not a party.
They got that right. Final day of their recent convention in Las Vegas established that fact, for those who still had doubts about it.
I guess I better wear a plastic bag over my body if I find myself in the front row at a Johnson campaign appearance. He might have his own personal Sledge-O-Matic.
Annoying music, and denigrates his political party (well, the one he's been in for the last few weeks) with a faint disappearing font at first, and then saying it's "not a party".
You'd think the LP would have learned something from the Barr debacle, but I guess not.
