Oh yeah, I forgot he says he has changed...

I don't care what his new phetoric is. A politician's record is the only thing that we have to go by and by his record barr is a pro-war blood-thirsty liberty-trouncing neoconservative.

It seems apparent that the libertarian party itself has been co-opted and joined the enemy. Nothing like a little compromise of your principles to start you down that slippery slope to becoming what you oppose. I just wish I really knew what to do. To me there are very few ways to change things, really. We can get somebody elected to high office and hope for a trickle down effect. We can try to take over one of the parties - futile in my opinion. We can hold rallies which will change nothing. or we can riot in the streets, not pay our taxes and eat and buy only things we make ourselves. I think the truth is that only money talks. Unless we can think of a way to make it in the owners of this country's best interest to restore the Republic and libertarian government I don't know what we can do. And I certainly can't think of anyway that would make changing things in the interest of the people who have the power to change things. How do you roll back a couple of hundred years of the consolidation of power in DC? There must be several billion federal laws and statutes in place. If we eliminated 10 of them a day for the next hundred years - which will never happen anyway - we would still be no where. There really needs to be a sea change and I am afraid the only way that will happen is with a total collapse of the system.
