Quote:I don't wed myself to a political philosophy and try to fit everything into that philosophy. I try to take each issue individually, try to figure out what works, what doesn't work, what the unintended consequences are, etc. But when I do try to generalize about myself, I see myself falling into a social liberal / fiscal conservative type of box.


Gary Johnson says he is a social liberal and fiscal conservative. I also believe he's not a nut nor is he a crook. That's why I'm interested.


Even if he loses, he can get enough votes to show the way for a viable third party, which is something we really need right now. Leave the socialists in the Democratic party and leave the social conservatives in the Republican party. Take everyone else and offer them a viable alternative.
