What's the difference between a libertarian and a republican on views?

Unfortunately a lot of people in the Libertarian Party are freaking loons.

But there aren't a lot of loons in the Democrat or Republican parties...

The difference is that the Libertarians value your freedom.

Plain and simple.

1. Very true, but there are also "moderate" candidates in those 2 parties and I said that once Libertarians present a decent moderate candidate they will gain some political sway.

2. That very well could be - but either americans don't care(gets my vote ) or cherry pick issues to present the image of being "freedom hawks"

Whatever though, a third party will have a very tough time gaining much political pull without a major exodus of candidates from either(or both) party. I unfortunately don't see it happening in the near future.
