Column Name: Freedom
Perspective: Libertarian
Our country is headed down a path to fascism. I do extensive digging in this battle for information and present an objective view that points out key issues that affect our personal freedoms. My writings are meant to inform and try to open the minds of people so eager to surrender freedom for security.
A Plebian
Column Name: Uncommon Sense
Perspective: Libertarian
This is my first attempt at writing so bear with me. Watching the spectacle that is the modern American primary process a recurring trend boldly announces itself like a stinging slap in the face. The majority of Americans do want change. Its too bad that the change they so desperately want is ,in reality, just old disproven ideas dressed up in fancy new clothes.
a Theologian
Column Name: On Faith and Politics
Perspective: Libertarian
This is an attempt to highlight aspects of our political landscape from the perspective of a Christian world view. It is aimed at those who profess Christ, but may be interesting for those who don't. At the very least it should provide clarity to those who share common political ground but worship different (G)gods. It is also an attempt to challenge those who profess Christ, but practice politics in a way contrary to his teaching.
A.H. Dowden
Column Name: Tiny Grenades of Truth
Perspective: Libertarian
Seeing through the fog of partisan aspersion and exposing the vast absurdity that is post-modern American politics. This column will range wide and wax clever. From politics to religion and pop culture to geopolitical posturing and high statecraft and back again.
A.J. Antimony
Column Name: Imagine
Perspective: Libertarian
A logical collection of observations that directly challenge the status quo, the Combine, and occasionally the Borg.

Adam Rink
Column Name: Adam's Rant
Perspective: Libertarian

Adeeb Shabazz
Column Name: Liberty and the Black American
Perspective: Libertarian
As with any people who have been singled out as victims of the racism of fascist state agendas, Black people in America tend to vote along socialist lines, usually choosing left-leaning candidates from the Democratic Party in hopes of finding relief from the effects of state-sponsored racism. However, a new thought is sweeping Black America, bringing with it a new appreciation for Liberty. Many Black people are rapidly learning that replacing fascist-oriented agendas with socialist-oriented agendas in government simply places a new face on the oppressor. Black people in the 21st Century are moving with new speed toward supporting small government and libertarian ideals, with great concern for ending the draconian War On Drugs, taking more personal and community control of the education of our youth, and re-establishing the freedom for any American to start and operate a business with the least amount of government impedence. Liberty and the Black American is to serve as a voice for the liberty-minded Black American.
Al
Column Name: In Pursuit Of Liberty
Perspective: Libertarian
I will comment on current news political with a libertarian point of view. I have written the same column under the name listed above in one of the local newspapers where I reside. I also have an internet radio talk show titled under the same name on www.smagico.com in both English and Spanish.
Alex Strekal
Column Name: The Individualist Journal
Perspective: Libertarian
A conduit of libertarian thought from a market anarchist, agorist perspective.
Alex Wallenwein
Column Name: The Left/Right Knockout
Perspective: Conservative
Taking sides in the political arena is like choosing between a boxer's left jab or right cross. It's pointless. You get your senses knocked out of you, either way. Yet, the "middle ground" is inhabited by spineless cowards. So, what do you do? Cover up and aim for your opponent's head!
Alexander Edward

Perspective: Libertarian
Social/Political Commentary.
Alexander Jefferson
Column Name: American Voice

an existentialist
Column Name: Life
Perspective: Libertarian
Sadly, we all share this one thing called "life" and yet nobody seems to know what it is for or what to do with it. So I'm here to use my personal experiences (however few or unimportant they may or may not be) and put my two cents in. Take it or leave it, but with either one you choose, please be respectful.

