Root still identified as Libertarian in media

by George J. Dance

October 4, 2012 - On September 6, former Libertarian Party vice-presidential candidate Wayne Allyn Root resigned all of his positions in the Libertarian Party, Libertarian National Committee (LNC), and Libertarian National Campaign Committee (LNCC), in order to endorse and campaign for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. However, a month later, Root is still being identified in the media as chairman of the LNCC.

For example, the biography appended to Root's October 4 FOX News opinion piece, "Mitt Romney is the smartest guy in the room," reads: "Wayne Allyn Root is a capitalist evangelist and serial entrepreneur. He is a former Libertarian vice presidential nominee. He now serves as chairman of the Libertarian National Campaign Committee. He is the best-selling author of "The Conscience of a Libertarian: Empowering the Citizen Revolution with God, Guns, Gold & Tax Cuts." For more, visit his website: www.ROOTforAmerica.com."
