- inactive, on 10/22/2008, -0/+20Good article. I voted for Bob today.
Send this article to all your conservative Republican friends. MCain is dead in the water. Express your dissatisfaction with the megastate by voting for a REAL conservative - kebinusan, on 10/22/2008, -0/+20Could help make serious inroads in the 2 party system in this country
- roosevans, on 10/23/2008, -0/+18John McCain is neither a genuine social or fiscal conservative. Social conservatives in protest should vote for Chuck Baldwin and fiscal conservatives in protest should vote for Bob Barr, as I see it.
- inactive, on 10/23/2008, -0/+12As far as ballot access Barr has it and Baldwin doesn't. If we really want to send someone to the White House that isn't a D&R gang representative we need to vote for and support the third party candidate with the most ballot access.
Getting McCainiacs to vote Barr could be a tough sell, but it is our only chance for change.
0bama or McCain isn't a choice, it is insane. - pete1ker, on 10/23/2008, -1/+12I'm voting for Barr this time. I don't think writing in Baldwin will do much good. Even though I favor Baldwin. Write ins don't get very far..If they get counted at all.
- inactive, on 10/24/2008, -0/+7Just saw Barr Wed. night at UC. Far more articulate and intelligent than Obama or McCain. Unlike those two clowns, who never give direct answers for which they might be held accountable, Barr actually gave specific, falsifiable answers to questions. It's truly a shame that Americans have been subjected to Coke vs. Pepsi so long that they don't know there are nutritious products out there. Barr is to be commended for running a message campaign and attempting to organize Americans to fight for something better than the welfare party vs. the warfare party.
The Republicans are an establishment party, and half of the Republican-Democrat oligarchic system that discriminates against parties that actually represent Americans. It doesn't matter if they lose. For the Libertarian Party, the goal here isn't to win in 2008. The goal is to get 5% of the vote this year, 10% in 2012, and so on, until they R-D oligarchy and the media are forced to stop pretending that other voices don't exist, and that Americans are somehow satisfied with the steady diet of idiots and criminals the R and D parties have paraded before them for the last 70 years. - allowners, on 10/23/2008, -0/+7A humorous thought: Don't waste your vote?
- Robjayne, on 10/22/2008, -5/+11Dugg for third party vote. I have voted Libertarian since 92 but I don't trust Barr. I will vote for Baldwin this time. T
- titlemikedotws, on 10/24/2008, -1/+6Bob Barr will get over 5% of the vote. The polls are wrong. This will be the start of third paries getting funded 4 years from now. The silent majority should be voting for Bob Barr. Both Obama and McCain voted for the bailout. 80% of the people opposed the bailout. Send a message and vote third parties. The new improved Bob Barr was against the bailout.
- titlemikedotws, on 10/24/2008, -0/+1Baldwin is no libertarian. He is against the people who want the freedom to gamble online. Barr/Root is by far the better choice.
- inactive, on 10/24/2008, -0/+1Nonsense my foot. There's so much nonsense it had to be sponsored, but serious scientific evaluations have shown and concluded that not only were explosives absolutely necessary to bring the 3 towers down, but the NIST refused to pursue the investigation, at the same time suggesting that the technology to do so didn't exist, though it had been patented 5 years prior.
Meanwhile the official 'story' (conveniently recited in too much detail by insider plants on the street minutes after impact) been disowned by its instigators, they've resorted to calling 'unknown' an actual answer.
Just about NOBODY (except on TV) believes it anymore, and stonewalling an investigation only inspires people to fill in the blanks themselves. - inactive, on 10/24/2008, -0/+1Wed. night in Cincinnati, he was challenged by what I presume was a long-term libertarian who basically insinuated the Barr was still a big govt. Republican looking for a new pair of shoes. I thought Barr's response was very good. He said that for a long time, he had (1) done the job he was hired to do and enforced the laws, and (2) he had believed that there were only two options, and that the RP was the lesser evil of them. He said he has changed his mind about the war on drug users, the war on terror (the war on oil-producing Arab states), and the eradication of individual rights by the security state.
Everyone was something worse before he or she became a libertarian. In 1992, I voted for the kakistocrat who should be known for his "war on terror" in Serbia instead of his affair with an aide. Give Barr a chance to prove himself. - Nexus974, on 10/24/2008, -0/+1He was a troofer and was about to go into 9/11 conspiracy nonesense, but Barr cut him off. I was also amused at the way Barr insinuated the kid had no job.
- Nexus974, on 10/24/2008, -0/+1I would love to see him get 5%, but I'm not holding my breath.
- FURBjr, on 10/24/2008, -3/+1So what if McCain can't win. Barr can't either. If you must add your voice to the violence of government vote for Charles Jay/Tom Knapp, or where they don't have ballot access write them in.
- jaymzdean, on 10/23/2008, -11/+5Bob Barr is a neocon shill. Makes Libertarian party useless until he goes away. He's just occupying space as a pawn to neuter a chance to pull power away from the Council on Foreign Relations.
Chuck Baldwin is my man.
Voting principles is never a wasted vote unless it's stolen.
