For starters have the ads be 30 seconds or 1 minute in length.

A couple of billion dollars would get Gary elected, IMO.
A few hundred million would go a long way too. Everything else seems to me, at least, to be in place.
I’m in Vegas, BTW. Will try to bLOG here about Governor Johnson’s UNLV rally

Excellent ad, Joe.
Now you guys gotta get it on TV.
Wonder what you need to do that?

What’s amazing to me is that millions of Americans, GOP and Demos alike, will buy lottery tickets, in hopes of striking it rich. But in an America with more liberty, their chances of getting truly rich through hard work and talent go up dramatically. They have no problem with the longshot odds of the lottery, but even if they like what Johnson is saying, they hesitate to vote for him because he “cannot win.” If everyone who liked Johnson and ever bought a lottery ticket, and who thinks that their one little vote doesn’t matter at all, would take a chance this one time, Johnson would — win or lose — change US Presidential politics forever. That is the power that the voters have, which they GIVE UP when they won’t stray beyond the boundaries of the two-party scam. It has baffled me for decades.
I think he is saying something more like “Give this libertarian thing a try. After we try it, if we don’t like it, we can put the clowns back in office and laugh at them again.”
I don’t know if I like the whole “Be Libertarian with me for ONE election.”, its like he is basically saying, vote for me this one time, but never again. (Because the assumption is that he will run again in 2016)
