Forming a town committee for the Libertarian Party would give Darien conservatives a way to show Edmund Burke's, the philosophical founder of modern conservatism, abhorrence of the mob. That Trump Republicans scoffed at the assault on our capitol with smirks and sneers forever denies them conservative support. On the other hand the Libertarian Party did have Gary Johnson and William Weld, both successful Republican Governors of blue states, on the party ticket for President and Vice President in 2016. Michigan Congressman Justin Amash resigned from the Republican Party in 2020 and joined the Libertarian Party. Expect others to be primaried or censured out as a major party dies off and a lesser one takes its place as did the Whig party after its loss of the election of 1852. Currently the Libertarian Party with core values of honoring the Constitution, rule of law, and small government best represents conservative principles with which to loyally argue against Democrat overreach. As a minor party we have hard work ahead to let conservative values rise again.
Will you join us in forming a town Committee? The committee would interview and recruit candidates for local offices, some could be resigning Republicans, during the next few months in preparation for a town convention in late July. After which the candidates would be submitted to the Secretary of State and would appear on the November 2021 ballot.