Perspective: Statist
Examines the goverment, the people and the role between the two.
Anthony Cinelli
Column Name: The Proservative
Perspective: Conservative
Putting the "Pro" back into Service
Barbeaux
Column Name: Cracks in the Bell
Perspective: Conservative Libertarian
Cracks in the Bell is merely that. A place for ideas otherwise thought to be broken. A Crack in the Bell is a symbol. It is the shattering ring of ideas and it is meant to be judged but not shunned. Cracks in the Bell may be imperfect, and some may be forgettable, but they are a crack, nonetheless.
Barry Bright
Column Name: Stormship Trooper
Perspective: Libertarian
Liberty oriented.
Barry Dinthot
Column Name: Buried in Thought
Perspective: Libertarian
Ever since Ron Paul emerged on the scene in the presidential debates May, he has inspired me to think and rethink my beliefs as well as about daily things I take for granted. I thank Nolan Chart for providing a forum where I can express these thoughts in writing and with luck get some feedback.
BattleStations
Column Name: War on Collectivism
Perspective: Libertarian
Federal government has crept into every aspect of our lives and continues to expand its stranglehold on freedom. In order to reverse this trend, it is necessary for libertarian minded folks to gather their arms (ideas) and infiltrate government. I hope this column will contribute positively to the war effort with information and inspiration.
Bear Gunderson

This column is focused on the promotion of freedom, creativity, individual expression, and above all the truth through the acquisition and analysis of facts.

BJSchaefer
Column Name: Nothing Is New
Perspective: Libertarian
Nothing is New is a current events column written from the libertarian perspective. Staying informed, right along with being properly educated, is essential in democracy or republics. Hardly anything that's done today is "new", it only seems that way because we didn't know it before.
Blue Dawn
Column Name: Revolution
Perspective: Libertarian

Brannon Parker
Column Name: Local Issues and Global Concerns
Perspective: Libertarian
I frequently write about current events and historical facts that relate to the modern era.
Brooklyn
Column Name: The Hard Truth
Perspective: Libertarian
I believe the United States is slowly becoming a more contemporary version of that written about in books such as 1984, Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451 and this needs to be stopped. My column seeks to present an unvarnished, unabashed viewpoint on various issues. If it is politically incorrect, that is because the thought of considering political correctness never crossed my mind. If it is abrasive, that is because the truth is often harsh. I call it as I see it.
Brutus
Column Name: Death to Caesar
Perspective: Libertarian
Removing the veil of mysticism that shrouds the State; debunking it's claims of necessity, beneficence, and legitimacy; revealing the truth that the Emperor has no clothes.
Bucky
Column Name: Is There Anybody Out There??
Perspective: Libertarian
I am amazed at how people are decieved every day; by the media, the government, their employers, other businesses, etc. I will be taking a look to see if there is still intelligent life on planet earth, or has everyone become absorbed into a pop culture coma??

Carl Buschmann
Column Name: In Search of Freedom
Perspective: Libertarian
This column will be used to voice my opinion on many subjects concerning we citizens and the effects of current politics of government on our diminishing freedoms and what will have to be done for we the people of The United States of America to reverse this direction and become truly free. My fervent hope is that maybe, just maybe, this contribution may help add to the knowledge that awakening citizens in this country will need to change the direction this country is going in. I do not wish to see this country become part of a one world order with slavery and injustice to all.
Carter Braxton
Column Name: Can YOU Save America?
Perspective: Libertarian
ReaD / BetweeN / ThE / LineS
Carter Brown
Column Name: Concerned Canadian
Perspective: Libertarian
Written by a canadian who looks at issues from the outside. It isn't about policies that are left or right, or up or down. This column is about good policies that make sense to me, and some policies. This column is from outside the US, and reflects how american policies effect outsiders. I believe wholeheartedly that ideas do not listen to national borders.
Chad_Underdonk
Column Name: Rage against the Machine
Perspective: Libertarian
Spreading the ideas of liberty, one mind at a time.
Charles Platt
Column Name: Reality Check
Perspective: Libertarian
Libertarians tend to be idealists. This is an admirable trait yet can be self defeating in the short term. I believe that in order to achieve any of our goals, we have to be realistic about the skepticism and inertia of the general public. It took me years to let go of the political ideas that I grew up with. Others, likewise, may require time to accept the libertarian point of view. Patience is essential. An incremental approach is the only one that I believe is practical.
Chase Lepard
Column Name: Proud Spambot
Perspective: Libertarian

