Standing by your beliefs is one thing, putting your vote towards an un-electable candidate is another. He's not even going for a 3rd-party vote, he's trying to be the Republican nominee. You know just as well as I do that he will not be the GOP nominee. As I said, I respect many Libertarian ideas, but I'm also realistic. He will not move far enough towards the center to be elected. All candidates must move towards the center during the election cycle, whether from the right or the left, to get elected. He's a fringe candidate.
