Hello CBJ,
Not a good sign for the Grand Old Party. It seems that both sides of the isle are having growing pains.
Our founders warned us of the dangers of faction. If only today's leaders respected and heeded their predecessors' warnings.
Respectfully,
O.A.

You're assuming he can get the rest of his agenda past Congress. I'm not.

He will end the war on drugs and escalate the war against Liberty, the individual, economic freedom as well as a court that allows for the erosion of the constitution. Stalin called liberals "useful idiots" that is the one and only thing about Stalin I agree with.

30- 40 % off of the Federal budget with Sanders
In charge? Better "check your premises".

If you don't think cutting 30-40% off the federal budget or freeing millions of prisoners matters, then I guess not.

The need for criminal justice reform, and to end the War on Drugs.

My motto:
Don't waste your vote--vote LIBERTARIAN!

so true...i see a steady slide into a fascist/police/ oligarchy state...the vast voting majority has demonstrated that they are willing to vote away freedom and liberty for the "security" of a politician's promise...

trump floated the idea of negotiating a reduction of the current debt thru the bond holders...have them take $.10 to whatever to pay off the debt and retire the bonds...that is a two edge sword...on the one hand, we prevent a collapse of the economy, the death of hundreds of millions and a return to the 18th century...on the other hand, it teaches politicians that they can continue doing what they are doing without consequences...

what it will cost us to negotiate is the unknown..stay tuned...

Left leaners- " not suitable material for washing dishes".
I am ok with them washing dishes and sweeping roads. But I ask, keep them away from microphones and keyboards.

i also came across curious individuals that after reading Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged thought Rand advocated free sex...and after 9 years in the Air Force as a decorated pilot, i was told to leave because i was not religious...

one battle at a time...consequently, i had 25 great years as a captain for american airlines after being forced out of the Air Force...raised 3 great kids...right now i am enjoying life in a condo on the beach in ft. lauderdale...watched the Thunderbirds perform yesterday on a perfect weather day...sunny and 75...

our country is over $250 trillion dollars in debt with current and future entitlements...Sanders has college students thrilled with "free" college...my last son is in college...he makes progress with fellow students by "educating" them with what "free" means and the crushing debt they are going to inherit...

just got back from a week in the wine country north of san fran...(the minimum price for a house in san fran is $1 million dollars...unbelievable)...live a long and prosperous life my friend

Your implication seems to be that as a libertarian he can also be an admirer of Marx, Lenin, Stalin, and Mao completely contradicting the liberty base of libertarian belief. Sanders is just a confused man trying to relive the 1960s. Over the last 50 years I have met a number of such men (seems like men all the time) who are confused about socialism as being good in some way. When in grad school grading papers for the US Armed Forces Institute in the mid 1960s, there was a guy on me all the time because he could not see how a poor person like me could be pro capitalism but not be able to afford to eat steak and other more expensive food. He kept pushing the superior societies with socialist leanings. Another guy kept complaining about capitalism being wasteful because, like radios which he considered perfected, things should all be standardized once they work right, no need for improvements.
I realize that libertarians through history have come from both the left and the right, the US libertarian has a good chance as having been influenced by Ayn Rand. They should start advocating individualism and more liberty toward actual freedom in rights and get off the freedoms that individuals seem to get through changing laws but continue to retain somewhat different laws that just look like they got out of the way of ones liberty.
It will be a hard climb to a government with at least a complete ban on religion being part of the government and a complete separation of government and economy and of science. That does not mean that the government workers should all be atheists but that law should not regulate individual lives by supernatural claptrap. Let religion, economics, and science be private matters.

Absolutely. I agree totally

It's too early for the LP to win a presidential election, but not too early for it to exist. The LP can be a vehicle for philosophical outreach, and can provide a political home for those who already share its values.

Isnt she the wife of that carpetbagger (James Carville) who ran Clinton's campaign? Cant be a good thing. He was a real piece of work. Mindless idiot.

Its really too early for a libertarian political party yet. The culture is still way too bankrupt for that. Philosophical change has to come first in the country. People have also to realize that socialism just doesnt work anywhere, and its not just because it runs out of money.

Sanders does get some things right. The Democrats are having an open primary in California, and I'm going to vote for Sanders in it.

She's married to Carville, which shows what kind of judgment she has. Just another pretty face.
