As a life long libertarian I endorse Kerry for president, ....... of FRANCE that is!

And what's more I will personally pay for his plane ticket there. (a one way non-refundable ticket that is)

But seriously folks. I am philosophically a libertarian. I usually vote that way.

But this election is one of the more important ones in history.

I will be voting for Bush, and I hope every other patriot does as well.

Yes, I won't be shocked if he supports gun control after elected. (like his daddy before him) But we KNOW Kerry will pass all sorts of rotten gun laws.

We need a president who understands that we are at war. And who may support RKBA.

And who knows, he may even reverse his fathers grave error and do way with the 89 import ban. (with an executive order)

Vote for BUSH.

He is the only rational choice.

And this is not a time to make our vote for a libertarian candidate on principal, and let a wolf like Kerry into the hen house.

Let looney liberals vote for Nader. We need to vote for Bush.

I agree with most things the Libertarians stand for.

I consider myself "Mostly Libertarian"

I will definitely be voting for Bush this election.

I'll save the Libertarian victories to those battles they actually have a chance in winning. Very few at this point.

The thing about Bush is, that I actually like him. He is the first president to recognize that we cannot let these scum kill Americans and then run and hide in some islamic country.

If this country had this policy thirty years ago, we wouldn't be in the mess we are in now.

What's more, I think Bush is really sincere about his beliefs. And I think he is a decent man who cares about issues and just doesn't read polls and adjust his policies according to them.

We must make sure he is re-elected.

Granted, I would love it if a Libertarian candidate had a chance, but lets face it that ain't gonna happen. And we just cannot waste our votes this time.

Vote Bush.

Ahhh but daddy supported gun control in hopes of cutting off an avenue of attack from the left... remember the day you take your oath of office, you are campaigning for your second term as president. Bush wins re-election, he will likely never run for office again. I don't believe Bush supports gun control. He said he would sign a ban to take away the avenue of attack, but he never had to. He DID sign Texas CCW. I have no reason to believe he will push for gun control, or even support it. Being a second term president has a certain power to it... free from the wrath of pissed off voters and free to follow one's conscience.

Not only am I voting for him, and like the man. And I think he is sincere and honest. (unlike the comlpete phoney liar Klinton. (or that back stabbing kerry)

I think he believes what he says and is honestly trying to do his best.

Can you IMAGINE what it would been like if that duncey democrat gore had won the election and had been in office when osama be scum bag attacked???? It makes my skin crawl.

We finally have a pres who is willing to kick ass and take names of terrorist scum.

I don't know for sure what he will do about gun control once he is in. After all his father betrayed us. But I think he will not do the same. He might even reverse his dads 89 ban to rectify that mistake. (who knows)

But I am voting for the man.

I really hope all Libertarians and independents do as well.

This is an important one.

Exactly. Bush will be in his second term and will have no worries about getting re-elected. Being he didn't push for a new AWB in a politically hot year, he isn't gonna do so after he wins a 2nd term.

I also bet you see less PC shit concerning Iraq. I hope Bush wins and I hope he takes the gloves off a bit when it comes to dealing with the asshat terrorists in Iraq.

As an 18 year Libertarian I endorse Badnarik for President.....but I fully expect Bush to win. I can't vote for Bush because he is a Lincolnian Centralist and I'm a Jeffersonian Federalist. Call me old school, but my America is the America of the Founding Fathers, not the Bush Administration's socialist version. To be honest though, if Bush had done something to overturn Reagan's '86 and his father's '89 gun bans, he would get my vote.

1)Jefferson was not a Federalist. He was the arch-enemy of the federalists.
2)President Bush is not a socialist and it's moronic to call him one.
3)I'm glad you're in a state where you can afford to waste your vote on that raving lunatic Boris Badanov.

I have my own concerns about GWB, but any gun owner is a battleground state that does not vote for Bush is betraying the RKBA.

I can understand not voting for GB I as he actually further infringed on the RKBA, but GB II has done nothing but good things for gun owners.

+1 Jefferson was THE Anti-Fedealist. A "jefferson Federalist" would be like saying a "marx capitalist" www.encyclopedia.com/html/section/FedistP_TheTriumphoftheJeffersonianOpposition.asp] link.

2)President Bush is not a socialist and it's moronic to call him one.

Bush's gobment is the biggest yet. His perscription plan thingy is rather socialist but on the otherhand privitizing SS, medical savings accounts and other "privitizing" initiatives are not.

3)I'm glad you're in a state where you can afford to waste your vote on that raving lunatic Boris Badanov.

As a Libertarian myself I can honestly say is what we see here is what happens when individuals of my libertarian party take a little too much "liberty" in smoking that ganja.... SOF1 PUT DOWN THAT BONG!

B.T.W. This Libertarian is voting for Bush. (simply because he let the AWB sunset!)

As a Libertarian I understand where you are coming from. But think about it, what if kerry is elected? Will a protest vote for Badnarik be worth it? It is analogues to dems voting for nader.

Truly, ....... a vote for Badnarik is a vote for Kerry. Please think about it before you do it.

And to the rest of you guys, lets not bash this guy for having an opinion. Or for making a personal choice of whom to vote for. (unless it were Kerry). Lets respect the opinion of a young, fellow gun owner who is also a patriot.

What's more, lets try to convince him to do the right thing with logic, not emotion. (after all, we're not democrats for Odins sake)

Question: Why don't the Libertarians get Ron Paul or someone like him to run? He would be much more likely to get a sizable number of votes than someone like Badnarik.
