Hello Matt,

 >> Since you are not going to be able to vote Paul (at least as the
 >> Republican) and you are not going voting for BO... why bother to vote?

MM>If Libertarians get 5% they can qualify for matching funds.

Declared 2012 Libertarian candidates for President -

* Roger Gary
* R. J. Harris
* Gary Johnson
* Carl Person
* R. Lee Wrights

Elections are not about qualifying for matching funds.
Elections are about winning.

Politics is about contrasts.
Today, there is very little difference between the Democratic
Party and the Republican Party.  You could throw all the candidates
into a sack, shake them up, and spit out a winner.  Few people would
notice the difference, or care.

What does the Libertarian Party have to offer that is different
from the Democratic Party and the Republican Party?  Where is the
contrast?  Show me, if you can.

Among the above mentioned Libertarian candidates for president,
how do they differ from each other?  What policies does each promote?
Libertarians such as Ron Paul are much different than liberatarians
such as Noam Chomsky.  And yet, there are many similarities.

Most people have no idea what libertarians stand for, except
perhaps for minimalist government.  Perhaps you can help explain
what libertarianism is, or at least its American version.
