We're getting to the point where we're impinging on democratic institutions in this country and I think, you know, it takes a certain - not a suspension of disbelief - but willingness to go along with other people to get the ship of state going forward. I'm not sure that happens in a [Donald] Trump presidency, frankly.

Image
I think Gary Johnson would be capable of being a good chief executive and yes a commander in chief - Aleppo to the contrary, notwithstanding.

Image
I have come to realize that Jesse Helms stands for everything in politics that is anathema to me.
William Weld
Image
I`m a member of Societies of Former World Leaders. And I`ve always been sort of in favor of constructive engagement around the world. And Gary Johnson has influenced me on criminal justice reform. I think I had some influence in discussions with him about the approach to international affairs.

We speak for all citizens of the Commonwealth when we say that society can draw great hope for the future because of the example which these young people are giving by their creative and constructive responses to the challenges which confront our communities and dedication to help those most in need.

Natural resources are so vast that no single individual or business is going to protect them they don't have an incentive to.
William Weld
Image
I think it would be a threat [Donald's Trump presidency] to the conduct of our foreign policy and our position in the world at large.
William Weld
Image
The courts are truly the least dangerous of the three branches of our government.
William Weld
Image
I think in the real world that's probably correct. That would give federal matching funds. It would mean no more ballot access woes.
William Weld
Image
So government acts as a safeguard of our property.
William Weld
Image
I suggest to you that increasing the size of America's economic pie - which can be achieved only if everybody has a seat at the table - is the most important challenge facing our country today.
William Weld
Image
[Donald Trump] would be chaos for the country, I think.
William Weld
Image
There's no Walter Cronkite to give you the final word each evening.
William Weld
Image
Before my tenure, people didn't seem to think that citizens had a right to limit the size of their government.

I think Gary Johnson was probably expressing frustration at a series of pop quizzes. He actually was more authoritative on what to do in Syria before the Aleppo moment than any of the other candidates. And I think he called it about right. There is too many different rebel groups there. And it`s a terribly confused situation.
