Socially Liberal, Fiscally Conservative.

Does this describe you? Are you often frustrated that the United States have seemingly pushed its citizens into two opposing corners and said you are either one or the other?

I wouldn't consider myself Republican or Democrat, I am just simply someone who wants what is best for the country, I don't care who the president is, what "team" he is on, or who is in Congress, so long as they do what is right for the people and so long as the people have a say in what happens. If this resonates with you then I think you might like Gary Johnson.

A quick blog I wanted to share with you from his website:

With the GOP electorate in disarray and none of the four standing candidates viewed as favorably as the president, the time has never been better for a serious third party candidate. Former two-term New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson, a Republican turned Libertarian after being shut out of the GOP debates throughout 2011, is that candidate.
As Johnson’s national exposure grows and the GOP eventually settles on a nominee, voters are going to realize that they finally have the viable third party candidate they have been looking for all these years. Johnson represents what he believes is the fastest growing voter demographic in the United States: socially liberal and fiscally conservative.
At this point, Johnson has more executive experience – eight years – than Romney and Obama combined. As the GOP continues its tragicomic nominating process, Johnson’s words that he did not leave the Republican Party but rather that the party left him will resonate not only with unsatisfied Republicans but receptive Democrats and independents as well. With the Libertarian convention scheduled for early May, it’s only a matter of time until Gary Johnson bursts onto the national scene. Obama holds all the cards when it comes to defeating whomever the GOP nominates, but he doesn’t hold the wild card. That game-changer belongs to Johnson alone, and astute political observers fully expect it to be played.
