Why don't you run, Bryan? I'd vote for you. I think you'd be a good ambassador and a smoother talker than Paul.
At least the libertarian punditocracy on the web would probably be behind you.
Something to think about :)
But then again, you hate politics and the process even more than I do. Plus, they'd grill you for your book. :)
Your idea seems good. But the thing is even from what i read from reasonably moderate blogs such as this, and distributed republic, it does seems that the core supporters of your ideaology are indeed crazy. it is not that they fail to express their ideas correctly. it is that their ideas are so over-the-top that non-supporters instantly deem the supporters as outrageous and don't listen to them. and i personally find many of the ideas outrageous as well. perhaps this view is shared by other readers who are not core supporters??
As I've argued before, the best way to fight negative stereotypes is for people unfairly subject to the negative stereotype to use in-group peer pressure to raise the bar. In short: "Stop making me look bad!"
Doubtful. Those making the stereotype aren't looking for an accurate description of their targets, they're looking to demean other people. The better path is to fight the denigration of other people based on group membership, i.e., to attack the foundations of collectivism.
