But they do not provide enough room for everyone that wants to attend. 3,700 seats is not enough for everyone in the party. Unless you think that Libertarianism is that unpopular that it has less members than the KKK.

But how do you know they don't provide enough room for everyone that wants to attend? Were there more than 3,700 people that registered to attend the convention and, consequently, some of those people were turned away?
It isn't that libertarianism is unpopular. In fact, there are quite a lot of people who espouse libertarian ideals. It's that the Libertarian Party is not that popular because of people like you, the Democrats, the Republicans, and the media idiots who keep on telling them that only the Democrats and Republicans have a chance of winning or not voting for a Democrat or a Republican is to steal a vote from the Democrat or Republican or third parties aren't viable; it's that state laws make it much harder for parties other than Democrat and Republican to get on the ballot; it's that the media won't report other parties the way they report Democrats and Republicans. The system is intentionally rigged against other parties.

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.
"Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes toward the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.
"I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up."
The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.
"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."
