I consider myself a Libertarian but I might just be a Pirate ☠ from what I have read so far. I also think most Libertarians will align with the Pirate Party. We all know how hard it is for third parties to compete with the corrupt 2 party system in the US. The LP has managed to get ballot access in all 50 states which has not been easy. I know here in Texas they just made it where LP candidates have to pay a $750 registration fee where before they paid nothing. This is going to make it where even less people will want to run for office. That is exactly what they hoped for I am sure. Now I am going to do a little more research into this party before I walk the plank. I would like to say Congratulations to the newly elected officers. #Stradog
