While she wasn’t in my top three choices, and didn’t receive a single delegate vote from me, I will be happy to vote for her. If John Monds gets the VP nomination today, it will be funny to see the leftist media ignore a Woman/Black man ticket while the other two parties run two horrible old rich white men.

We will never win and to believe so is being completely aloof, but it’s important the LP remains a home for the disenfranchised small government republicans and anti socialist democrats. Both of which have nearly zero representation in American government.
For the record I think identity politics is one of the most destructive concepts to American society, but to watch the hypocrisy will be great.

Jo Jorgensen 2020.

WTF?! Jacob Hornberger has gotten a vast majority of the support.

He has a sizable following and is extremely knowledgeable in political theory.

The LP primary process is awful. This is why we can’t have nice things.

While I view myself as a libertarian, this is not the time to protest. 4 more years could potentially have a devastating effect on this big out of control government, and I mean, for the better. Lets root out all the evil and then work to get back to our roots.

Trumps handling of the "plandemic" is a good start for states rights.

no doubt

Trump's main usefulness is a disruptor of globalism,
that is the main reason he must remain.

Everytime I try to get one foot onboard, I get reminded that the LP supports open borders

ETA: don't know who DV'ed, but here is Arvin Vohra, LP Pres candidate, saying as much open borders, no welfare

I get so tired of hearing this every. Single. Year.


Bro, if EVER there was a year to protest vote, this is the year. This president and this congress oversaw the FORCIBLE quarantine of healthy people, the FORCIBLE closure of businesses, and then used that to pass TRILLIONS of dollars of deficit spending to fix the problems that they created. If this isn’t the point where you stop excusing the bullshite that the Rs and Ds have been handing us, I’m not sure you will ever get there.

If you lean libertarian, you have at the very least, got to see the need for the U.S. to be able to stand on its own,

as a starter.

Libertarians have adopted the art of hypocrisy from their brothers, the Democrats. Once again proving that a vote for Libertarian is an acknowledgement that Democrat policies are OK.

Libertarians and Democrats are the true UniParty.

I'm an anarchist and libertarian sympathizer,

but I know that in its pure form it won't work, just like communism won't work.

The best you can do is try and strike a balance.

If you think libertarians are part of the Uniparty you're a moron. Do you think the Deep State wants welfare abolished, the spying apparatus curtailed and our wars overseas to end? If you think what they're doing to Trump is bad, they'd kill Rand Paul.

While I agree with you in principal, I just cannot get by the fact that Trump is not the one that actually "spends" anything. You know, pesky little constitution and all...

Why not spend that energy transforming a party like the communist did to the Democrats.

This might siphon off some female votes from Joe and his presumed female VP choice. Still, I predict a lower than average vote tally.
