Do you believe we'll have a libertarian president anytime soon?

Conservatives on social issues irk me, and liberals on fiscal issues greatly irk me... When, oh when will we have a libertarian president who promotes equality through liberty?

    I would think after this next president will be the most likely, right now people hate liberals, they did hate conservatives and i say this next president will be conservative then people will se none of them are good and go with someone in the middle, that listem to the people.

    Don't hold your breath! Libertarianism is a "hands-off" approach to governance, the exact OPPOSITE of both the Republican approach (who want to legislate your "morals", your body, and your "taste" AND those of the rest of the world....using YOUR money!) and the Democratic approach (they just want what's in your wallet!)....

    In the real world, your only logical path is to vote Democrat and get a really good accountant!

    Not in my lifetime.

    The closest you could possibly get is RP, who won't get 2012 unless it's a miracle, and he'll be too old by 2016/2020.

    Never. When Americans actually see what Libertarian means, they will not support it.
