Sh*t won't change until you get up and wipe.

So our best option is CEO of a weed company? I'm afraid "weed" be up in smoke with this guy.

Gary Johnson Named CEO of Cannabis Sativa, Inc.

Gov. Gary Johnson has made a name for himself as a marijuana advocate. Now he plans to cash in with Cannabis Sativa, Inc.
Gary Johnson can add the title of $50 Million Man to his resume that includes former two-term Republican governor of New Mexico and the 2012 Libertarian Party presidential nominee. That’s how much the thinly-traded shares of Cannabis Sativa, Inc. - listed as CBDS on the Over-the-Counter stock market - gained in total value in the days since the company named Johnson as its president and chief executive officer on June 30.
With the Associated Press, Reuters, Gawker.com and plenty of other news outlets picking up the story, shares of Cannabis Sativa, Inc. jumped to $8 from $4 in just a few hours in brisk trades.
Overlooked in the green rush is the company’s status as a development stage outfit aiming to sell marijuana products in Colorado, Washington State and anywhere else where pot is eventually legal. That basically means the company has yet to produce a profit. Yet investors are betting some day it will, with a fairly big name like Johnson at the helm.
Johnson: 'I don’t know if I’m the Bill Gates of marijuana, but we might be the Microsoft of marijuana. The whole country is going to legalize marijuana in 10 years, and then so goes the world.'
In the world of the stock market, Cannabis Sativa, Inc. remains in the purely speculative realm of penny stocks, where several marijuana-inspired companies now reside.
But it has a good story. Joining Johnson in the company is Steve Kubby, the 1998 Libertarian Party of California candidate for Governor and an author on drug policy reform. Kubby is now chairman of Cannabis Sativa Inc. Both are long-time supporters of cannabis legalization. Johnson hopes to deliver products “that could change the world for the better.”
However, citing an old Doonesbury cartoon from the '90s dot-com boom: So far the company’s only major product is its stock.
Under a deal to buy Kubby’s company, Kush, Cannabis Sativa, Inc. will research, develop and license cannabis formulas, edibles, topicals, strains, recipes and delivery systems, license from Kubby a medicinal cannabis strain called NZT, and sell a proprietary cannabis lozenge delivery methodology and a trauma cream formula, among other plans. About the lozenge, Johnson raves, "It's very, very pleasant. Rather than a go-to-sleep marijuana, it’s a clean-your-house marijuana.”
Playing up the media interest around his new job, Johnson adds with hyperbole: “I don’t know if I’m the Bill Gates of marijuana, but we might be the Microsoft of marijuana. The whole country is going to legalize marijuana in 10 years, and then so goes the world.”
High hopes indeed, but you never know. If Cannabis Sativa, Inc. could sell sound bites along with grass, it would be challenging Microsoft already. But somebody is going to make billions on legal weed sooner or later. The Budweiser of bud may be closer than you think. Trust me, somebody, perhaps even Cannabis Sativa, Inc., is going to hit it big.

Any adult should be able to make that choice if that's something they've thought through and decided to consume.

Entrepreneur. He found a niche and is filling it. Smart business man. It is now a legal substance in several states which means he is not breaking the law. Any law that protects oneself from themselves is an unjust law. Thanks for the heads up on this company, just looked at their stock. It's now at .45/share and has been as high as 11.25.

He's going to make money, and doesn't sound like it will be going bankrupt like your nominee's business. Don't make me pull up Trump and his questionable background. And in case you missed the opening lines, he is a Republican who grabbed the Libertarian nominee. Will that open your eyes a bit?

Yup....CEO of a Weed Company.... also Climber of 6 of the 7 worlds tallest mountains (including Everest). Also someone who successfully curbed big government in his state and returned it SOUNDLY to a good fiscal standing. A person who is also a Staunch supporter of not only Gun Rights and 2nd amendment, but is in support of every single one of your rights as an American citizen. Simply put a man who has done nearly everything right for his country his whole life. A man who's stated policies actually make sense and offer VIABLE solutions to real problems that this country faces.

But instead you propose that our "best" option is some raging crack headed fool who has made a name for himself out of failing with both his and other peoples money in such spectacular fashions time and time again.. Said fool's every voiced idea is simply a push, to hit sound bites that his campaign has identified as being hot topics. Said fool has openly lambasted the republican party as being full of fools and idiots who will vote for anyone, as long as they are saying what they want to hear.

Brother, i will take that pot smoker over you and yours every damned day of the year.

[AceArcher]

Happy to say that i am 100% voting for Gary Johnson again this time. The old lies of "but if you vote for a 3rd your contributing to the problem" be damned.

