WASHINGTON, DC - NOVEMBER 03: Gary H. Johnson Jr. (L), campaign manager for U.S. Senate candidate Greg Sowards (C) of New Mexico, argues about capitalism and politics with Jacques Bataille (2nd L) of Phoenix, Arizona, and Turtle Navoo (2nd R) of Huntsville, Alabama, during a rally organized by National Nurses United in Laffayette Square across from the White House November 3, 2011 in Washington, DC.
