When Tyrsis first published his Campaign for Congress in Louisiana under the Capitalist Alternative, he feared its name would isolate potential voters and supporters. Attempting to appeal to all Americans, he changed the newspaper's name to Liberty and Prosperity and changed the newspaper logo. All articles previously published under the Capitalist Alternative were revised to no longer mention the Capitalist Alternative, and instances of the old name were replaced by the newspaper's new name. Since the changes, Liberty and Prosperity has been primarily responsible for delivering the press releases of Congress member Tyrsis. The Congressional press releases have led to a slight expansion of the newspaper's reader base.

Tyrsis launched his Christmas Congressional Campaign for Louisiana under the Liberty and Prosperity, and was re-elected for a second term in Congress. This resulted in the continuation of the Congressional press releases.

On January 15, 2009, Liberty and Prosperity resumed its publication of editorials, similar in style to, but lengthier than the articles of the Capitalist Alternative.
