Libertarian national convention May 27–30 in Orlando (Official thread)

he was hiding nothing.

Innocent until proven guilty.

Seriously though they need to move on from this.

 

[Rudeman]

I joined because I believe in the principles. But it's clear they're willing to throw away principle for popularity.

Don't worry they'll fail again and GJ will blame everyone but himself and his VP pick.

 

[LibertyEagle]

They need to bring back the Chair, or whomever it was who was doing that duty earlier. Because the guy up there now is a nervous wreck and is doing a horrible job.

They are going to fail. Everyone knows that, potus is out of reach. Maybe Johnson and Weld can get the 5% though.

any tickets success depends on the people and their support. It is a self-fulfilling prophecy to say the candidate loses the election, while not supporting that candidate. it voids your own part in the process.

He'll blame real libertarians for not voting for someone who doesn't represent them. Don't you know it's stupid for D's or R's for voting party line but god forbid libertarians vote on principle and not party line.

Agreed

Again like I said in the other thread. When I say they'll fail I'm referring to 15% and 5%. GJ winning potus isn't even a consideration.

 

[LibertyEagle]

Ugh. Weld. So much for principle.

And this is why I hate political parties.

So the candidate takes no personal responsibility in his failure?

 

[Rudeman]

Weld speech? This will be a disaster.

 

[torchbearer]

He takes his part for the failure, as does the person who wasn't supporting him to begin with.
Each person is required in the act.

example-
I didn't vote for Rand Paul when i had the chance. Its his fault he lost.

 

[opal]

ok.. I have a few groups to unlike now

I look at things long term. If the LP does well this general election, it will improve its renown for the next election. And if you want a better candidate in the LP, become part of the process and become a delegate.

 

[LibertyEagle]

I'm considering joining the party because of this. Two governors is a serious ticket. I think the LP might be going somewhere.

Are you kidding??? Weld is a high-ranking member of the CFR!! That is everything that is wrong with the GOP. Surely, you know that.

 

[younglibertarian]

I hate to be crude........

 

FUCK YOU WELD YOU PIECE OF AUTHORITARIAN SHIT!

No, you just made it a dup of the Republican Party. Congrats. That didn't take long. Wow.

 

[torchbearer]

Supporting Johnson could lead to a better platform to start from for a better candidate in 2020. Johnson will not occupy the white house. But his vote totals could lead to inclusion of the LP in future debates.

 

[jth_ttu]

Just unliked the LP on Facebook. If I vote this year it will be Ron Paul

 

[torchbearer]

No, you just made it a dup of the Republican Party. Congrats. That didn't take long. Wow.

The republican party controls who is in the debates. The LP is not allowed in the debates. Until that happens it doesn't matter what the LP does.
