Are they going to share the drugs to everyone before we read it?
Well, the Preamble sounds good.
I'm very libertarian, but this open borders crap is a recipe for poverty. However, I'm not voting for any socialists.
Upholding the Second Amendment through the repeal of all gun control legislation that prevents law abiding citizens from the means of self-protection, as well as all restrictions on other personal weapons such as pepper spray, knives and swords, staves and clubs, etc. Laws that ban the private use and ownership of primarily offensive weapons such as bombs, deadly chemical weapons and military devices such as missile launchers and nuclear weapons. The revocation of arms rights from those who are convicted of commission or the involvement with the commission of violent crimes.
You've got some incomplete sentences in there, which I underlined. So as you can see, your position on those two particular clauses is not known--do you support them, or oppose them? Re-read the document, get some other people to do it (not just us, give it to friends in hardcopy, which is a lot easier to edit) and let them edit it for grammar and spelling.
I glanced at the foreign policy section, and it seems a little more realistic than current big-L Libertarian policy.
Good luck.

My searches for "bogart" and "doobie" came up empty.
What open borders are you referring to?
Streamlining the immigration process to enable guest workers a legal and more practical means of immigration and a legal path to citizenship. Reducing the welfare state. Only citizens and legal, tax-paying residents (including legal immigrants) should have access to tax-funded government welfare programs, including public schools and healthcare. Strengthening border security, to prevent criminals and terrorists, who would not be permitted to enter through legal checkpoints, from entering illegally. Implementing a reasonable guest worker program. Illegal immigrants who have remained otherwise law-abiding should be allowed a one-year period to sign up for a guest worker program and join the track to citizenship. After the period is over, all remaining illegal immigrants would be immediately subject to deportation.
You could ask someone to read the big worlds aloud.
You know better than to expect that... 
There are many good things here. Even the Republican Pary has its faults. I would really like to see a pro-freedom party come to power over the political hacks that get too comfortable. When was the last time a law got repealed as opposed to more being added?
Guest worker programs are usually amnesty and amount to the same thing as an open border.
This party is a joke. They do not call for an end to government handout programs and as usual put a lot of emphasis on freedom to use harmful recreational drugs. End ALL welfare, ALL taxpayer-funded medical care, and ALL tax-payer-funded substance abuse treatment programs, and revise the laws across the land to hold people fully responsible for any act they commit while under the influence of self-administered drugs (including alcohol), and THEN we can talk about ending the "war on drugs".
> You've got some incomplete sentences in there...
Not really. Those sentences are in the "we support:" section. Thus, the sentences describe the laws that they support.
I like the drugs part but the economics section implies that you have to pay for them yourself...
Yeah but I'm an eternal optimist :-)
Where's the section on open source software? Software wants to be free! Right?
Without that, the LP will lose all the LINUX consultants, and there would be no party at all.
