With the presidential election pretty much over lots of people are pissed off and other are joyous this post is for both of them.
To take a phrase from South Park the choice is between a Giant douche and a Turd sandwich. Don't ask me which one is which because I can't tell. Lots of people vote for the lesser of two evils from my unscientific survey. They don't have to vote for evil, if you don't agree with the person you are voting for 75% or more on the issues then I have a solution for you.
Step 1 figure out how to do a write in vote.
Step 2 write in "Eliminate the office" this way you are not forcing your views on your neighbors.
Step 3 is hold your head high because you did not use force on your neighbors and tell your friends what you did.
The solution is viable in every race be it national, state, or local.

Ron Paul revolution and the next steps
The doctor has made a diagnosis and written a prescription, and a treatment has been outlined. Ron Paul is looking forward from everything I have seen and read from him and supporters. Looking back is not really that constructive, you do need to be aware of the past so you do not repeat the mistakes of old but you also need to look forward because that is where we all are going we do not have the technology to correct the mistakes of the past we do have the intelligence to not repeat those mistakes.
You may be asking where is this all going well of course it is going forward we are all creating our new trail in this forest. The Ron Paul campaign is not gone it has just changed as the caterpillar creates it cocoon in preparation for the new stage. The Ron Paul campaign has emerged from the cocoon and the beautiful butterfly is now fanning its wings so that soon it will be able to fly. The new stage of the campaign is now called the Campaign for Liberty http://www.campaignforliberty.com . All of the Ron Paul supporters now need to make a choice.
The road will be very diverse and we will all be working independently. I personally will be working toward a previous goal which is moving to New Hampshire to add my talents with the other activists in New Hampshire as a part of the Free State Project http://www.FreeStateProject.org (which Dr. Ron Paul has endorsed you can view here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CI9ZjjEtH4g).

In Memorial of the Libertarian Party
I was never a member of the Libertarian Party because I really did not want to be associated with a party but if I was forced to forced to join a party the Libertarian Party would have been my choice. The LP used to have principle that they followed but I now totally lost all faith in the party after the delegates nominated Barr and Root. Barr in my opinion is not even close to be principled enough to call himself a Libertarian and Root is a neo-con. Maybe this will cause the people in the LP to get back to the roots of the party but I really doubt it because of the people who I know that are leaving the party. This entire situation was discussed on Free Talk Live at www.FreeTalkLive.com with Ian Bernard, Mark Edggington, and Gardner Goldsmith.
Congratulations to the delegates at the Libertarian Party convention you have just lost my vote. I might have voted for the LP in November if either the Pres or the VP candidates were even close to principled. They could have put Barr Kubby ticket and I would have sucked up and checked that box but no you allowed 2 neo-cons get the nomination.
May the LP rest in piece it is now nothing more then a footnote in history.

New Hampshire Liberty forum Part 1
The next few posts will be my experiences from the New Hampshire Liberty Forum.
On Thursday I was driving from Western NY to Nashua NH. I went through some small towns in southern NH and was amazed at the beauty of the towns. I went through Winchester and thought that this is the quintessential New England town in winter. I am not a fan of snow but the beauty of the area is just breathtaking and with a couple of feet of snow (not on the roads) it just made the drive that much more beautiful.
When I arrived at the hotel I checked in and ran in to a few people I met at previous trips to NH. The first night was a cocktail sponsored by Sakal/CAI and had a book signing by multiple authors including F. Paul Wilson and Gardner Goldsmith. I purchased a book by Gardner and asked him to sign it and was shocked to see he wrote almost a paragraph, not just his name and had fun talking to the people he was signing books for.
On Friday the first real day for the Liberty Forum I went to the opening ceremony that had the organizer for the Liberty Forum, the president of the Free State Project, and Sharron Harris from the Advocates for Self Government talked about how to make the idea of liberty "sticky" which means that the idea is not just brushed off after the conversation.
In the afternoon I watched Peter Christ from Law Enforcement Against Prohibition speak about opening up the conversation about the Drug policy in America not the War on drugs or even legalization but just discussing the insane policy of prohibition. Peter was a police chief from Tonawanda, NY and after he retired he and few others from law enforcement created LEAP. Peter told a personal story from his families past during prohibition some of his relatives were involved with transporting alcohol from Canada in to Buffalo, this hit home for me because my Great Grandfather during prohibition had fights on his farm in Colts Station, PA and alcohol was consumed during the fights so it is possible that my family and his might have done business.
For the keynote address Bernard von Nothaus was slated to speak but in his stead was a person from the time of the founding of this great country sent by the founders the person was Captain Roughseas (who looked very similar to Bernard) Capitan Roughseas was sent to tell us that the founders were impressed with the people at the Liberty Forum and ashamed at what this country has become especially the situation with the money in the US. The speech was a event that I will not soon forget but I may go in to it with more detail later.
