The men and women sitting at the Libertarians at Virginia Tech booth during Gobblerfest 2009 were asked a single question more than any other: "Are Libertarians liberal or conservative?" The question is reasonable, but difficult to answer. First a libertarian and a Libertarian (a member of the political party with the same name) can often have huge separations in terms of beliefs. The answer to the question could be different depending on the actual subject.
