http://www.aol.com/article/2016/07/2...nson/21440156/Marvin is just the latest member of the legendary political family to speak out against Trump. George W. Bush was quoted by Politico as saying he was worried he "will be the last Republican president."
...
Jeb, who was at one point the favorite to secure the Republican nomination, repeatedly clashed with the outspoken billionaire during the campaign. He recently revealed that he won't vote for either Trump or rival Hillary Clinton, saying he doesn't believe either candidate would uphold the Constitution.

I'd guess this is some sort of back channel endorsement from the whole Bush clan.
A Bush endorsing Johnson is the best reason I've heard yet to not vote for Johnson.
Lol at the Bushes endorsing a guy who campaigns in a peace t-shirt. The only reason Johnson is getting this endorsement is because Trump busted Jeb's balls debate after debate until he became a national disgrace. There's no similarity whatsoever on the issues, whatever kind of libertarian Gary is or isn't.
Marvin is the least politically active on the front-side (the showman aspect of politics), but recall that he was on the board of directors for the security company that did security for the WTC complex, Dulles Airport and American Airlines before 9/11. The security company would have helped clear the workers on the elevator shafts to plant the nano-thermite explosives and they would have been responsible for the flight drills and allowing the terrorists into secured areas on the day of the attacks.

this should tell anyone all they need to know about how libertarian Gary johnson is. The LP just crashed and burned.
Lol. Gotta love the Trumpsters complaining that Johnson isn't libertarian enough.
I mean, I'm not a big fan of Johnson, but come on.

You're not concerned about the sudden love between the Bushes and Johnson? I am, and I was planning on not voting at all before I heard about this.Lol. Gotta love the Trumpsters complaining that Johnson isn't libertarian enough.
I mean, I'm not a big fan of Johnson, but come on.
Johnson is a weak ass libertarian and he'd still be ten times better than Killary or Trump. It's the hard truth that we have to swallow.
There's very little if any ideological common ground between them.
So I'd assume that this is the Bushes trying to resuscitate their public image by distancing themselves from the impending Trumptastrophe.
If there were any chance of Johnson actually winning, there is 0% chance they'd be supporting him.
Johnson is terrible, but I am curious, why does this concern you? I'm not thinking of any realistic scenario in which Gary Johnson actually takes the election, so why does it matter?
Also you should probably stick with not voting or write someone in

This is what selling out looks like.
Meh. I'll just leave my thought from the other thread here. Saves typing...
Certainly I'm not making a claim that this is decisively what is happening. It's just what I personally think is happening.

Because he may well have an impact on who ends up winning, and as I live here, it has a direct impact on me. Refusing to vote because of a fatally flawed system is one thing, pretending like that system has no impact on people living here and acting like an Amish person is quite another.Johnson is terrible, but I am curious, why does this concern you?

I didn't say I was going to vote in this election anyway, I was saying that this decision was made BEFORE I found out that Gary Johnson has courted the Neo-con vote successfully (or more likely it has courted him).
Yes,, its true,, Jeb! like his brother GWB is a big proponent of upholding the Constutition which is one, of many reasons i liked himJeb, who was at one point the favorite to secure the Republican nomination, repeatedly clashed with the outspoken billionaire during the campaign.

I like the word 'Trumptastrophe'. (I'd like it better if it wasn't so likely to become a reality.)
The Bushes may be trying to resuscitate their image, but I also think this is revenge for Trump humiliating JEB! repeatedly. (That was pretty sweet, actually. By the end, JEB! was begging for applause in half-filled meeting rooms).
Attempt to split the Repub. vote. FAIL, I suspect.
This isn't even artful. FAIL^2

There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.
It appears that artificial intelligence is at least slightly superior to natural stupidity.
Our words make us the ghosts that we are.
Convincing the world he didn't exist was the Devil's second greatest trick; the first was convincing us that God didn't exist.
What love? Has Johnson reciprocated?
This is probably all a flimsy strategy to defeat Trump.
Trump is either what he appears, or he is part of the Grand Dog And Pony Show (GDAPS). If the latter, we are all $#@!ed. If not, then the shows of animosity are likely real. If real, then Theye are truly vexed by the prospect of his ascension and will try what they can to stifle him. Trotting out yet another Bush with so pathetic an endorsement for Johnson is likely nothing more than a flaccidly desperate attempt at splitting the non-Hillary camp.

I'm probably the only one here who thinks Jeb is kind of a decent guy*?
"I am a bird"
Probably.
"The Patriarch"
Not saying I agree with all of his policy positions but he's a pretty decent human being (for a politician).
"I am a bird"
I remember when his brother seemed that way too.
"The Patriarch"
Well... Compared to the mess right now, Obama as president and either Clinton or Trump as the next one.... GW as president doesn't sound too bad.. Does it ?I remember when his brother seemed that way too.
"I am a bird"
I certainly agree. My point was more that Johnson cant win, and thus I don't see how Bushes supporting him matters. That said if you disagree with me and you think Johnson can win, that would make more sense. I think Johnson may do the best a third party has done since Perot, but I don't think he can win.
My mistake, I thought you meant that you were going to vote because of this. Thank youI didn't say I was going to vote in this election anyway, I was saying that this decision was made BEFORE I found out that Gary Johnson has courted the Neo-con vote successfully (or more likely it has courted him).

Tell me, why do you think the Bushes are supporting him? What do you think they have to gain from doing so?
