libertarians need to get their word out. i never hear anything about them. but hell yeah. more screen time for them and another party would be nice.

like i say all the time, peel away the stupid media driven shit, the majority of the people are really close to agreeing on a lot, if not all, of the problems.

You could have the seniors apply for a US passport. Waive the fee for graduates. Granted there will be gaps, nothing is perfect. The majority of new voters are going to be in school around the time they are 18. I know there are states that have mobile systems to get older people who are house bound or in nursing homes on the voter roles and getting them mail-in ballots.

Creating a pro active system of registration benefits everyone
try and get an id in Raleigh. it takes all day. if we go to a voter id law, we need to make damn sure that it is as easy to get as a library card. also has to be free

Libertarian party has some loonies in it, but if I had to pigeon hole myself into a party it would be them. They just suck at raising funds. Their platform is solid, their bylaws are decent, but that is where the fun in the sun ends. They are horrible at letting people know they are a viable option.

More than anything people have to break the two party paradigm of I would vote for so & so but it is taking votes from so & so. If everyone who actually said that would actually follow through with it we would break the D&R's stranglehold on politics. There are a couple serving in Indiana, but not enough to make a difference on a republican super majority across the board. Pitiful. I really thought Donald Rainwater had a shot at upending high tax Holcomb. However people could just not force themselves to push the button. I did with zero regrets.

The problem is that most voters want to control the people outside of their party, and only the Rs and the Ds try to control people. Libertarians do not want the government strong enough to control anyone except for our foreign enemies.

Not at all. The guy needs to disappear. Legally, though. Not like Hoffa.
