Not quite.
Libertarian's are Green's are kind of similar. Economically is where there's the most difference.
As for abortion, Badnarik is personally against it, but he feels it should be decided at the state (not federal) level.
Overall in general, yes, the Libertarian party is for abortion. The debate is when life begins and whether or not you're killing the fetus.
I'm not going to answer any more in here about the LP, if you have more questions, just PM any of the libertarians/greens on the board or make a new post please

It behooves those who are not to broker power until a viable third or fourth or fifth party can exist. Currently, we are very far from that point.

What is a major player though and how do you define one?
The problem I have with people being shut out is actually being in Minnesota visiting family when Ventura won the Gubernatorial election. No one really thought of Ventura as a major player, and no one really treated him as such. The reason he won was because the people of Minnesota were just frustrated with the Democratic and Republican candidates. He wasn't the greatest Governer in the world and it could be said that the Democrat or Republican could have done better. If people had heard more of Ventura's message they might have voted differently, so basically because Ventura wasn't heard, he might have won the election. (Sorry if that made little sense, it's 2:38 am and I'm a little tired.)
