CPAC2019
In years past CPAC has been 1/3 young Ron Paul student activist registrants, or Gary Johnson has had a booth and spoken. Certain libertarian-oriented groups - the Ayn Rand Institute, the Competitive Enterprise Institute - routinely have booths, often with tasty swag.
CPAC used to be held at a convenient Woodley Park hotel near a DC metro stop, but when "progressives" began to hire unemployed people via Craigslist to stand around the conference hotel holding protest signs, the organizing group, the American Conservative Union, relocated it to Prince George's County, Maryland, at the Gaylord National Resort on the Potomac. (One DC style section journalist then wrote that she was at "CPAC in Baltimore" when her ride share dropped her off, presumably mistaking the Potomac for the Baltimore harbor. She knew she was somewhere in flyover country.)
This year's CPAC displays little libertarian context in the program - though a very few conservatarians and libertarian-leaning conservatives are on the program (though many others, like Mary Katherine Ham or Guy Benson are not listed).
Georgetown University law professor and libertarian Randy Barnett is listed as a speaker. We will add dates and times of libertarian speakers or events when we learn them.
