Did Mark just close his comment by saying that he didn’t say anything?
I hope that the Gary Johnson campaign is not paying for these video spots, or not paying much.
They seem to be aimed at the converted and not at those who need to hear the message.
Video campaigning goes along with video blogging. Gary would have to create a reality TV show around him if there is to be any following that would respond to the video ads. Today people have to “Know, like and trust you” before they will even consider anything you say or buy your products or vote for you. A video from someone they have no real clue about is not effective.
The above is my 2-cents, and my opinions. I am by no means stating facts or absolutes. The opinions are mine alone and should not attributed to any party, faction or group. The opinions stated should not be taken to be for or against anyone, any party or any position. Lastly, my opinions may change at anytime, and even contradict previous opinions.
My mistake.
There’s someone else who posts here frequently using that handle.
Looking at the IP and “email address” you left shows that you indeed are apparently someone other than that person.
My apologies for not checking earlier.
Paulie @6. I think you’re confusing me with somebody else who might have used the same moniker.
@4 And you were calling *me* a “communist”? LOL…I did not know this about you.
Freeing the economy from the shackles of mismanaged (on an epic scale) government spending, crippling taxation and red tape will unleash an economic boom that will help the working class and low income folks more than anything else possibly could.
That’s what happened in a limited way when Johnson was Governor, with the best job growth in the country.
And that’s just a tiny taste of what we would do federally.
Unfortunately Robert is correct, the “prebate” is actually a giant welfare guarantee. That would dampen the effect of a Johnson job boom if we were to somehow win.
Very well done. Maybe a touch TOO slick.
JS 4, no, GJ’s plan is for a national sales tax with a prebate for the least well off. Depending on their consumption patterns, Mitt and the 1%ers might pay more taxes annually….
No capital gains tax? Oh, good, now Mitt Romney and other one percenters won’t have to pay any taxes.
How come no mention of Johnson’s austerity measures — you know, the $1.4 trillion cuts in federal spending that will devastate working-class, low-income and elderly Americans?
This is a good spot. He is sounding better with each new one.
Clever… thanks for stopping by. Now get lost.
Yawn!
