The republican party is an excellent recent example for this actually. The teabaggers rebellion didn't run third party candidates, they ran in party primaries and started knocking out incumbents. The remainder of the party saw this in action and moved fairly quickly to align with the insurgent faction out of simple self-interest. The result was that the party shifted rather significantly to the right to accommodate them which meant that they ended up getting much of what they wanted.
The grassroots, "teabaggers", and Ron Paul libertarians, did not get what they wanted. They were exiled from the party. The party rules were changed so that any sort of grassroots rebellion could be extinguished.
I understand the theory you're suggesting. It isn't working though. We aren't getting the liberty, peace, and prosperity we deserve. We're getting more of the same.
What we need to do is to choke that stubborn senile elephant, and replace it with what it use to stand for, libertarianism.
As far as the Democrats are concerned, well... keep it classy.
What the hell are you talking about? If Ron Paul won and got his agenda, the future would be destroyed for well over 99% of the country. Most people for generations would not even finish high school, let alone college; because they wouldn't be able to afford it. Workers would become the property of the companies they work for, bought and sold like furniture. Voting would be meaningless, as corporations would have all the power to rig elections their preferred way - not that it would matter since most people would be working 80 hour weeks with no time off to go and vote regardless. Our water, air, and land would all be polluted for profit and people would have no recourse as the courts would be owned by the corporations as well.
I don't think you understand how free markets and private property rights work. The big corporations are using the government regulations as leverage against small businesses and/or other competition. It's the government that unconstitutionally takes from the people, and gives to the corporations. It's the cronyism that's the problem.
Even if you don't think Ron Paul is perfect, he's way better than either of these crony-capitalist/corporatist scumbags that aren't any different from one another.
For the fraction of 1% of the US that would benefit from that, sure, a vote for Ron Paul would be great. For the rest of us it would be terrible. Thankfully even if he somehow did win, he has nowhere near enough support in congress to accomplish his ultra-right-wing agenda. That means, of course, that a vote for Ron Paul would be a vote for gridlock and the status quo.
Wouldn't it be nice not to have a president working for the propaganda machine? For thirty years Ron Paul has been speaking the truth. He's predicted so many things that have come true. He's been using the facts, and not just telling the people what they want to hear.
No parent would take their child to a pediatrician that doesn't have adequate experience.
The Internet exists to provide background checks and competing services.
The Government isn't required for certifying pediatricians. Universities aren't government institutions. They are accredited private institutions with public interests. It's the credibility of the certifying organization that's important.
All of this is driven by the free market. All of this can be applied in every industry; not just pediatricians.
Zend Framework not only provides a great framework in terms of programming, but also as a learning guide. Zend Framework helps provide everything that is described above. Using the source as a reference, it helps develop good programming habits and understand proper design patterns.
I think we need a more in depth explanation of his position on net neutrality, 1st amendment rights and how they will be protected on the internet while maintaining a free market.
If that's not bad enough, during the installation process, the user is informed of what the application needs in order to function. "Internet Connectivity" has to be one of them. If the user isn't questioning why their wallpaper needs Internet Access, something is wrong.

Since we're talking about XMPP, can I suggest Google Wave be brought to the table again?
Through the Wormhole is a pretty good one too.
There are other JavaScript frameworks, beside jQuery, that support CSS selectors. i.e. Prototype

There's a difference between social conservatives and fiscal conservatives.
Try this simile on for size.

Boy it would be nice to actually see said video...
Apart from the commission, this sounds like Freshmeat, Tucows, or Sourceforge.
They probably make money off of ad revenue

I hope this means they finally have Eddy Van Halen and learned how to play.

I think you might find this of mild interest.
