Who We Are
We are:
- Libertarian Party members who have grown tired of losing.
- Former Libertarian Party members who got tired and left -- but are
considering returning if conditions improve.
- Small-l libertarians who are considering joining the party
if the party shows
real interest in winning.
- Small-l libertarians who are considering joining the party if the
party backs off from some unacceptable positions.
- Moderate libertarians who want to shrink government.
- Radical libertarians who realize that to shrink government a lot, we must
first shrink it a little.
- Anarcho-capitalists who realize that to eliminate government, we must first
shrink it.
If any of these fit you, consider joining us. Please read about our plan
of action and see if you would like to participate.
We are not:
- Hegelians who think things must get worse before they get better.
- Libertarians willing to wait for the United States to collapse into
bankruptcy or fascism.
- Libertarians more interested in "being right" than getting things done.
- Perfectionists, who would rather do nothing than do the imperfect.
We believe:
- That an American political party needs a broad base of support.
- That concessions to the popular will are necessary.
- That the order in which government programs are eliminated is important.
- That the biggest factor holding the Libertarian Party back is a platform
that is excessively radical and does not set priorities.
We do not believe:
- That the problem is merely one of salesmanship (often incorrectly referred
to as "marketing").
- That all we need is more money or publicity (though these are good things).
- That all we need is the correct party organization (though this is also a good
thing).
