Dilbert Creator Scott Adams Endorses Gary Johnson For President (dilbert.com)
Long-time Slashdot reader SonicSpike writes: Scott Adams, creator of the popular comic, Dilbert, has decided to endorse
Libertarian Party nominee Gary Johnson for President. He writes at his blog:
"Clinton supporters have been telling me for a few days that any visible support for Trump makes you a supporter of sex abuse.
From a persuasion standpoint, that actually makes sense. If people see it that way, that's the reality you have to deal with. I choose to not be part of that reality so I moved my endorsement to Gary Johnson. I encourage all Clinton supporters to do the same, and for the same reason...
"To be fair, Gary Johnson is a pot head who didn't know what Allepo was. I call that relatable. A President Johnson administration might bring with it some operational risks, and policy risks, but at least he won't slime you by association and turn you into some sort of cheerleader for sex abuse in the way you would if you voted for the Clintons or Trump."
The essay concludes, "You might enjoy my book because you're not sure if I'm really endorsing Gary Johnson or just saying so to protect my brand."

Adams and Johnson are both spectacularly, colossally stupid bastards. Anyone who would put any stock whatever in what either of them says or "believes" (if either of them can be said to have any true beliefs at all) is a useless waste of oxygen. So the two primary candidates are an evil, hateful bitch intent on destroying the country and a slow-witted self-destructive bastard who can't construct coherent sentences. And neither of the snowball's-chance-in-hell alternative candidates (Johnson and Stein) has as much qualification and suitability for the job as any of the squirrels in my back yard.
I don't wish either Adams or Johnson any personal harm, but the world would be a less awful place if they both STFU.
She "performed terribly"? Do you have any basic understanding of international politics?
I don't respond to AC's.