Christopher Espinal
Column Name: Stories At The Margin
Perspective: Conservative
The theme of my column is economics and politics. I will use concepts from economics to discuss issues within the political realm. I also intend to discuss everyday life with an "economic spin." Given these descriptions, one may believe that my ideas are derived from conservative principles. However, I personally believe that economics takes no real political position. When one uses the ideas and concepts behind economics, they must stick to it's core principles rather than selectively choose them to make political points. In other words, I'm no Paul Krugman. All in all, I normally describe myself as centrist since I agree with Liberals and Conservatives on different issues. Sometimes I align myself with Libertarians and other times with statists. I intend to bring these characteristics into my column.
Christopher Waltz
Column Name: A Letter to Sean Hannity
Perspective: Libertarian
I only caught about fifteen minutes of Sean Hannity's radio show, on 1/31/08, but that fifteen minutes really made a huge impression on me. In these fifteen minutes, Sean was attempting to make a point by stating that John McCain was 'liberal,' to which, I agree with Sean, completely. He then goes on to make an arguement that if it was down to a two-man race (Romney and McCain), on the Republican side, he could see a swing, by the voters, to the more conservative Mitt Romney. Again, I agree with Sean Hannity. But where Sean, Rush, Fox News, other MSM and pundits have made a major mistake is that they continued to dismiss, discredit and laugh at Ron Paul. They ignored and marginalized a true, patriotic, conservative candidate. A candidate that stood by Ronald Reagan, in 1976, when the rest of the Republican field backed a more 'liberal' candidate. (Sound familiar?) Ron Paul, a candidate that upholds the same conservative principles that Reagan pushed to the fore-front of the conservative movement. You, Sean, laughed at Ron Paul and his supporters and now you want Dr. Paul (and Mike Huckabee) to drop out so that "true" conservatives would be forced to go out and vote for Mitt Romney? It is far too late for that, Mr. Hannity. I, along with many other Ron Paul supporters, will go out and vote for Ron Paul, in the Primaries. I, along with many other Ron Paul supporters, will vote for him in the General Election, regardless if Ron Paul's on the ballot or not. Because I, along with many other disgruntled voters, am sick of voting for the "lesser of two evils." We, THE PEOPLE, are noticing the way you, Fox News, and the rest of the MSM use your power of manipulation and propoganda to promote, or, in the case of Dr. Ron Paul, dismiss and limit the coverage of support for our candidate. http://www.charlotteconservative.com/index.php/2008/01/hannity-bans-ron-paul/ How is that free speech, Sean? We will be casting our votes for Ron Paul as a protest vote to your manipulations. A vote against the way the media neglects the truth and reports the facts the way they see it; not the way it truely appears. And if that means we, the Ron Paul supporters, hand the Republican nomination to John McCain, so be it. If that means a Democrat becomes the President, so be it. Because it will NOT be said that a truely conservative, freedom-loving, anti-big government, non-intervention group of people did not stand up to the establishment,...to the strains of big government and to the slow erosion of our civil liberties. If you wanted our votes, Sean (as well as Romney or McCain), you should not have laughed at the core of individuals that still want to uphold the Constitution and promote the ideals of Reaganism. You should have given Ron Paul a chance...a "Fair and Balanced" chance. You have no one to blame but yourself!
Chuck Angier
Column Name: The Truth Hurts
Perspective: Libertarian
In depth analysis of the issues of the day prepared by an average grandpa who regrets that his grandchildren won't have an opportunity to grow up in the peace, prosperity and security that he enjoyed.

