First, a clarification.  This is not about the views of the people on 
it, but their understanding of what the oath/pledge/credo/whatnot says.  
So, for the list, I don't actually care what a libertarian's views are 
on what a libertarian is, just on what the oath/pledge/credo/whatnot 
means (if anything) and what ought to be done about the requirement (if 
anything).

For that matter, the person doesn't even have to be a libertarian to 
make the list.  I'd love to put Milton Friedman or Walter Williams on 
it.  (Looks like Carl Milsted, Jr. goes on, based on this: 
<http://www.freemarketnews.com/Analysis/34/4369/2006-04-03.asp?wid=34&nid=4369>)

Anyone who seeks to be on the LP presidential ticket or hold an LNC 
position (or get a campaign contribution from me) is going to be on it, 
if only as an abstainer.  If they want my support, they're going to have 
to be in favor of scrapping it.

The purpose is to have a list, so that when someone claims the o/p/c/w 
clearly means such-and-so, I or anyone else can say, "That view is far 
from unanimous, so even if it does mean what you say, it's far from 
clear", and direct them to the list.  (And add them to it.)

The list is at

I'll add Paul to the list as OTKP, unless he tells me otherwise.  I 
should also ask him if he would support a resolution at the national 
convention to reword the o/p/c/w so that meaning is clear.

For that matter, how about you?  NBKP?   -Eric
