Will someone tell me why conservatives would vote for a libertarian since they are for open borders?

Especially considering you can vote GOP and get same thing.

It's a word game. Most LP issues are.

The plank is worded "let peaceful people cross borders freely."

What brings one back to the Republicans in a Post 9/11 world is the fact that, if you let people cross the border freely, how will you know if they are peaceful?

Yet again, Tuesday proved that Republicans haven't answered that question either.

I did vote Republican by the way. I voted for only two LP Candidates, one for PSC commissioner (I know him) and one for Agriculture commissioner (best man for the job.)

I have voted for only two Democrats in my life, Zell Miller and Sam Nunn (and still proud of it!).
