2. December 11: Founding Day of the Libertarian Party

libertarian-party-a-good-idea-gone-mad

On this fateful day in 1971, the Libertarian Party was officially founded in Colorado Springs. Colorado. Truly, the LP is the only existing party which truly advocates for individual freedom. The LP hasn’t found much electoral success. However, they have been a steadfast ally of freedom-fighters across the US.

As it stands, they are the only party pushing a freedom agenda this election cycle. Without them, libertarians would have no logical alternative to Clinton or Trump. Indeed, a strong showing by presidential candidate Gary Johnson could finally vindicate their founding. Instead of a holiday that does little to advance the cause of freedom, the LP’s founding date would be a vast improvement.
