One of the most important questions asked was;
Is there anything else you’d like to add so voters know why you’re running and why you should enter the Florida executive office?
He replied (in part);
….most voters are quickly becoming fed up with both the democrat and republican parties. I often ask myself why, after so many years of these parties being in power, are people just now coming to realize they don’t like what is going on. The answer, believe it or not, is because their Libertarian leanings are surfacing.
You see, most people, by nature, are Libertarians. Everyone wants to be free. While this entire time people were willing to tolerate the intrusions because they were minor, the government impositions are no longer trivial. They are affecting the very ability for people to survive.
As a member of the Libertarian party, I present the only viable option in a political party that will answer the needs and solve the conundrum currently facing the people. Anything other than a Libertarian in the executive office will only end up as more of the same. The people are tired of business as usual and want change, change in their favor, and I am the only candidate in a political party that can provide the desired change.
