To: Reagan Man
There is great compatibility between Reagan's views, and those of the disaffected Republicans who've gone Libertarian.
If the Republican party supported the values presented in REAGAN, IN HIS OWN HAND, there would be no "libertarian problem."
Some see libertarians as having left the party. But, ideologically, Republicans have left Reagan. They've apologized for and failed to defend Reagan's legacy.
Why should we reward their cowardice with our votes?

These "disaffected" Republican's, as you call them, who've become libertarians, are minuscule in number. They have no power or influence in American politics. Libertarians are of no consequence in the modern political arena and frankly, never will be. And there is no "libertarian problem". They're an annoyance at best.
Republicans haven't left Reagan either. Reagan's legacy as a great conservative Republican remains safe. Reagan is a conservative hero and not a libertarian hero. If libertarians want a hero they should look to that old fart Harry Browne or the looney, Ron Paul.
