Barr isn't a libertarian, which may even be apparent to the Libertarians in their current state. (He does fit one recent criteria for recent Libertarian candidates -- he has no real job.)

If this fails, maybe he'll get on the same ticket as Ralph Nader.

including former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel, who unsuccessfully sought the Democratic presidential nomination this year

Gravel too? Does this mean we can look forward to more exciting campaign ads from him?

I would have liked it more had he run and won the Constitution Party nomination. Not sure I could vote for him as a Liberaltarian though.

Golf still looks pretty good to me on November 4th.

I would never vote an aclu board member. I would never vote for paranoid anti government extremist who says Americans have damaged by the patriot Act but can't point to any examples. I would never vote for Bob Barr, whom I know personally.

Great for the diversity police. Another African-American in the race.

I used to have a very high opinion of Bob Barr.

Libertarians are not pro life and they are for legalized drugs. End of story.

I recently joined the Libertarian Party(LP) and I would votre for Barr if he runs. I voted GOP my whole adult life and I finally had to ask why. I realized the major parties have become arrogant and unresponsive. We are no longer a “representative” republic because no one in DC truly represents US. I got tired of the GOP pandering for evangelical votes by trying to out holy each other. We have had 8 years of a “conservative” President who has outspent even his most liberal predecessors. The GOP now expects that Capt Queeg will save us, even though he has no prblem trashing any semblance of core beliefs when it becomes politically expedient. At least the democrats don’t try to hide their socialism, they don’t have to. A majority of the electorate is either too lazy or too ignorant to realize that’s what it is.

I no longer believe that a vote for someone other than the 2 parties is wasted. A wasted vote would be for the lesser of 2 evils or for someone who does not represent my beliefs or views. Call me stupid if you wish. The LP may siphon votes from the GOP but they have no one to blame but themselves.
