The Libertarian Party needs to mobilize behind ballot reform if it wants to prevail against the two party system.

Oh yeah that'd be great. With Gary Johnson we could have mandatory vaccines, praise Hillary once a week on Sunday, and have carbon taxes to boot. He's not a libertarian and there's not enough gaslighting in the world that could make him one. He's denied some of these things since -- and the videos are now hard to find, go figure. Yet, I've heard him speak highly of Hillary, endorse mandatory vaccines and voice his support of carbon taxes. That was all the while he was on a previous libertarian ticket. If that doesn't scream fraud and liar, I don't know what does. His partner in crime, Weld, is no good either.
Come on you're accusing me of gas lighting at the drop of a hat like a militant SJW feminist while making a case someone isn't libertarian enough? Why do you do this?
Yeah I'm with you all the way that Gary Johnson is not as libertarian as myself, but he's a lot more libertarian than, what would you say, 99 U.S. senators out of 100? And not just a lot more– like substantially a lot more. He'd at least be trying to get the U.S. and Americans out of these god damned wars.
Perhaps your right, maybe he would get us out of these wars? Yet, what do you think the likelihood is that he would if he cannot respect individual liberty enough to allow people to choose what not to put in their bodies? Here is the vibe I get from Johnson, I think he's been recruited to run for the party as controlled opposition and he didn't do any of the required homework. If he would use force and allow government to vaccinate your children without permission at great potential risk.. Autism, Autism like symptoms, Guillain-Barre syndrome, narcolepsy and fainting sicknesses. If he'd be willing to do that then who is to say that he wouldn't change his mind on war or foreign entanglements? If you really do believe in Johnson and weren't trying to gaslight people with this post then I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. Yet if you do believe those things I'd strongly consider taking a harder look at those things he did in the past. There is nothing libertarian about carbon taxes, mandatory vaccines, not to mention his kind words for Hillary. I think he's since changed his position on those for popularity's sake, but I personally think he's someone's sock puppet.
So you think someone like met with him and told him to run as controlled opposition? Who was it? Hillary people? Deep State people? How does that meeting play out in your head? What do they tell him they want him to do and what do they offer him? I love conspiracy theories.
I'd call it more of a hunch based on the fact that Johnson didn't seem to know anything about the principles of the party whose banner he's running under. I can't quite call it a conspiracy theory because in order for a conspiracy to take place the two would have to be planning on committing an unlawful act. This, at it's best seems merely a deceptive act.
Perhaps there is some illegal and undisclosed campaign funding but I'm not money smart enough to go down those rabbit holes. The ideas you mentioned seem plausible. I'd expect there would be secret contracts with non-disclosure arrangements laid out which specify exactly when the candidate will endorse the party member favored by the individual (or group) that's providing the funding.
Have you ever wondered if Ron Paul or Alex Jones was controlled opposition?
I haven't put much serious thought into it. Paul is known as Dr. No because I think for the most part his votes are always in line with the constitution and they keep pushing legislation that violates it. Jones seems consistent too, I don't think he could have faked his dedication for all of these years. 30 years and four hour radio shows, it would be ridiculous if he were. What say you, anything lead you to believe that they may be?
