Gary Johnson in Virginia - CLARENCE THOMAS is the type of jurist he would elect-

Once a Republican, always a Republican

Earlier Monday, Johnson told students at Liberty University that Justice Clarence Thomas is the type of jurist he would nominate to the U.S. Supreme Court as president.

“With regard to Supreme Court justices, it would be an issue of justices ruling on the basis of original intent of the Constitution,” Johnson said in a question and answer session following his remarks at the nation’s largest evangelical university.

“I think that Judge Thomas has probably been at the forefront of the kind of a judge that I would like to appoint.”

Libertarians want government to do as little as possible, and Clarence Thomas has already nailed that.
