A lot of those Ron Paul supporters are moving over to this examined Gary Johnson he's a libertarian presidential.
To -- -- former New Mexico governor of course.
Now officially libertarian candidate for president's.
Somehow they let Gary in this building might have no idea why but then again user then again they -- -- -- they'll let me inside this building here and I don't know whether I was the -- so so good Italian American banker but anyway.
By Gary Johnson is -- governor very good to see it's.
You're.
You departed -- is going to -- indeed not even that moment.
The notion that we need to balance the federal budget now and and the wars I think it's a message that's not being heard and it's important I think people really do -- -- and the wars I think people really recognize that.
This spending is not sustainable -- balancing the budget immediately known a lot of states -- -- very very well the argument is.
You -- Colorado.
-- and 22 I tipped a Colorado to run.
Right you're right yeah tonight some of other states didn't sit.
It's it to senator Barack Obama -- so I don't know whether it needs are wise but your pain in the neck.
Well if if both parties and up listening to what's being said here and realize that you can -- survive politically.
At a minimum this is changing the debate and that you have to get in on the did it exactly well where does that stand.
Well I gotta be at 15% in the polls and I'm not in the polls so how do you get it to 15% if you're not in the polls but the -- that I -- men you know it's it's and it's not too bad.
I got invited here to address Paul -- now which I did.
And given that opportunity and security -- work to get inside here obviously.
-- -- I hear -- -- gave me clearance to get in here is well I don't.
Anyway you'll hear it I'm I'm here and the talk went really well I don't know fight.
I couldn't have been received better it was -- Ron Paul supporters -- they're good soldiers but they're not across the board happy campers and an end date.
They speak in positive in complemented terms about the ticket -- Even when I had Ron Paul on talking about Paul Ryan he's not a big fan of the Ryan budget society doesn't cut enough.
So a lot of the the Ryan budget balancing the budget in 28 years and that's incumbent on non growth occurring also so.
About if we start to addresses some 2013.
And that's the promising you know you argued that elected president you would start on this and get the thing balanced by one.
Well I would submit the balanced budget immediately whether congress goes along with that are not -- I think we need to elect somebody who's gonna take on this debate in this discussion.
Right now there's that there's a debate over.
You know not cutting Medicare holding Medicare intact we have to cut Medicare or we're gonna find ourselves.
In name monetary collapse is your view that you don't like Medicare or that in its present form it can't survive -- -- -- kids can't survive that are spending I would maintain is not sustainable.
Other people recognize that and very simply a monetary collapses on the money that we have and our pocket doesn't buy I think.
Because of the accompanying inflation it's gonna go along with borrowing and printing money to the tune of 43 cents out of every dollar that we're spending.
Are you surprise and it might change differently governor this year but.
Third party candidates are always talked a great deal about Ross Perot was the last clearly successful one he could've won the whole thing -- -- did not imploded DM.
But it's generally -- the George Wallace Soviet dominated good -- John Anderson.
But it's tough it's it's up -- you've got a tough road ahead.
Well and and so offering up what I'm gonna argue is not the third choice but the only choice and really important tough facts here is is that.
There are only going to be three candidates on the ballot in all fifty states and I'm one of those chemicals -- on all fifty states -- how well we -- -- to say it's that we had the biggest issue with we've we've overcome so.
Although this is a process and we got about ten states to go -- not expecting.
And Annie put it that believe me their problems that every.
Decade it's really hard to get on the ballot in all -- when people say you're a spoiler.
Well.
No I will embrace it because that draws little bit of attention away from section so please call me its fourth -- -- -- -- security's been alerted that your here cut right analyst day we hope to have video of the governor being carried away in in in chains there but -- he does he does raise a lot of eyebrows that a lot of people.
Are certainly paying attention to what he's been saying whether you agree -- disagree.
So Gary Johnson thank you very very much you very very aren't you -- well our well and let me -- have.
