From the Editor:

Last week I received this nice note from a regular reader of the Blog. I'm not in the habit of posting "Letters to the Editor," but this one asked a very important question, that I wish to respond to for the benefit of all our readership.

Mr. Dondero,

I've been a fan of yours for some time now, and am curious--are you still actively involved in the LP, or do you believe that a libertarian's electability is better suited to the RLC? I am extremely intrigued by the RLC, and have doubts of my own about LP candidates' viability, especially with the electoral college structure. I would appreciate if you could share your personal beliefs on this.

Firstly, I'm a Lifetime Member of the Republican Liberty Caucus, having Founded the organization in 1990. But I'm also a dues-paying Member of the Libertarian Party and have been for over 25 years, on and off.

What I advocate in this regard? Be a member of both, and be active in both. Mostly the RLC is best for practical politics. But once in a while, like a special election, or an election where no Republican is on the ballot, the Libertarian Party serves a very useful purpose.

It's only about $60.00 a year: $30.00 to rlc.org, and another $30.00 to lp.org Too much dinero? Send one $30.00 for the first 6 months of the year, and the other one the other $30.00 the second half.
