Mike Gravel - Bob Barr - Wayne Root䰀

Mike Gravel - Bob Barr - Wayne Root䰀

Now that everybody is jumping on the 3rd party bandwagon, the Libertarian Party is at a cross-roads. Does the party wish to take other party rejects as their own, or do they choose to choose talent from within, you know libertarians who were libertarians when libertarianism wasn’t cool.

Is there room for 2 Libertarian Parties?

Is the Constitution party the only option left. If Bob Barr is nominated it will definitely show that todays libertarians are only really interested in the fiscal libertarianism, and don’t really represent truly libertarian ideals.

I talked about how many ways Bob Barr will absolutely kill The Libertarian Party (see the Reform party, anybody know where it is now?), but what about Gravel?

Gravel supports the National Initiative for Democracy, which basically changes the way government would operate. It would literally change the constitution to bring us more to the form of Democracy or founding fathers avoided (we’re a republic, not a Democracy).

Gut tells me the LP will go for Bob Barr this weekend in Denver.

Short term gains will equal long-term disaster for the LP is this move is made.