Perspective: Libertarian
Observations on culture and politics from The Republic of Dave.
David Dickinson
Column Name: Frontier of Awareness
Perspective: Libertarian
An editorial on the misdirection of our country and some reasons to support Ron Paul and restore our original American values. Regardless of the outcome of this coming election, the message must continue and the level of awareness across the country and the world must be raised if we are to be truly free. We can no longer be kept in the dark and dumbed down. We must seek information. We must not be tolerant of any group's efforts to control our way of life.

Dean Santoro
Column Name: Global View Local Focus
Perspective: Libertarian
As we move closer to a global social and business society, preserving national sovereignty is an important goal each country on Earth should strive to maintain. Politicians and lawmakers face uncharted territory and unknown challenges ahead. Americans must be prudent in their selection of government representatives to lead this charge.
Dean Weldon
Column Name: Rude Awakenings
Perspective: Liberal Libertarian
"Rude Awakenings" is a collection of editorials on a range of subjects dear to me. There are musings on social issues, ideas for energy self-sufficiency, political thoughts, and recent revelations.
Dee Ann Patterson
Column Name: Long live the Constitution of the United States
Perspective: Libertarian
This column is about conserving and preserving liberty in the United States of America through the expectation that our elected leaders uphold their Oathes of Office to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.
Del Sharp
Column Name: Constitutional Conservative
Perspective: Libertarian
Although Nolan Charts identifies me as a top-of-the-point, Libertarian, I consider myself a constitutional conservative and my columns are written from that perspective. In my view, the founding fathers were inspired men and that is why our founding document has survived 200+ years of whittling by leftists. For me, the Nolan Chart, even with it's shortcomings, serves a useful purpose in establishing a starting point for discussion.
Derek Walter
Column Name: The Pursuit
Perspective: Conservative Libertarian
Thoughtful and witty commentary on a variety of topics. My columns tackle politics, culture, current events, religion, education, and technology.
Dietwald Claus
Column Name: White Crow Perspectives
Perspective: Libertarian
Crowing about what's bugging me. Hoping it inspires others to take up the caw.
DigitalBob
Column Name: Center of the Earth
Perspective: Libertarian
Before Gallileo, theologians thought that the Earth was the center of the universe. Rome thought it was the center of civilization. In his 1864 classic Journey to the Center of the Earth, Jules Verne wrote an aventure of a group of explorers, who found the lost city of Atlantis at the bottom of a volcano . We have those among us those who believe the Earth is flat or hollow or that Venus stopped the Earth because of its strange eliptical orbit a few thousand years ago. Some sailors were afraid to venture too close to the horizon, for fear of falling off the Earth. They only knew what they could see. And that will be my limitation too. I find the politics of the extremes very annoying, as I hope you will, after reading this column.
Doug Eberhardt
Column Name: You Can Make A Difference
Perspective: Libertarian
This column is meant to enlighten Christian Americans to what is really going on in America when it comes to our government, politics, education, investments, and economics, because they are not hearing the truth via the MSM (Main Stream Media). Many different subjects, yet they are all related when it comes to making a decision on whom to vote for. There is much misinformation being spouted by the Left and the Right and it's not easy for a Christian to make a decision. This not to say that these issues don't address non-Christians, but there is a need to expose the hypocrisy of some who call themselves Christian yet don't use Biblical understanding to support their views. Together, we can make a difference in changing America!
DougPD
Column Name: Because Truth Matters
Perspective: Libertarian
"To sit back hoping that someday, some way, someone will make things right is to go on feeding the crocodile, hoping he will eat you last - but eat you he will." Ronald Reagan "The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers." Thomas Jefferson
Duane E. Maddy
Column Name: Maddy On Politics
Perspective: Libertarian
My columns will be a factual, yet satirical look at the political world. I personally have no faith in Washington. Anyone who's ever been to the Department of Motor Vehicles will agree, there's a little bit of room for improvement in government.
E.A. Blayre III
Column Name: The Revolution will not be Televised
Perspective: Libertarian
Views and thoughts on the Ron Paul Revolution from the author of the banned book "America Deceived".
Earl Todd Singleton
Column Name: Riding the Tempest
Perspective: Libertarian
Commentary from a non-academic, unindoctrinated perspective.
Edmund Mills
Column Name: Free Thought
Perspective: Libertarian
An essay on Freedom.
Edward Townes
Column Name: Fighting the State
Perspective: Libertarian
My political views are classic liberal and I read the Austrian School of economics. I believe that anarcho-capitalism is the purest form of free society, and that the necessity of the State is a myth perpetuated by the minority who have a vested interest in its existence.
EJ Moosa
Column Name: The Naked Truth
Perspective: Libertarian
My column is to be on current topics, primarily political in nature. Current events, politics and trends are of interest.
Ejner Fulsang
Column Name: It's Not a Perfect World
Perspective: Centrist
The American Constitution is a marvel of political engineering, more a work of art than a prescription for drafting laws. And yet perfect as it was in its day, it is now in need of shoring up to allow it to cope with the challenges of today. Clever men designed it, and today clever men abuse it. This column will not advocate trashing the Constitution and starting over, but amending it here and there as was originally provided for under Article Five.
Emerson Garland
Column Name: EZ Garland
Perspective: Libertarian
Currently I reside in Norfolk, VA. Enrolled at Old Dominion University, I intend to double major in Political Science and Economics. I hope to further my education and study Russian language at Moscow University. If all goes as planned I intend to apply to William and Mary and receive a Law degree. I will probably write mostly Ron Paul related articles and issues concerning foreign policy, but that is now and there's no telling where I might branch off to. Some articles might consist of college papers and some might be the result of a random persuasion to write. I hope they will be insightful and pleasurable but I cannot promise that my articles will be "Fair and Balanced". At least I'm not the only one!
Eschol Sellers
Column Name: Clean-slate country

