The Volokh Conspiracy has some interesting thoughts (again) on why libertarians are destined to suffer perpetually.
My realistic side believes that it would be so much easier to infiltrate someone else’s party (cough cough Republicans cough cough) and point it in the “correct” direction instead of trying to reverse the brainwashing of a mass of people indoctrinated, err educated, in the public school system.
Realistically, people have a hard time comprehending anything Thomas Jefferson ever wrote, much less see how it applies to their lives 200 years later.  And truth be told, he’s one of the biggest reasons we are now stuck in a two party system–200 years later.
