And frankly sir, you have just mis characterized what a Libertarian actually is.

A Libertarian believes that the government needs to be extremely small in order to serve the people (because history has shown that once the government gets too big, then the people serve it). A Libertarian believes in capitalism, free trade, and free markets.

This is correct. And they also believe that the government should be used for fundamental reasons, one of those being security of the United States.

My point being that if you say you are a libertarian, yet your writing clearly states otherwise, then how ore your readers supposed to get past the confusion? This could be the problem you are having with traffic.

Actually sir, my traffic probably hasn't thought twice about it; you are simply pointing it out because you most likely disagree with what I wrote, which is a rather childish personal attack.

If you make up your own fairy tale about what the term Libertarian means then yes, I don't fit the profile.

If you decide you truly are Libertarian I would highly recommend studying the great Libertarian, Harry Browne. In fact you can listen to his archived radio show at his website Harry Browne: libertarian politics, articles, books, & speeches, and investments. I would also suggest studying Austrian Economics which you can read the great Murray Rothbard's works for free at The Mises Institute

You can be a member of a political party without agreeing with everything they believe in. Do we agree?

If you decide you are not Libertarian, then I wish you the best of luck in searching for your truth. I think it is important to remain consistent no matter what you do and who you choose to be; they go hand-in-hand.

Thank you for your comments.
