Ep 416: The Future of the Libertarian Party, with Paul Darr

Host Cody Cook sits down with Paul Darr, Vice Chair of the Libertarian National Committee, to explore the current state and future direction of the Libertarian Party. Darr shares his journey from foster care to military service, shaping his libertarian views through personal experiences with state overreach and incompetence. He discusses efforts to heal internal party divisions, particularly between the Mises and Classical Liberal Caucuses, emphasizing unity through shared goals like ballot access, membership growth, and coalition-building legislative initiatives such as Defend the Guard. Darr advocates for modernizing outreach, reviving Project Archimedes, and focusing on local elections to build a stronger foundation. Addressing Christian listeners, he frames libertarianism as a Christ-like pursuit of voluntary cooperation, urging active engagement to dismantle state coercion. With a nod to past leaders like Harry Browne, Darr outlines a pragmatic yet principled vision for a healthier, more effective Libertarian Party, ready to challenge the political duopoly.
