My guess is that many Elite members are Libertarians at heart, particularly on the issues of de-criminalization of drug use, gun control, and abortion.

My original post:

Bros,
I'm with Mr.T on this one...vote your conscience, not for a party...a vote for a third party candidate is NOT a wasted vote...a third party vote might not be a vote for the winner, but the two major parties (which are, for all intents and purposes, cogs in the same political machine) are forced to take notice when a third party candidate garners substantial popular support...I believe that the major parties' platforms are influenced and to a large extent modified according to the voice of the independents...witness Clinton's move to the center following Perot's relative success.
Regarding abortion, the following quote from the Libertarian Party platform states my view:

"Recognizing that abortion is a very sensitive issue and that people, including libertarians, can hold good-faith views on both sides, we believe the government should be kept out of the question.

We condemn state-funded and state-mandated abortions. It is particularly harsh to force someone who believes that abortion is murder to pay for another's abortion.

It is the right and obligation of the pregnant woman, not the state, to decide the desirability or appropriateness of prenatal testing, Caesarean births, fetal surgery, voluntary surrogacy arrangements, and/or home births."
