ok ive been to my state libertian meetings for 2 years never once did we make the focus of our meetings about legalizing drugs. Mostly we discused something wacko,leftist and silly like removing the states food tax. Which we got on the ballot but the state brought out their shills and demonized anyone that didnt want to pay taxes on food, so it lost. We will try at it again. Ok they guys in our group are pro-life, abortion kinda ruins the childs right to liberty and happiness. I had a problem with the open borders issue, but it was explained to me that it didnt mean illegal immigration. I was disturbed at the lp site where H.Browne was bitching about the war with iraq. I asked the guys in our meeting they had a total opposite view they were all for the war. All of them praise George Bush even tho we all voted for harry browne. We do have issues with Bush but I may actually vote for him in 2004

I'd been to county Libertarian meetings 5-10 years ago and drugs rarely if ever came up. However, that's the bugaboo that many conservatives have about libertarians, so that's one thing I addressed.

I'm of the impression that Harry Browne sees the LP as being first and foremost a publicity mechanism for selling his books. As someone who would like to sell his writing some day, I'm impressed with the marketing strategy. As a voter, I'm less impressed.
