    Secession is the only way to go. America is being overrun by socialists. They want their handouts, and this election showed to what length they will go to get them. Libertarians and Republicans alike need to bind together to fight the socialist movement. Secession is our only hope.

    Yes more of a Paleo-Conservative platform would be preferred but I wouldn't mind more of a Libertarian flavor. Neo-Conservatism is dead and so is Social Conservatism. I am very happy to see this form of Conservatism die but if our party continues to embrace it our party will go with it. The Libertarian faction of our party cried out to hear them that they will not conform to the same old status quo and when our party ignored them, snubbed them, and even changed the rules on the floor to rid them of their greatest member's chances at winning the nomination, they told the party: "Good luck in 2012 without us" and now we have 4 more years of one of the worst President's in history.

    The Libertarian party stands on rational politics, we don't need Republicans corrupting it.

    Yes. Social conservatism belongs to Muslamists and Arabs not to REAL Americans.
