3.7 Self-Determination

3.7 Self-Determination

Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of individual liberty, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to agree to such new governance as to them shall seem most likely to protect their liberty.

Can anyone say "Declaration of Independence"? I love it. This is exactly the encapsulation of clarity of thought that our party should be known for. Do the other parties hold up such sentiments as something upon which to base an entire government? no. Why? Because they are, in fact, counter to the cause of liberty.

Let me not mince words here. The Democratic party is the party of modern slavery. They embrace stealing from one person to support another. The Republican party is the party of false conservatism. They talk a good game, but fail to deliver when given the opportunity. Only the Libertarian party is the party of principle. We put our ideals on display, and then live them. We support them, promote them and expect nothing less from everyone else.

It hasn't always been this way. My grandfather was not a socialist, but he was a Democrat. Somewhere along the line his party abandoned him. When I first joined the Republican, under Ronald Reagan, she wasn't perfect (no party is) but she practiced what he preached as best she could. Over the years it has run off an abandoned me. I was nearly a man without a party until I decided that I had it within me to do something about it.

This is my goal, to alter the government. It is well past time to return the power of the government to its best purpose, removing force and fraud from human relationships. All else is window dressing, expensive window dressing at that. All else will result not only in unwise spending of treasure as the government chases an unreachable goal, but will also cost in the infrignment or even wholesale abrogation of rights. This cannot be tolerated. Neither party will stand up for the common man, and so now we must stand up for ourselves.
