By not falling in line and supporting the Libertarians.

I know.  You're going to say that's not so, but it really is.  Look at the facts:

The GOP and the DNC are far closer to each other than either is to the LP's platform.  They agreed to fund Obamacare, Ban Machineguns, Raise the debt ceiling, Debase the currency, Bail out the banking industry, keep us involved in wars overseas with no economic or political gain possible from them, maintain the drug war, and generally run the country however their donors (which often donate to both parties) bribe them to run it.

In agreeing on so many things, they're essentially working together and pretending to hate each other so folks think there's still a meaningful choice.  

They even simplified it down to just colors Red and Blue.  In a lot of ways, the color is the biggest difference between them.  



So if you're thinking of wasting your vote on a Republican, keep in mind that you're actually helping the Democrats beat the LP.  We all know the GOP won't be able to keep from taking it in the ass by giving the Dems the ammo to bukake them into oblivion again, so why waste the vote?

Vote for a party that actually DOESN'T want to run your life or take half your  cash.  All you have to do is be willing to pass that level of freedom onto your neighbors even if you dislike what they'll do with it.  

Think about that for a second.  How important is it to keep those damn queers from getting married in your state?  Is it worth the taxes you'll pay under the Demicans?

Nope.

The actual practices and actions of many (most?) of the elected GOP officials probably do fit that mold, sadly, but not the actual platforms. The GOP and Dem platforms couldn't be more different.

IMHO the problem with the GOP is not the platform, it is the failure of many of their candidates to remember and adhere to it once elected.

I sincerely wish I had a solution for that... but I do know that voting "L" is not the answer.

(And yes, I saw the other thread you are spoofing here.  I just thought I'd offer an honest reply to your OP before the usual poo-throwing commences. )

I don't think that's so.

Whichever party wins, folks are getting tired of being ruled and robbed by Big Brother Inc.  

That frustration and desire to see it change has been growing a lot under Zero and his GOP yes men on the hill.  The more they swing at each other like two retards in a slap fight, the more the rest of America sees them for what they are, and the more people start to lean libertarian.  

Eventually,  one or both of the big parties will start moving that direction to capture market share (win for libertarians) or they'll fall on their swords and the LP (or another similar party) will pick up those voters.

Either way, voting for what you want is probably still the best idea.

Good reasoning

The repubs need to stay in office longer than 4-8 years to implement plans and form a new base.  The voter need to support repubs longer than 4-8 years.  At this time we swing from R to D and back again.  We are going back to R, let's keep it that way for 20 years. Then we can pass National CCW

What they do, of course.  (Same as with the Dems, Libs, or anyone else.)

But I know what the Dems will do on the national stage, and that is worse than what even the worst RINOs will do in most cases... and at least there is a hope that we can push the GOPers to do the right things (or better things) over time, with no such hope for the Dems.

I also know what the Big-L Libertarians will do on the national stage.  Lose elections.  And sometimes (certainly not always, I'm not one of "those") help the Dems to win.

FTR, I think the libertarian-leaning wing of the GOP and Libertarian RINOs (like Ron Paul) have hurt the GOP far more from within than the official Libertarian Party and its candidates have from without... but, sadly, not nearly as much as our own unfaithful RINOs who have behaved like Dem-Lite and cast that shadow over the entire party.

I am a lifelong Republican, involved at the local and state level and vocal about national issues, who has lost faith in my party as a whole.  Absent major change/improvement, we will fade away or become something unrecognizable.  The platform still represents me/my interests/my priorities far more than any other party or group but, regretfully, I can no longer say that of the vast majority of those elected under that banner.  

I feel like the proverbial man without a country.  The Libertarian Party is not the refuge that I seek, personally, but I certainly understand why so many other former Republicans (esp. those far less socially conservative than I) are drawn to it.

I share your feeling of political homelessness.  I don't particularly like the LP as a party.  It's too idealistic for my tastes, but I honestly can't stomach the GOP any more.  They've become as progressive as the Democrats and have gotten worse in terms of their authoritarian side.  As a free market capitalist  and civil liberties advocate, I can't stomach the Democrats either.  What I'm left with is the LP, so imperfect as it is, it's where I'll put my support.

The LP convinces me more and more every time they pull something like this that that is just what they are: plants and moles. The actions of Sarvis here in VA has made me lean back towards the GOP as distasteful as that is. I feel more and more like the LP is just a front. Which is to bad because I could really support them as I agree with much of what they suppose themselves to be about.

The sooner we all realize that this country is ruled by one party with two different factions the better we will be.

They (the power elite) use the Republican vs. Democrat circus show to distract us and make us think we have a choice in effecting change by "voting" out one or the other.......and the majority of Americans just play along....

What is the definition of insanity?

That perception works both ways.

Republicans could easily dominate American politics and get 70%+ of what they want.

Instead they burn the house down because they can't let go of the idea that the coercive power of government is a weapon they can use in the culture war.

I certainly don't feel like I'm getting 70% of what I want from the GOP either.

The Libertarian party used to be Republicans angry at the direction the Republican party has taken, now it's composed of Democrats that want to support the Democratic party and Democratic candidates but don't want to be associated with their authoritarian policies. They're a bunch of academics that want to sit around and be fashionable with their leftist friends instead of winning. All the Libertarians that want to win have become active in the Republican party over the last six years or so.

So Jefferson, Franklin and Adams got 100 percent of what they wanted?  There are even classes in college on how their views often opposed one another.
