You say there is no conspiracy, yet news programs are not only not running any stories of Badnarik but actively filtering stories with him in it. As well as even giving people an ultimatum of "Don't mention Libertarian or Badnarik, or you will not get an interview."
You'd think that someone that got on the state ballots of 48 states would generate at least one story on CNN. Even if it was a "This useless candidate got on 48 state ballots and thinks he can go againts the two headed machine, what a fool" story.
Now, yes your writing was unclear, your points were great, if a little unresearched, and you may even be right. Clear evidence and common sense will dictate otherwise.
For someone that has made it on 48 states don't you think there should be at least some media coverage? Replace Badnarik with Nader and you will get over 500, replace with one of the two heads and you will get about 4 times what nader gets.
I think I have been in the news more than Micheal Badnarik. Why is that?
30 whole states????

Why does this guy get all kinds of press when he is only on 30 states ballots. When Michael Badnarik is on 48 states and libertarian party has a far larger percentage of votes.......
Ohh yea Nader takes votes from Democrats and is a tool for the Republicans.
Not really Hispanic culture promotes large (sometimes huge) families. While USian culture promotes independence. Where USians usually try to move out at 18. Hispanic cultures are discouraged and the rest of the family many times is very offended if you even consider independence. Several Hispanic homes, including my next door neighbor, have 4 generation in them.
Ohh yes, I see lots of Hispanic bums, they just don't usually pan handle on the streets but in their own homes.
While getting rid of most federal programs they also want to put responsibility on corporations. It should be easy to put someone or a group of someones in charge of a horribly negligent product/process/manufacturing etc... One thing is investors, making investors responsible for what they invest in. I think it would help many many things.
you could put out your demo as being the fans. That way anyone could download the demo and be a fan and watch the games play through and chear or what ever.
I think it has to do with the duality of Americans. things have to be black or white, good or evil. Look at the way campaign goes. Dems rip on the Reps, Reps rip on the Dems. They emphasize the few points that they differ on to make sure they look totally different when they really are about 90% the same. but as long as they each vilify the other you end up with a great black and white campaign.
Which would be a great part of an approval system of voting because it would help keep the government in a more centerest posission. Some say it is a winner of comprimise as a bad thing. I see this as the best possibility of all. Get rid of the extreame left/right swing back and forth, get the government a little more centered, where it should be.
I am a libertarian I belive many, but not all, of the libertatian views and ideals. I also understand that there is no one system that is going to work best, or for everybody. swirling around the center of the political chart we are the better off I think every one ends up.
An aspireing Michael Moore? Your sig is Fact, that's what he said, but it is so far out of context and missing so much information that it might as well be a fairy tail.
Wrong, they don't "need" a hot fire. They only have fires to get rid of the dead wood that the greens lobby against cleaning out because some animal may live in there.
Without cleaning these forests out we get forest fires. a fire isn't required and is actually quite damageing during dry seasons because it kills off ALL the live trees as well. Controlled burning and wood fuel cutting permits go along way to prevent forest fires.
Ohh, of course not. That's why Walmart is about to go bankrupt and the Linux Monopoly has squished Microsoft on the verge of obsolesces. If it wasn't for the well informed consumers buying things due to diligent research and investigation rather than marketing and lowest possible price we'd be stuck with more cheap crap that unknowingly brings our standard of living down while producing the illusion of wealth.
Because lazy people desrve to have a life as well so we take it from you people that like to work for a living and use it to pay things like welfare and social security.
"If you were in prison and you had a 50% choice of lethal injection, a 45% chance of going to the electric chair and only a 5% chance of escape, are you likely to vote for lethal injection because that is your most likely outcome? If you continue to vote for the Democrats or the Republicans, you are committing political suicide!"
Degree? It took me one Macro economics class. Maybe it was the Republican teacher. Maybe I was the only one paying attention. But in the end I didn't want anything to do with Rep or Dem on economic issues.
It's not so much that they draw from either. You can be the bigest redneck biggot christian ahole, or the biggest pot smokeing tree hugging lazy hippie. As long as you think the government shouldn't dictate what you can or can't do you need to look at Libertarian view points.
Thank you, like most political parties they have great ideas. I believe in conservation and I drive a Hybrid, and I have replaced 90% of my lights with fluorescent bulbs. They get a little bit nutz when they start going against GM crops and Nuclear power, both of witch I support strongly, but they really lose me when they decided that the government needs to mandate things. Get rid of the Nuclear subsidy and the florescent light subsidy and let the market decide.

Ok, ok, you may be right. Lets see if any of the main sites seem to be blocking access to someone that is on 48 state balots:
CNN = 0
FoxNews = 5
msnbc = 4
abc = 5

I guess it's because he's not trying

That's why I love my XM Radio.
they have two channels
Radio Left
Radio Right
somewhere around either 67 or 167 and 68 or 168. They clearly identify what they are and I can listen to which ever one I want to piss me off.
I only now wish they had a Radio Middle/Libertarian. Sure would fit me better.
Of course it isn't that easy. You close the Head not the Brain.
Come on its Brain Surgery, not Rocket Science.
they'll be given a new task to take care of.
Simple fix:
[ ] Real time scheduler
[x] regular schedular (suggested for desktops and servers)
Yea I really like people that try to offend everybody.

He has about 5% in most states but that only gives him a chance to win if 21 other candidates come in and take ~4.9% or less each

From the article:
"If you were in prison and you had a 50% choice of lethal injection, a 45% chance of going to the electric chair and only a 5% chance of escape, are you likely to vote for lethal injection because that is your most likely outcome? If you continue to vote for the Democrats or the Republicans, you are committing political suicide!"
Remember the Solution matrix:
Democrats - What ever the problem, more government is the solution.
Republicans - What ever the problem, more government is the solution, just not as much as Democrats.
Libertarians - What ever the problem, less government is the solution.
Degree? It took me one Macro economics class. Maybe it was the Republican teacher. Maybe I was the only one paying attention. But in the end I didn't want anything to do with Rep or Dem on economic issues.
