You're all voting for Johnson so the LP gets matching funds, right?

Still not sure which route I'm going. Might stay home. But, I almost had a Hillary supporter convince me to vote Trump. I hate both Trump and Hillary but this Feminazi had me thinking it was time to pull the lever for Trump. Of course coming on these forums and reading the Trump shrills righted the boat.

I'll just put this here.

Thanks Trumpster, I hadn't seen that yet.

thats the only reason i'm voting for him. i hate her supporters more than I hate his, nothing to do with the candidate himself.

I thought we are doing it so they are on the ballot in 2020? I guess strategically you might not want a libertarian on the ballot in 2020 if Rand Paul becomes the Republican nominee because that would take away votes.

I think you have to have 15% for ballot access. There is no way Johnson/Weld will reach that.

 

[Jesse James]

Nope he's a horrible candidate and a Libertarian should not ask for government handouts.

you better stop using public roads. no true libertarian would use public roads

 

[Jesse James]

Nothing says "Libertarian" quite like requesting that the State should be used as a means to collect revenue to campaign for elections!!!

yeah, it's not like you are morally obligated to take back YOUR money or anything...




oh wait....

 

[Jesse James]

Unless someone can post a link here showing any Johnson's statement in opposition to Iraq war from prior to 2003, he will get ZERO support from me.

even if you find one, he recently said Hiroshima was justified. that's reason enough not to support him

 

[Jesse James]

Vote for libertarian ticket so that the anti-tax party can get more taxpayer funds.

you mean THEIR funds?

 

[undergroundrr]

I'll just put this here.

Well, that's kind of alpha-male. Might win over some trumpies.

 

[Jesse James]

"Hey aren't libertarians supposed to be AGAINST federal handouts?"

no. it's our money to take. they stole it from us and we have a duty to steal it back.

 

[dannno]

You have to admit, from a practical standpoint, libertarian politicians are one of the best investments or expenditures that the government could possibly make.

 

[wizardwatson]

no. it's our money to take. they stole it from us and we have a duty to steal it back.

Well, it goes to the party doesn't it? It isn't like the party is going to cut a check to everyone who calls themselves a libertarian. Plus, if the LP was actually producing Ron Pauls instead of potheads and Clinton shills, I'd be more inclined to sympathize.

Well, it would give us a reason I suppose to support the LP.

I've given up on any sort of purity tests for Libertarians. I consider myself an anarchist, but I think a Libertarian president would be an improvement over Clinton. Is that up for debate?

I remember the 90s quite fondly. It was a brief time of reprieve, between our time of constant fear of the existential threat of nuclear annihilation, and our time of constant fear of Islamic terrorism.
There were plenty of jobs, gas was cheap, regulations were more lenient than today, cops stuck to beating up undesirables.
Plenty of pot to go around.
Overall attitude was postive.

When I apply the same purity test to Clintons as some do for Johnson, I find it difficult to hate on Hillary.

I think Trump could end up being miles ahead of Hillary, possibly, not for certain though. I voted for GJ cuz I don't live in a swing state.

That is kind of an odd test. GJ left government 1 January 2003 and didn't re-enter until running for president in 2012. I assume he went back to running a business. His stand on the Iraq war wasn't going to gather much media attention. There are many sites were he states he was against the war from the start. That isn't an unusual position for a libertarian, but I can't find a link.

Just curious as to why is it important to you? That was 13 years ago.

First we have to make the land safe for liberty, and then people can have liberty.

Why does this method sound so familiar?

yes, obviously it goes to the party. I would much prefer a third party be on the same playing field.

Yep.
