21. He's someone who should be considered because he's refreshingly candid |

and not ideologically rigid. Example: while he's known for being against gun control, his actual position is more nuanced; in Montana, where many drive vehicles with a gun rack, the type of gun controls that might be appropriate in an urban area such as Washington DC or New York City do not fit in his opinion. But he recognizes that a local community might want to pass gun control laws that might make more sense for that area; essentially, I believe his view is that locally based gun laws are more appropriate than a federal one size fits all gun control regime. His view is not, "It's guaranteed by the 2nd Amendment, and no government has a right to control what I do with my guns" so often adopted by NRA faithful.