Future Writer - Heather Saarela
Column Name: Getting Back Our Country
Perspective: Libertarian
This column will cover topics regarding the US political process and current candidates running for the House, Senate and Presidency. I plan on researching similar candidates to Ron Paul and would like to encourage other people to consider running as well if they are interested in changing our current system. I would also like to encourage the general public to get involved and knowledgeable about what is actually going on in the US and how they can help get our country back. I have had quite enough of main stream media thank you.

Gary Trieste

Views from a Libertarian pundit.
Gary Wood
Column Name: Hear the Thunder
Perspective: Conservative Libertarian
Hear the Thunder is a column dedicated to views from a Constitutional perspective. The thunder is often that grassroots sound we hear surrounding key areas impacting our daily lives. It is not necessarily the thunder from my words but the thunder from people like you and me who are fighting for their causes and clinging to the remains of an unprecedented experiment. The experiment was first brought to life over 220 years ago by 55 enlightened men and the results of their thunder are truly inspirational. Their experiment, the Federalist Republic, must be revived and the words read in this column will be but a humble attempt to shine the light on our world from a U.S. Constitutional perspective.
George Dance
Column Name: Ron Paul and his rEVOLution
Perspective: Libertarian
Begun in Jan. 2008 under the original title of "The Ron Paul Reports," to debunk misinformation regarding the notorious Ron Paul newsletters of the early 1990's, this column has widened its focus to do the same regarding Paul's 2008 campaign and the wider rEVOLution that is EVOLving around it.

Hank Pyro
Column Name: Reflections on the Bad Science Behind Scientific P
Perspective: Libertarian
This column originally appeared in http://www.publishersgoldmine.com/2007/12/19/if-i-get-a-chimpanzee-and-a-dartboard/ It is a critique of the amazingly inaccurate opinion polls concerning the 2004 Democratic Presidential Primaries in which John Kerry was rarely ranked higher than fourth. [I do hope the graphs survive the clip and paste.]
Harry P
Column Name: Reason Absolute
Perspective: Libertarian
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men human beings are created equal under the law. What a difference a few words make! The goal to make men equal in any aspect other than equality under the law can only be accomplished by the use of force against others. Words are our weapons, guns are our defense!

