"but the recurring theme on this thread is street drugs."

My perception is that it's brought up by those obsessed with maintaining the status quo.

"I refer again to the post-convention statements by Harry Browne stating that legalization of drugs would become the defining issue nationally in 2004"

I believe you misheard that. I haven't heard him say that. It is a core issue, not the core issue. Again, it is no more or less important than any other issue that pertains to individual freedom and the absolute right of the person to choose his own destiny.

IMO, it is yourself that has an inordinate amount of interest in the issue. I wouldn't be shocked if I went back and counted the number of posts referring to the issue on this thread and found that the near totality of them were a combination of posts by you and responses to those posts.

I must say, I do find it ironic that a fellow with your position calls himself 'budweeder'. It really does sound like a character from a Cheech & Chong movie.

BTW, you can find a link to Mr. Browne's web site in my profile. Perhaps you could go there and find for us where he said that 'street drugs' are the central issue to the Libertarians.

Regards,

Barb
