It's Official

Gary Johnson is running for president

Whatever his ultimate chances, Johnson will be a very healthy addition to the debate--or, as several candidates will likely come to see him, an unwelcome thorn of logic in the side of their carefully constructed rhetoric.

How so? The only memorable issue he debates is legalizing dope.

LOL! That's exactly what I think when I hear Johnson's name--doper.

Healthy addition to the debate? Really? With all due respect, if trotting out marginal candidates like Johnson is viewed as providing a healthy addition to the debate, one should be gravely concerned about the health of the debate. Does anyone truly view Johnson as the transformative (read "Reagan-esque") figure that will restore America to it's former greatness? Really?