Hickory Hendrickson
Column Name: Connect the Dots
Perspective: Libertarian
Today's main-stream media, often only report part of the story. This column, will explore the rest of the story, just like Paul Harvey, but will also attempt to put the story in perspective according to other current events and news from the past. Lately, I do a lot of witting for The Republic of Lakotah. They need everything they can get, so you will see them in my column often.
Hodja
Column Name:
Perspective: Libertarian
Jim Morrison once told us "You're all a bunch of f#cking slaves." He was right: WE are all a bunch of slaves ...primarily because of our persistent efforts to persuade ourselves that we are "free" in utter defiance of the overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Our lack of freedom is the inevitable consequence of our lust for power ...a lust which is all too frequently the product of our belief that we can regain our freedom by securing power over others. Like Aesop's proverbial dog ...there is no greater threat to our own liberty than our own jealousy for the liberties and property of others and our determination to have power over them. My hope is to write articles exploring this insidious tendency within each of us in the hope that we might have a better chance of learning to avoid it. James Hines

Ivan from Oregon
Column Name: The American Way
Perspective: Libertarian
During the '90's I published a column in a conservative weekly in the East Bay (San Francisco) titled "The American Way". The theme of most of my articles was geared to making a case against "collectivism" and how it destroys our freedom. I believe I can bring a coherent point of wiew to many of the problems we face today. I have a small sample of my writing in a couple of posts as "Ivan from Oregon"

J.T. (A man standing in the gap) Furnish
Column Name: A Time to Preach and a Time to Fight
Perspective: Libertarian
A time to preach and a time to fight is a column dedicated to truth above all else. It is my belief that freedom is not free, and many in America are in bondage today. They are in bondage to lies. It is time to be free again. This column will analyze politics and religion here in America. It is time that we start "standing in the gap" and take back our country. This column will be used to equip you to stand in the gap and live up to what you were called to do.

This column is primarily political in nature with a libertarian conservative perspective.

This makes my perspective the antithesis of standard talk radio programming.
Jake Morphonios
Column Name: * The Liberty Tree *
Perspective: Conservative Libertarian
In the period leading up to the American Revolution, colonists gathered under a great elm tree in Boston to rally together against the tyranny of their mother country. After the passage of the infamous Stamp Act, the Sons of Liberty hung the effigies of two tax collectors from the tree. From that day on the elm was known as the Liberty Tree and served as a meeting place for protests against tyrannical government. This column serves as a symbolic Liberty Tree and calls upon today's Sons of Liberty to rise up as our firebrand progenitors and resist all those who dare to tread on liberty, justice and the rights bestowed upon all men by almighty God.

Perspective: Libertarian
This column is based on the fact that life IS a risk. If every one of your thoughts and actions were dictated by someone else, you might just as well be replaced by a robot. Why live at all under those conditions? The more decisions you make for yourself, the more sense it makes for you to be alive. Whether your life is a series of tests laid out for you from God, or whether your life is just the outcome of random chance, YOU need to be in charge of it for it to have full meaning. You can abdicate your right to control your own life, but don’t abdicate that right for the rest of us. To have meaning in your life, you need to be able to make you own decisions; to make your own mistakes; to decide your own risks. This column defends your right to take risks. Therefore, this column defends your life.

