    Anyone ever hear of the former New Mexico Governor, Gary Johnson? Gary E. Johnson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    In office from 95-03, Johnson has been a leading voice of dissent against the war on drugs and has gained a great reputation from pro-legalization groups such as NORML. Even Marc Emory has stated he would like to see a 2012 run from him.

    There has been some speculation that he may be the heir to the "Ron Paul revolution", as they hold a similar ideology (anti-war libertarians) and Johnson endorsed Paul's presidential run. He has proven his integrity and electability through two terms. Johnson has said that he is considering a run in 2012, and I think by that election we may have a perfect storm in the political world to actually allow him to have a real shot at the nomination.

    The guy has a real interesting life as well, starting out as a door-to-door handyman and eventually starting up his own business (conveniently named "Big J") which was successful enough to fund and win his own race to the governorship of a heavily Democratic state. Physically, the guys pretty much a badass. After his governorship he climbed Mount Everest. He is a fan of hang-gliding, parachuting, and runs, bikes, or swims two hours every day, a routine he starts at 5 AM, and even did so while he was governor.

    We need a man like this in Washington, hell we need more governors like this.
