Well, I too had problems with raw liver initially, particularly with pig
and ox liver, though I grew to like them after a year or so, due to the
usual taste-change . My own idea was to just add a little raw garlic or
raw onion to them. I also tried samphire, which is a seaweed-like plant,
which was quite a success- almost any herb will do, really. I found that if
I overdid the seasoning too much, though, that I ended up with a mild
stomach-ache.
Liver tastes quite different, depending on which animal you get it from. I
found that wild venison liver, and especially wild boar liver, was
amazing in taste, and neither needed any seasoning. I presume you can get
wild venison innards quite easily in the States, given the amount of hunting
there.
Incidentally, I wouldn't recommend either raw chicken liver or duck liver.
Most people seem to consider them a bit sharp in taste.
It doesn't matter, of course, if it turns out that you don't like any raw
liver. There are plenty of other innards to choose from, instead. I
personally usually prefer the taste of kidney, bone-marrow and tongue.
