I looked up Libertarian in my Funk n Wagnalls, and there's a picture of Thomas Jefferson with the article. The fascists hated a lot of people, but certainly communists and libertarians were among them. We aren't communists, so we must be libertarians. See donkiez cite of Wikipedia a few posts back.
A press conference announcing the new party was held on January 31, 1972 at the party's headquarters in Westminster, Colorado. The first national convention, attracting 89 delegates from 23 states, was held that June in Denver, Colorado. According to Ron Crickenberger, former Political Director of the LP, a search of LP records showed that the LP had elected Miguel Gilson-De Lemos in a partisan local board race in New York even before the adoption of its first platform.[citation needed] Several others were also elected or appointed that year. Party leaders initially doubted they would even see six people elected or appointed by 2001, so this led to early optimism among some. However, in subsequent years the number of people in office seemed to be about 1% of its donor base: approximately 30 officeholders with 3,000 donors in 1981; 100 in office and 10,000 donors in 1991; and 600 and 60,000 in 2001.[citation needed] By the 1972 presidential election, the party had grown to over 80 members and had attained ballot access in two states. Their presidential ticket, John Hospers and Theodora (Tonie) Nathan, earned between 3,000 and 4,000 votes, but received the first and only electoral college vote for a Libertarian presidential ticket, from Roger MacBride of Virginia, who was pledged to Richard Nixon. His was also the first vote ever cast for a woman in the United States Electoral College. MacBride became the party's presidential nominee in the 1976 Presidential Election. The 1976 election established the Libertarian Party as the #1 alternative political party in the United States, and it remains the most successful alternative political party since the end of the Second World War. In 1978, Dick Randolph became the first Libertarian to win State-level office with his election to the Alaska House of Representatives.[citation needed] Two years later, he won another term and Ken Fanning was also elected as a Libertarian to that chamber.
Hey Mags I saw this and thought of you, so I'll just go ahead and leave it right here in this thread.
Thanks buddy! I'll make sure to use this meme when liberals spew their none sense on Twitter and Facebook. This will be very useful!
Did you delete Post #1? My post answered your opening post, but now it makes no sense. Now, anyone starting the thread will be lost and confused.
No posts have been deleted in this thread. The post Mags made to start this thread hasn't been touched.
Then someone edited my post to make me look stupid. I swear by the Costco eggnog I hold in my hand that it made sense when I wrote it. Maybe it was another moderator? You have many pretenders around here, Sly. When will you throw your hat into the ring?
