He has reached four of the highest peaks on all seven continents, including Mt. Everest — a fact specifically noted by his campaign. On the other hand the Johnson campaign has made clear its thoughts on the
Ames Straw Poll, noting there had been “a strategic decision to spend resources and time doing retail politics in New Hampshire.”
