Ron Paul, Mike Gravel, Bob Barr, Michael Badnarik, Mary Ruwart... Now THAT is a party I would be proud to join!
-
And the Libertarian Party begins to become just like the Democrats and Republicans. This is horrible! How can the Libertarian Party support someone who is a globalist and a socialist? So much for standing for principles!
-
You know he only joined the libertarians because he knew he wouldn't become the democratic nominee, so now that he is a libertarian he can run in the general election.
-
Mike Gravel, Barack Obama, Bill Richardson = dream team
-
Libertarians come in two breeds: the reactionary anarchists (Ron Paul-esque) and the strangely paranoid (Alex Jones-esque). Mike Gravel is neither and just wants a nomination.

Nice! I dug it .

The Libertarian Party and Gravel does not seem like a good mix. Gravel supports a socialized medical system which is something that most Libertarians are very much against. While I really do like a lot of the things that Gravel supports, except the socialized medical system thing, he might very well be playing politics here to get at least one party to give him the nod to run for president. He does have an agenda, but he is not an evil man from what I have learned about his past. Gravel as a Libertarian will be interesting for sure.
-
I could see liking him if he changed his outlook on government. Being a Democrat, he supported taxes and big government. He has some strong points, but overall his positions aren't 100% inline with the libertarian philosophy.

Gravel is a breath of fresh air and we need to support him so he can get his message out!
