I would say very exaggerated. What about his stance on illegal immigration scares you?

Possibly. But he managed in New Mexico. And more importantly he would be able to keep a lot of crap from passing that Obama or Romney would sign off on in an instant. I think he'd do better than you give him credit for. Especially if enough people backed him and yelled at their representatives or senators to go for what he wanted to get done.

Of course, he is a longshot for winning the race, I'll admit that. He has my vote regardless. I won't vote for either Obama or Romney, because I see that as giving into something that I can't agree with.

What I really want to see, is for everyone to know that he's in the race. I want people to hear his views, and realize that there's more to politics than just what you hear from the usual Democrat/Republican outlets. So many people don't even know that other points of view even exist.

Obama and Romney are not the same, and it only takes cursory research of their policy positions to see that. They have completely different rhetoric on tax policy, health care, the role of government in protecting the environment and the economy, among other things.

And, frankly, unbridled libertarianism will do a heck of a lot more damage to America then Obama's mild conservatism will ever do.

Obama's mild conservatism

We had higher taxes and more government regulation in the 1950s, and our economy was doing a heck of a lot better then then it is now.

He is pro-illegal immigration. That's what I don't like. Other than that he is pretty good but his illegal immigration stance cancels out any good.

If you say they are the same, then you are either trying to make your own candidate look good, or you have not cared enough to pay attention to the campaign. They are two very different people with different policy positions (albeit Romney has had to flip flop on a variety of his old positions and policies to get to where he is and reflect the stance of the extremists controlling his party).

And, frankly, unbridled libertarianism will do a heck of a lot more damage to America then Obama's mild conservatism will ever do. One only needs to look at the great depression of the 1930s to see where decades of small government not regulating the behavior of corporations will do to an economy. The current problem isn't too much government control. The problem is not enough. We had higher taxes and more government regulation in the 1950s, and our economy was doing a heck of a lot better then then it is now.

Gary Johnson looks exactly the same as Romney and Obama to me. A few differences here and there, but he would be just as damaging as Romney and Obama.

The thing about Johnson is that if he actually wins he won't have any support in either the House or Senate. He will be there all on his own, and I doubt he'd be able to actually get anything passed that he wants.

Not from my understanding. Source.

Simplify Legal Immigration:

• It should be easier for a potential immigrant to get a work visa. Potential immigrants should pass a background check, and then be issued a Social Security card, which would allow them to pay income, payroll, and all other taxes workers pay.
• There should be a two-year grace period for illegal immigrants to attain work visas so they can continue contributing to America and begin taking part in American society openly.
• Immigrants with temporary work visas should have access to the normal procedures for gaining permanent status and citizenship, and should be able to bring their families to the U.S. after demonstrating ability to support them financially.

Tackle Illegal Immigration:

• Legalizing marijuana will reduce border violence and illegal immigration significantly, decreasing the U.S.-Mexican drug trade by 70 percent. Without a monopoly on the marijuana trade, Mexican drug cartels will have vastly diminished incentives to violate U.S. law and risk capture.
• Streamline the legal immigration process to reduce illegal immigration and allow the U.S. to know who enters the country and for what reasons.
• Enforce a 'one strike, you're out' rule for immigrants who circumvent the streamlined work visa process.

He acknowledges that there are many illegals here now, and promotes a way of allowing them to be here legally. Deporting all of them would consume ungodly amounts of resources, and I think it's a sensible solution to those currently here.

I also think his solution for solving the illegal immigration problem is sound. It'd reduce the challenge of coming here legally, reduce a large reason of why they come here illegally (drug wars), and be more strict on those fewer people who do continue to violate the law. Here's an alternate source if you're curious to read a bit more. I have never read anywhere that he is pro illegal immigration, however.