You are contributing to the problem by continuing to vote for a party (either democrat or republican) that are plainly in cahoots, and who are doing everything they can to serve their corporate masters.

It has worked pretty good the past 2 pres elections for them. We know how they are going to vote we just need to beat them. We can't beat them by dividing up our votes. At this point I feel that it's more important to beat them than it is to vote for someone that has absolutely no chance to win.

If you would take a step back and look at what you are saying it's exactly what arguing against

Trump or Cruz can win. They are not like your last two Republican Party candidates like Romney or McCain. cruz is an actual conservative Trump is trump and listening to some of these Bernie supporters they are very against Hillary and will stay home or vote for a 3rd party if she gets the nomination. She will get the nomination

[Baychamp1]

After the disruption in Chicago @ the Trump rally maybe DJT needs to think about hiring Gary. With his Spider Man like skills he could have scaled the Sears Tower & dropped blunts into the crowd, within 15 min everbodys headed to either the donut shop or Taco Bell

[scott craft]

It's going to be interesting to see who wins this election. Just as most of you guys are going to vote for Trump no matter what to keep Hillary out of office from what I've seen most of the democrats are going to vote for Hillary no matter what to keep Trump out of office.

As far as voting for a third party candidate I'd rather vote for one of those that has a platform that more closely aligns with what I'm looking for in a president than the popular candidate that I disagree with. Maybe if more of us would start supporting third party candidates that we can believe in a third party would become viable. Meanwhile most of us will hold our noses and vote for someone we really don't like mainly because the republican candidate isn't quite as bad as the democratic candidate. Wash, rinse, repeat.

If the Republican Party would get out of their own damn way, we wouldn't be having this discussion. Say what you want about the Democrat party, but they have their $#!+ together, while the Republican candidates look dumber than a stage full of rodeo clowns with their d!€k measuring contests and all. That's why we will not see a Republican hold the POTUS position for at least another decade. A true libertarian candidate (fiscally conservative and socially liberal) with the backing of the Republican's money would be one Hell of a combination. We'd be watching the Democrat party die right now instead of the Republican Party.

I totally agree! They ran out John McCain with Sarah Palin and the Mitt Romney and now Donald Trump is leading for the nomination. These are horrible candidates. The only reason a republican might win this year is because Hillary is such a horrible candidate.

I respect McCain for his service, but he is a closeted Democrat. He didn't need that fool Palin to help him lose. Romney ran a horrible campaign to lose to Obama with such a low approval rating going into the 2012 election. For that, I blame the Republican Party. Once you are their candidate, they own you. Plain and simple. Watch Trump do a 180 from his current persona if he gets the nomination. It was already evident in the debate Thursday night. Democrats win because they can count on their voter block to walk through sleet, rain, or snow to push that button for a D. Republican's will stay home if their candidate didn't make the cut. If the Republicans would drop the hard line stance on social issues, they may stand a chance. As far as I can tell, they are too tete dur to do it. So I'll sit here and drink beer on my porch, and pay higher taxes to do it, while the Democrats run this country in the ground with help from the Republican Party.

Last election Libertarian Party got .9 pct. of the vote, they won't even know who their candidate is until May from what I understand, not saying they don't have some really good ideas, just so unorganized & underfunded it's unfortunately not their time yet, so we're stuck with what we got.

[cajun bill]

they are too tete dur to do it

Love it!

I completely agree with you and that's why I'll be casting my vote for whoever the republican candidate is. As much as I wish this weren't the case, I'm not naive. I know how the game is played. Until Libertarians hold a handful of nationally significant offices, a vote for them equals a vote for a Democrat. I'm saying the Republican Party as a whole need to reevaluate their position. Hold fast to fiscal conservatism and lighten up on social issues. Hell, if they would just agree to legalize marijuana, that would make a world of difference on their acceptance to independents. Let's face it, most of us in south Louisiana are high functioning drunks. What's the difference between a 6 pack a night habit and getting a little Chinese eyes at night, other than the government telling you it's bad? I though Republican's were supposed to be leery of government regulations? And for the record, I do not smoke weed nor will I when it is legalized..... I'm a drunk. Not a pothead.

So we've got Al Sharpton, Whoopi Goldberg, Raven Symone and now Miley Cyrus threatning to leave the US if Trump gets elected. There's 4 more good reasons to vote for Trump. DJT is like a wrecking ball!

Tomorrow (tuesday), Florida & Ohio, Florida's looks like a done deal, but if Trump also wins Ohio over current Gov. Kasich, it's over. Game, Set, Match
