It might make people more suspicious of what one might be trying to hide. <br /><br />We should emphasize the things we have in common and the areas where we can cooperate, but a merger of any sort isn't in the cards.Mike aka Proofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08931553845065187278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6774510750415512728.post-71526387305778315142010-04-13T10:56:09.185-04:002010-04-13T10:56:09.185-04:00I listened to Mr Root just last Saturday 4/10/10 a...I listened to Mr Root just last Saturday 4/10/10 at a Libertarian meeting in Oconomowoc, WI.<br /> He spoke about "re-branding" the libertarian party and how similar we were to the Tea Party.
