Adrian Wyllie runs for Florida governor as Libertarian
OF YOUR SCREEN THERE. NO WORD YET ON WHY THE DRIVER WAS ON THE RUN. Janine Stanwood: ALMOST EVERYONE KNOWS RICK SCOTT AND CHARLIE CRIST ARE RUNNING TO GOVERNOR BUT DID YOU KNOW THERE'S A THIRD CANDIDATE IN THE RACE. HIS NAME IS ADRIAN WILY AND HE'S RUNNING AS A LIBERTARIAN. HE RECENTLY CAME TO LOCAL10 ON AND SAT DOWN WITH OUR SENIOR POLITICAL REPORTER MICHAEL PUTNEY. I AM VEHEMENTLY OPPOSED TO COMMON CORE. COMMON CORE IS THE FEDERAL TAKE OVER OFF OUR LOCAL EDUCATION. Reporter: HE PULLS NO PUNCHES. HE DOESN'T THINK MUCH OF HIS MAINSTREAM OPPONENTS, REPUBLICAN RICK SCOTT AND DEMOCRAT CHERYL CRIST OR OF THE WAY BUSINESS IS DONE IN TALLAHASSEE. IT'S REALLY GOTTEN TO THE POINT IN THIS STATE WHERE IT SEEMS THAT WE HAVE A POLITICAL CLASS THAT IS NO LONGER INTERESTED IN TRULY WHAT THE PEOPLE ARE INTERESTED IN. Reporter: WILE SCOTT AND CRIST ARE INDISTINGUISHABLE POLITICAL, AND HE SAYS BOTH PUT SPECIAL INTERESTS ABOVE THE PUBLIC INTEREST. I'MA CONSTITUTIONALIST. I BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE HAVE INALIENABLE RIGHTS AND SHOULD BE LEFT TO LIVE THEIR LIVES AS THEY SEE FIT SO LONG AS THEY'RE NOT HARMING ANYONE ELSE. Reporter: WILY IS 44 YEARS OLD, MARRIED, THE FATHER OF TWO SONS. HE RUNS A SMALL I.T. COMPANY IN PALM HARBOR ON FLORIDA'S WEST COAST. THIS IS HIS FIRST TRY AT PUBLIC OFFICE. WHAT IS A LIBERTARIAN? HOW DO YOU DEFINE IT? YOU KNOW, I DEFINE IT AS SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES IN ECONOMIC FREEDOM, HAVE YOU HAD LIBERTY AND THAT GOVERNMENT SHOULD BASICALLY STAY OUT OF WALLETS, OUT OF OUR BEDROOM, AND OUT OF OUR BUSINESS. Reporter: THAT MEANS HE SUPPORTS SAME-SEX MARRIAGE, OPPOSED THE COMMON CORE STANDARDS LIKE SCHOOL CHOICE AND VOUCHERS, AND OPPOSED TO EXPANSION OF MEDICAID. SOME VOTERS LIKE WILY'S MESSAGE. IN A RECENT QUINN PEA AC POLL HE WAS FAVORED BY 9% OF FLORIDA VOTERS. THAT WAS REALLY A NONE OF THE ABOVE VOTE THAT PEOPLE SIMPLY COULDN'T STOMACH EITHER CHARLIE CRIST OR RICK SCOTT. I THINK I'M ABSOLUTELY AN NONE OF THE ABOVE VOTE BECAUSE PEOPLE REALIZE THAT THE TWO NAMES ABOVE ME ON THE BALLOT ARE MORE OF THE SAME. Reporter: WILE IS DEFINITELY NOT MORE OF THE SAME. HIS CHALLENGE, HOWEVER, IS GETTING HIS MESSAGE OUT WITH A CAMPAIGN BUDGET OF LESS THAN $100,000.
