I suspect there are few pilots who are not libertarians at heart. The
two
mindsets mesh far too well for me to be the only one here.

Yeah, but so what? In the present system one needs to vote against
rather
than vote for, and to effectively vote against, you have to "side with"
the
strongest alternative. The LP may very well have some good principles,
but
I don't see them getting anywhere serious for a very long time, if ever.



This is a fight I have with my fellow LP members often. TO me, it is more
important that libertarian ideas prevail, not Libertarian candidates. If
that
means gently persuading Republicans and even some Democrats to become more
libertarian, then so be it.

That is a reasonable approach under the circumstances. At least you are
moving things in the right direction. Perhaps some of their ideas are
overly simplistic and/or naive but definitely a good start.
