As Ronald Reagan was said, "True Conservative Principles have their roots in Libertarianism".
Unfortunately, even if a Libertarian were to win the presidency, both the Republicans and the Democrats would seek to destroy it. They would have everything to lose if this took hold.
The only way Libertarianism could EVER works would be at a grassroots effort to fill first Congress then the Senate with Libertarian candidates, then once they would have sufficient numbers, (I would say bare minimum 25 to 33% of at least one house), only then would they be able to successfully launch a Presidential Campaign AND have a president that could ACTUALLY get something done.

America is not a Socialist country, this is why the only democrats who ever win, are democrats who SOUND like Republicans (Hello Bill Clinton - "
Low taxes, Free Trade, Welfare Reform, Era of Big Government Over" - Sounds Republican -
Hello Barrack Obama - "My Tax Cut is Bigger than yours, Your Health Care Plan is Big Government, Parents need to take responsibility for their kids schooling]").
