The Constitution Party platform sounds identical to that of the Libertarian Party at first. The CP supports limited government, private property rights, and an end to the Federal Reserve. However, the CP is what the LP would be if it were taken over by the Religious Right. Tossed in amongst the good stuff is some decidedly UN-Libertarian flotsam such as banning gambling, pornography, and supporting the drug war. The fact is that the Constitution Party is only concerned with freedom as far as it is guaranteed through their interpretation of the Bible.
