An Open Letter to President Barack Obama:
Mr. President, you told America today that a vote for Gary Johnson is a vote for Trump. As it turns out, you were only a tiny bit off.
The fact is, a vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote for the Patriot Act, just as a vote for Donald J. Trump is. A vote for Clinton is a vote to continue the War on Drugs, just as a vote for Trump is. A vote for Clinton is a vote to continue occupying and bombing other countries, creating enemies and wasting money - just as a vote for Trump is.
A vote for Clinton is a vote for most of the same objectionable policies that Trump supports - and quite frankly, for the same objectionable policies that you supported for the last eight years. In terms of policy, a vote for Clinton is a vote for Trump.
The reality: a vote for Johnson is a vote to reduce or end the War on Drugs, allowing drug businesses to settle disputes in court, eliminating most drug related violence. A vote for Johnson is a vote to stop meddling in the affairs of foreign nations, reducing enemies and making Americans safer. A vote for Gary Johnson is a vote to end the Patriot Act, protecting American dignity and privacy. It is a vote to pardon Edward Snowden, a true American hero.
A vote for Johnson is a vote to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education, allowing more innovative education and ending Common Core. It is a vote to eliminate the Department of Homeland Security and the invasive incursions on privacy perpetrated by the TSA. It is a vote to massively reduce wasteful spending, and to reduce taxes and debt accordingly.
A vote for Johnson is a vote for policies diametrically opposed to those advocated by Clinton, Trump, and you.
Mr. President, if you think I am wrong, that the differences between Trump and Clinton are greater than those between Trump and Johnson, or Clinton and Johnson, you can help prove that. You can sign the petition athttps://www.johnsonweld.com/
