Libertarians Abroad is a group that was founded official on July 4th, 2003, in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), Vietnam, by Gary Dale Cearley. The original idea was a group for American Expatriates living around the world who were interested in libertarianism, members of the United States Libertarian Party, or associated with other libertarian minded groups such as the Campaign for Liberty. We were, and still are, proponents of the ideas of Thomas Paine, Thomas Jefferson, Ron Paul, F.A. Hayek, Ayn Rand, Ludwig Von Mises, Murray Rothbard and other giants, whether they be activists or intellectuals, of the libertarian world. Libertarian minded people who happen to be independent voters (or even non-voters) are welcome in our groups as well as people who support other libertarian parties (such as the Boston Tea Party) and libertarian leaning parties (such as the Constitution Party). And we have Republicans and Democrats who consider themselves champions of liberty involved as well. Yet the core of our support remains members who are Libertarian Party voters or members. Later we have had libertarians who were not Americans but were interested in being a part of the discussion. This has only made our group more well rounded and has served us well. We consider this to be a welcomed addition to our group and a learning experience for us all. If you are a libertarian come join us! You will be glad that you did and so will we!
