No doubt about it, Johnson needs to be included in the debates to show people that there is more than the lesser of two evils. The two-party system has controlled this country for long enough, it is time we have an independent in office, someone who can act without special interests, someone who doesn't have to fall into their party lines, only to snub a vote, some who actually cares about the general public, rather than the corporations! VOTE GJ, Just give him a chance PLEASE!

Absolutely. Governor Johnson should be included in the debates. Gary Johnson has the credibility and platform which makes him a contender. Get Gary involved in the debate and let the people decide. America deserves a strong third party candidate.

Absolutely! Johnson should not only be included in future GOP debates (not that there will be any); he should be included in all future Presidential debates. It's about time that we had some real choice!

Most Certainly Gary Johnson should be included in Presidential debates. Should not even be a question!!

Gary Johnson & Jim Gray. The only candidates that make SENSE. His voice MUST be heard in the debates.

do we even have to ask the question whether a candidate who has received taxpayer funding for his campaign and who will be on the ballot in all 50 states should be allowed to be heard in the Presidential debates? An reasonable man would say "of course"

Of course he should - it will force a little more content into the debates. Romney and Obama debate each other like schoolchildren - more bickering than actually debating. Besides, the two agree on a majority of the major issues, so they just talk about minor differences and make them seem like they are major. Including Gary Johnson should be a no-brainer. I think having Ron Paul in there would be good as well, because his ideas/policies are more in line with the majority of the US Population than the others, he is just less known/understood.

Go Gary! I enjoy reading his interviews, and he is the ONLY candidate that I search for in the news. He is someone those of us who are against social conservatives can get behind. There are people in this country who are fiscally conservative who hate social conservatism, believe it or not, GOP. :)
