Sarvis isn’t a “fake” libertarian candidate, he is the real and authentic libertarian candidate.
Sarvis is a libertarian, the democrats are just helping to magnify his campaign.
You can believe that if you want but I don’t.
His positions are incoherent and inconsistent.
He is all in on medicare expansion and taxing based on miles driven. Medicare expansion is de facto support for OCare implementation. OCare is the most egregious infringement on liberty in decades. Most decidedly NOT a libertarian position. Taxing based on miles driven requires the government to monitor where and when you drive your car. Is that something a normal Libertarian would support? I think not.
Just because he’s cool with legalizing drugs doesn’t make him libertarian. Stupid, maybe. Not Libertarian.
You may believe he’s the real deal. I do not.
Furthermore, I believe he was another test case to see if the strategy of splitting conservative votes will work. Time will tell, but I suspect, in this case, it worked.
If he were a libertarian with any honor, knowing full well he can’t do anything but help the liberal democrat win, he would take the advise of the most successful libertarian candidate in the last 50 years by the name of Ron Paul and tell his supporters to vote for Cuccenilli. Libertarians are closet democrats and that’s why they love to see democrats beat republicans.
