I'm sincerely glad to see this among the service members. I hope that Johnson can get eh necessary 15% so he can take place in the debates and get his name out there more, which will hopefully give him the edge with the #NeverTrump types and BernieBots who don't want to vote for their parties' respective nominees and don't know who else to vote for.
I agree that this is a very important election year, so we need to make sure neither Trump nor Hillary are elected.

Personally, I think the LP has done a much better job getting themselves noticed this election cycle than in previous ones. I also think that this will help them in future elections even if they lose this one.

SGT David Commini I hope that it doesn't take the 15% (an arbitrary number taken from the League of Women Voters). The Libertarian and Green Parties have both files a law suit against the (Republican and Democrat created) Commission on Presidential Debates. If they win the lawsuit, the debates will not be limited to Republican, Democrat, and others that they deem worthy. It would open the debates to candidates who will appear on the ballot in the general election.

Gary Johnson and Bill Weld are on the ballot in all 50 states. There perspective and vision which goes beyond "don't let the other person win" would be refreshing.

Absolutely, sir. I've honestly gotten tired of all of the mud slinging that goes on between candidates and I would rather focus on someone who has something to actually say that isn't just tired rhetoric.

LT Erik Frederick That does not surprise me at all. Trump is a hot head who could end up putting troops in harm's way needlessly (more so than current and previous administration), and without support from our allies. Clinton has proven that she just doesn't give a shit about anyone in the service of this nation. Governor Johnson is neither.
