Excellent Reason to Vote for Bob Barr

Hi N_G_J,

I agree with you that neo-cons are running the United States Government and the Republican Party. Here is Bob Barr's statement on the Iraq War:

"The invasion and occupation of Iraq were two separate mistakes, which collectively have cost thousands of American lives and hundreds of billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars. Every day that the occupation in Iraq continues without a withdrawal plan is a day that more American blood and treasure (some $400 million a day) is needlessly wasted.

Unlike Republicans, who are calling for essentially permanent bases in Iraq, and Democrats, who have done nothing to counter Republican calls for an indefinite occupation, I would put in place plans for withdrawal without undue delay. While I support an exit from Iraq as quickly as possible, I would not publicly announce a timetable to our adversaries. However, as President, I would begin to immediately and significantly begin to reduce both the military and the economic security blanket we are providing the government.

The Iraqi government has come to rely too heavily on American forces to maintain control of its country, and our U.S. taxpayer dollars to artificially support its economy. A continued U.S. presence in Iraq emboldens both insurgents and terrorists, and discourages the Iraqi government from taking control of promoting peace and prosperity in Iraq."

Are these the words of a Neo-Con?

I am a consistent contibuter to the Libertarian Party but I do not run it. I also was one of the earliest supporters of Ron Paul since I voted for him in 1988 and was his 18th financial contributer when he announced his campaign for the Republican nomination. I am sorry that the Republican Party did not nominate him. The Libertarian Party offered him our nomination but he declined. So I ask you to help us make a significant impression on the American public by gathering sufficient votes for Bob Barr so that he comes in third behind McBama. Thanks for all you do for liberty. Best regards.

Hi Tessie101,

I was disappointed that Bob Barr didn't show up for Ron Paul's Press Conference, too. But that does not make him a neo-con. Barr is speaking out against pre-emptive war and the military industrial complex empire overseas. He is fighting every day for the US Constitution. He has in the past two weeks been campaining in Indiana, Ohio, Virginia, South Carolina, and now he is in Colorado. Here is a recent interview on a Denver TV station: http://www.9news.com/news/article.aspx?storyid=102159&catid=339 I think you will agree that he does not sound like a Neo-con in that interview. The Libertarian Party is always there, election after election, contesting the Demopublicans who are destroying our freedoms. Please don't make one strategic error on Barr's part turn you off to everything we are doing. Thank you for all you are doing for liberty. Best regards.

Hi rlcmcallen,

Yes, it does look strange as mustaches are out of fashion these days. However, he may look better with it than without it! Some of my friends and even my wife told me that Ron Paul had a whiny voice. I encouraged them to listen to what he was saying and then the sound of the voice was less of a distraction. Bob Barr is speaking out against the bailouts and the ruin of our currency and is reaching many people through his TV appearances who are looking for an alternative and just finding out about the value of liberty. I encourage you to vote for Bob Barr so we can build a stronger and more effective Libertarian Party in the future. Thank you for all you do for liberty. Best regards.

before he grew it out.

Hi Kevin,

I appreciate and share your concern for the US Constitution. When Bob Barr was a Republican Congressman he did vote for some things that he now knows were incorrect. I appreciate someone who realizes when they have made an error and is trying to do the right thing. Now Bob Barr is speaking out daily on TV, radio and in personal campaign appearances about the same topics that you and I are concerned about. He now is speaking about the need for dedication to the US Constitution. He is often asked about his previous positions. It is not easy for a politician to publically be questioned about their change of positions. That is why almost none of them ever do so. But I appreciate Bob Barr's willingness to try to advance the cause of liberty. We have an opportunity to make a lasting impression on the American public with a strong showing for a Presidential candidate who is not willing to bail out everyone like McBama with our taxes and who is not willing to destroy our currency. I appreciate your efforts for other alternative candidates, who are much better than McBama. But I think that Bob Barr will have the best chance to make progress for us libertarians in this General Election. Thanks for all you do for liberty. Best regards.

Thank aVoiceof Reason,

I am glad that you are leaning to Bob Barr and I hope that you will decide to vote for him. The Libertarian Party members really appreciate your interest. We have been fighting this good fight for liberty and US Constitution for 30 years. Our Presidential candidates, which vary in likeability from election cycle to election cycle, come and go but our Party keeps on relentlessly speaking out for the individual's freedom, peace and true prosperity. Bob Barr is not my ideal candidate but he is our horse in this race. He has the best chance to get public attention for an alternative to more of the same from the Demopublicans. Please help us out. You will be glad you did because the Libertarian Party will be stronger and you will have more choices in the future. Bob Barr will be on the McNeil Leher Hour TV show on October 20 from 6 to 7 pm. The first time in the LP's history that our Presidential candidate has been interviewed there. Thanks for all you do for liberty. Best regards.

Hi e_goldstein,

Monday, October 20 will be a hectic day for Bob Barr, the Libertarian Party Presidential candidate on TV and radio.

He’ll switch gears for a bit and talk with Thom Hartmann on the Air America Radio Network at 12pm. You need to check http://airamerica.com/stations to find the Air America station in your town.

Thanks for all you do for liberty. Best regards.

Hi Tirade,

Good for you. The Libertarian Party is bigger than just one candidate. Everyone of our Presidential candidates has had faults and made errors of judgement. But to build a freedom movement we need to hang together and keep on building. We may make our best showing ever for a Presidential candidate. Thanks for all you do for liberty. I hope we have an opportunity to meet at some LP function in the future. Best regards.

Hi NeoConned,

Although we know all about Ron Paul's New Conference with alternative Presidential candidates and Bob Barr's changing his mind about attending, 98%+ of voters do not know anything about it. However, while handing out leaflets to shoppers over the past four weekends, I have heard numerous people say that they saw Bob Barr on a TV news interview and were glad that he was opposed to the bailout and against an American military empire abroad. Although I was disappointed that Bob Barr did not attend Ron Paul's news conference, it really is immaterial in the General Election. We have an excellent opportunity to make an impact on this election by having a defender of the US Constitution receive a large vote total and come in third place behind McBama. It also will strengthen the Libertarian Party's ballot status for years to come so we can use our future funds for advertising rather than signature gathering to get on ballots. Thanks for your time and all you do for liberty.

wrong. He wants to leave it up to the states. He's stated as much in several youtubes.
