60 reasons in 60 days to vote Gary Johnson President in 2012

Reason #55 - Started a business.

An entrepreneur. Takes risks. Worked hard. Worked harder. And worked even harder. In his own words, "You show up on time, you work hard." Anyone can start a business. Anyone can make a business succeed but few do. Governor Gary Johnson started a business. That fact alone speaks volumes to you if you have an entrepreneurial spirit.

Have you ever wanted to start your own business? You know the anxiety, the stress, the fear even, of taking the plunge don't you? Here's a college student just going door-to-door selling his ability to fix things around the house. Now he's going state-to-state trying to sell us his ability to fix things in this country. Why don't we give him a shot? Could it be any worse than what the Dems and Reps have done over the last twelve years?

Reason #54 - Worked hard to pay his way through college.

In the last reason I referred to that college student who started his own business by just going around selling his ability to fix things around the house. This business he started wasn't an end in itself. It was the means to an end so to speak. He was using it to better himself, to further himself, to expand his horizons and work his way through a degree in college. College costs money, and for all intents and purposes he paid his own way through. How? Good ole blood, sweat, and tears.

This is a great analogy for what it's going to take to fix things around this country, "our house". It's going to take good ole blood, sweat, and tears. Let's give him a chance for goodness sake. The other two celebrities are just that: famous people with lots of money and no intentions of fixing broken things. Gary Johnson will fix things. He doesn't owe anybody any favors, he isn't funded by lobbies or corporations. He's a hard working American who knows the value of good ole blood, sweat, and tears.

Reason #53 - Grew a small business into a real success story

Talk about your run-of-the-mill, red-white-and blue, American success story. A college student starts working in his spare time to pay his way through college. He works that part-time effort into a small business. He then works that small business into "one of the largest construction firms in New Mexico with over 1,000 employees." Gary Johnson website 2012.

You know how that happens? Easy. It takes 60-80 hour work weeks. It takes sleepless nights, long grueling, exhausting days. It takes unbelievable and relentless pressure from deadlines, projects, promises. It takes honoring your word, dedication to quality, and focus. It takes drive and determination in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Then one day you wake up and your business is growing. The unbelievably hard work and untiring effort begins to pay off. See, it's easy.

How do you fix this country? Easy. It starts by not electing that which we have elected for so long that there is no real difference between the two. They both want the same thing, they just look like different ways of getting there. It starts by electing someone with no interest in propagating the status quo. It starts by electing someone like Gary Johnson.

60 reasons in 60 days to vote Gary Johnson President in 2012

Reason #58: The man climbed Mt. Everest

Reason #57: The man competed in Hawaii's invitation-only Ironman Triathlon Championships

Reason #56: The man is an endurance athlete

It's difficult to imagine how I could possibly expound on these reasons. These reasons alone make Gov. Gary Johnson hands-down the coolest candidate running for President this election year 2012. If you are an athlete, an aspiring athlete, or a dreamer athlete, this man will inspire you. According to one of his ads, and we have no reason to believe he would be lying about it, he scaled Mt. Everest with frost-bitten toes and a leg still recovering from a fracture. Again, that is just plain cool.

Mountain bike races, endurance foot races, cycling, etc. You name it. It seems that Gary Johnson has done it. Here is a link to Gov. Johnson's website so you can read his bio for yourself. In fact these reasons are so cool, you may see them again in our list of top 60 reasons to vote him in.

Top that Mr. Romney and Mr. Obama. It's hard to imagine that you could.

60 reasons in 60 days to vote Gary Johnson President in 2012

Reason #59: Gary Johnson has more executive experience than either Mitt Romney or Barack Obama.

As governor of New Mexico for 8 years, Gary Johnson has served at a governing executive post longer than either presidential candidate from the two major parties.

If you pull up resumes, and set them side by side and asked yourself the question, who is the most qualified and most experienced candidate for this office? The answer is clear: Gary Johnson. It is infuriating that the Republican party is actively pursuing the removal of Gov. Johnson's name from the ballot in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Oklahoma. When asked why the Republican party, along with CNN, collaborated to keep him out of the debates by Martin Bashir, Gov. Johnson answered succinctly, "Well, because I am going to be talking about issues that aren't being talked about by other candidates..."

Listen to the four minute interview that aired on Wednesday the 12th here: 


And there you have it, he's gonna shoot straight folks. No funny business.
