Episode 18 – Gary Johnson Campaign Continues to Crash and Burn
Manage episode 308832047 series 3021383
In this episode, I discuss Gary Johnson’s most recent gaffe in which he could not name a world leader that he admires. The Libertarian Party has squandered a fantastic opportunity to present libertarian ideals to the mainstream by nominating a poor speaker who does not understand the principles upon which libertarianism rests. Johnson has run such a poor campaign that it almost makes me believe that he is initially sabotaging it. In order to carry the libertarian message forward, the ideology needs an inspiring, eloquent leader that knows how to talk to and relate to people. I have not read about nor spoken to a single person that has been inspired by Gary Johnson throughout this election. It may take a long time for the Libertarian Party to recover from this mistake.
