libertarians are not conservatives

There are Conservative Libertarians,
just as there are Liberal Libertarians

Libertarians, as a group, dislike
Governmental Interference with Private Activity

From WikiPedia

Within the context of U.S. politics, a conservative libertarian is a person that adheres to the constitution as a libertarian does, but will do so in a conservative manner. Conservative libertarians are conservative in political nature, such as foreign policy, homeland security, and economics while strictly interpreting the constitution as it states. They tend to believe in equal rights, individual liberty, and equal opportunity for all. Conservative libertarians leave it up to the individual to determine what is right and wrong for themselves, and leave it up to the states to deal with many illegal or unjustified actions. Conservative libertarianism is also a political position that deals with morality and ethical beliefs, based that all people are created equal. It is also a position that does not allow religious beliefs to get in the way of allowing all people (regardless of their background, ethical standpoints, or religious standpoints) the promises of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness

Conservatives are conservative, not libertarians, libertarians are part of the radical left, but who agree with conservatives on economic issues.

Libertarianism is a modern alternative to the democrat party, and typical, routine liberalism, yet while still leading the fight against conservatism with a fresh new approach that fits the times. It gives the chance for some liberals to leave the democrats and take over the right from within.
