In Defense of Bob Barr
Politics June 23rd, 2008Liberty Maven is featuring an article begging for the support of libertarians for the Barr campaign. They pose some pretty good arguments, my favorite of which is the answer to my sentiments — that Bob Barr is no Ron Paul.
No one is Ron Paul except Ron Paul. No politician has the unblemished 30+ year record fighting for liberty like him. It is unfair and unwise to measure every candidate with the Ron Paul yard stick. There is a plus side to Bob Barr not being another Ron Paul. Bob Barr is trusted by conservatives who would never have considered voting for Ron Paul. Bob Barr gives these voters an open window to climb through into the liberty house.

I was a huckabee supporter, My second choice was Paul, But I will probably be voting for Barr. It would make it easier for me to vote Barr if Paul was on the ticket. Ive already signed the petition. I know its probably not going to happen though. http://www.BarrPaul08.com
