"Libertarian" is such a broad label that yes, I think it could apply. Thanks for being open to checking things out here. I usually just get an earful from Mr. Kokesh's supporters as if I were the devil incarnate whenever I raise any points of contention. Glad others are also willing to take an objective view.

I totally get the enthusiasm, but I also hate to see such a beautiful philosophy as voluntaryism applied as a label to plans that would require force to uphold, and honest voluntaryists or new anarchists donating thousands of dollars to a pipe dream about changing Nazism "from the inside," which is essentially what this is. The state is at it's core evil, and to imagine that they would, via their own systems allow a vocal opponent to assume a seat of high power in their own system strikes me as, well, pretty delusional. Another election in which voluntaryists are persuaded to legitimize a system that is, down to its very core, pure evil.

But yeah, I get the enthusiasm many have, I just think it's misplaced. That said, I'm watching too, far away from my own little seat, not as a fan or supporter, but in anticipation of reality showing up.
