Or at least enlist GWB as their candidate to promote the platform.

"If they did de-certify us they would have to send a mailing to all 13,000 members of the Libertarian Party. It would be very expensive and time-consuming."

You could just put up a notice in Denny's restaurants across the state and reach 99% of the party members.

As a former Libertarian (now Republican on paper but still Libertarian in spirit), it's sad and amusing at the same time for me to sit on the sidelines and watch this party deteriorate.

They're not serious about winning elections.

Right before the 2004 campaign heated up, the head of the Libertarian party of my county wasn't even aware that our treasurer had resigned over a year earlier.

But he or she probably knows where to get the best dope.

The 8-table by the window is good for coffee in the morning with a few chairs left over for joiners.

How to destroy freedoms and the Constitution - allow states to "certify" a political party before people can choose.

Wow, 13,000 in the entire state. That deserves a Hee Haw salute.

And currently I'm one of them. And yes I disagree with the open border policy. But I wouldn't vote for a backstabbing Republican if you paid me

And it's not like the Republicans haven't tried either.

I am in the same boat as you. I left the LPNC and went back to the GOP. I met the state exec committe in cluding Sean haugh, who at the time was challenging Eliz. Dole for Senate. He is an idiot! There was notyhing impressive or intelligent about him. Many of the other exec committee members should have been wearing tin foil hats to stop the govt mind reading rays from getting to them. They are not serious about actually WINNING elections. You can have all the ideals you want but if you can't enact them..............

That is unbelievable that Republicans voted for their parties nomination.. forget his name, but he was more liberal than Easley.

I voted for Barbra Howe (the Libertarian candidate).
