Is he getting his impression of how vast majority of Americans think from the media

while i love your positive attitude, i see it like the author does. after attending a recent 'bill of rights' rally in austin, at the capitol, where only 40 or so people out of a population of 750,000 attended, i feel very pessimistic.

our friend, rick stanley, who is the organizer of these rallys, flew to salt lake city to speak at one and ONLY 7 people attended!! he was pretty disheartened as well.

If Rick Stanley runs for Prez I'll vote for him
(I bet my hubby would too)
both Gop and Dem Parties know the secret of winning elections is getting out the vote
whoever gets out the most voters wins
Jesse Ventura used interestin' strategy to get out the vote
I think that's how he won
he got lotta voters who had never voted before
plus libs and conservatives who wanted his new approach

I planned never to vote again after GOP made choices I didn't want after 2000
but my friend Kim is running for State Senator on Libertarian ticket
so I planned to show up and vote for her
(I thought ''since I'm there I'll vote for all the other Libertarians'')
but now that I've become gung-ho Libertarian
I can't wait to vote the Libertarian ticket

I wonder what the author's purpose in this article is
is it to inspire us to go out and vote libertarian
or is it to express anger and frustration
I am not sure Libertarians can win with negative attitude
people vote for what they want
Love, Palo
