Radical versus Moderate Libertarians

At least for now, the main differences between radical and moderate libertarians appear to be:
1. Moderate libertarians believe that the average American is not a libertarian (whereas radical libertarians believe that the masses are seething with libertarian revolutionary fervor), and
2. Moderate libertarians believe that the best reason to vote for a libertarian candidate is because a voter agrees with the candidate's views (whereas radical libertarians believe that voting for a libertarian candidate is not a "choice" but rather a moral obligation.)

That seems like a good policy launching point for a moderate libertarian caucus.
