Well, the plain fact is that the LP is organizing and effort aimed at gaining majority political influence in a small state. Its strategy is to get "their people" to move into said state, for that express purpose.(from your reply #27)

...but in fact the LP is trying...(from your reply #40)

Can you support this with a reference? Or do you just make up any story to fit your fantasy?

I personally find the entire FSP to be a sad joke. The fact that a few Libertarians have bought into it, only says that the LP also has its kook fringe.

"Invade and take over" are the words used by Mr. Babiarz. I'm merely borrowing them, and am not overly concerned with the accuracy of the terms.

But "invade and take over" are actually a pretty good description of what the FSP is all about.

The "reference" you need is FSP itself -- move a bunch of folks to a small state ("invasion"), and then elect enough LPers and fellow-travelers to turn the state into a LP paradise ("take over").

The FSP is certainly a fantasy. My only point is that Mr. Babiarz is denying the fact of what the FSP is really all about.

Well, maybe. It's possible that, if they cluster in only a couple of districts, they could elect a couple of people to something more than city dog-polisher. It's even possible that those folks could be somewhat effective -- but I think they'd mostly be relegated to Ron Paul status.

The fact that a few Libertarians have bought into it, only says that the LP also has its kook fringe.

And that's really saying something.....
