As I said, I left the LP years ago, and have not followed it since. I did recently receive a request by the AZLP to head up a registration drive statewide, but then my gun guy died and I've been busy handling the store for the estate. I haven't even seen an LP platform since about 1990 or 1991.

I even stopped calling myself a (small "l") libertarian since the party nominated ol' Harry Browne TWICE for the presidency. I'm looking at the Constitution Party. If the CP runs candidates locally and builds an organization from the grassroots up, then I'll definitely consider that party as THE alternative to the Republican Party. (BTW .... I am NOT a republican, although I'll vote republican since the alternative, at the national level is the party of TREASON).

Same here.

If you're for a smaller federal government, against illegal immigration, for re-establishing Christianity as a founding principle and don't mind voting for a losing candidate as long as his political views closely match your own, give it a try.

Be forewarned, however, that you will find many Ron Paul supporters within the ranks of the CP just as you do in the LP (and probably a good share of what Mona Charen would call "kooks" as well). Their 2004 Presidential candidate, Michael Peroutka, has already endorsed Ron Paul's candidacy, in fact.

Ditto.