Column Name: The Revolution has already Begun
Perspective: Libertarian
As a Ron Paul supporter and someone who wants to return government to the constitutional limits I am encouraged by the support of the message of freedom. Americans want to be free. Over the last few months, I\'ve had conversations and read emails from strong supporters of Obama and John McCain. Deep down inside, I\'ve felt it, they know something is wrong. Don\'t get me wrong, they support their republicrat choice and if I were like them I would too. Its tough to decide which candidate will make the right decisions on what to do with your money, how to raise your kids and when to take away your privacy. Every American knows that there has to be a better way. Because of Ron Paul a revolution has started to return to that better way. A way William Wallace best described in one word, FREEDOM. To continue this march towards our freedom we must choose a successor to Ron Paul that will get enough support to get into the debates and be strong enough to win them. This candidate must foremost be unwavering in the message of freedom and liberty to all Americans. But we can\'t just pick anyone. We need to be strategic. First Step- Picking a party Two parties share the message of liberty and limited government, the Libertarian Party and the Constitutional Party. While I agree with a good portion of the Constitutional\'s parties platform, I believe the platform alienates voters that aren\'t Christians and has no realistic chance of making a serious national impact, let alone a revolution. So, that leaves the very sound Libertarian Party platform. Second Step- Picking a candidate Many think that the big household name is the way to go. But, just because a person is well known doesn\'t mean he is well liked, hence Bob Barr. Also, the Libertarian Party is getting way more attention than ever before as over a million Ron Paul voters look for a candidate that meets there views. Lets immediately scratch Mike Gravel\'s name of the list of potential candidates as he is a big government socialist just using the Libertarian Party for ballot access. My next point is key and I know many won\'t agree because I am playing identity politics, but I believe we should choose a woman. Think about it, once Hillary loses, which she will, where do you think those votes go? Close to half of Hillary\'s supporters say they won\'t vote for Obama and I can\'t see many Hillary supporters voting for McCain, who Hillary said would just be a third term for George Bush. Many Hillary supporters picked her as their candidate because of Identity politics. We know this because they could have just as easily supported Obama who is running a campaign identical on all the issues. So between Ron Paul supporters, Hillary\'s rejects and the Libertarian Party itself there is a nice base of support to spread the message of freedom to the half of the nation that stopped voting because they were disenfranchised by our war starting, socialism-lite style government. And Then There Were Two. Christine Smith and Mary Ruwart are the only candidates that fit this strategic plan for a Revolution. I looked into each of these candidates extensively and in Mary Ruwart I found an exploitable weakness like the death star but much easier to attack. Mary Ruwart is against the outlawing of Child Pornography. In her words: "Children who willingly participate in sexual acts have the right to make that decision as well, even if it’s distasteful to us personally. Some children will make for choice is just as some adults do in smoking and drinking to excess; this is part of life. What we outlaw child pornography, if the prices paid for child performers rise, increasing the incentives for parents to use children against their will." This would never fly with me or the American public. She is not for Liberty, she is for Anarchy. She is a self-proclaimed Anarchist. So that leaves us with Christine Smith, who I am covering last but she is definitely not the least. I have decided that I believe she is the absolute best choice to serve as the successor to Ron Paul in leading this revolution into the White House. Most Ron Paul supporters haven\'t yet decided on whom to support. They are waiting for something. There is no more time to wait. We need to be proactive. Christine Smith is a candidate that represents our ideals and I believe has the best chance to actually win this election. Is this a true Revolution? Do you really believe it is? Then we can take the White House this year. We just need to be smart, enthusiastic, hard workers at spreading the message of freedom. The smartest choice for us to do that with is Christine Smith for President.
I urge everyone reading this to check out her site (http://libertarianforpresident.com), watch some of the videos, read her points. She needs the help of the grassroots. We now have only 2 weeks to show the Libertarian Party who the Revolution wants as their nominee.

Column Name: Practical Idealist Revival
Perspective: Centrist Liberal
First use of the term 'practical idealism' in presidential politics was by this author in 1984, as the name of a platform during an independent run for the White House. More recently, Al Gore and Condoleeza Rice have tried to name their views 'practical idealism,' but those attempts did not resonate nor stick. The author likens that to New Coke. In this column, the author will remember and extend the politics of practical idealism -- developed natively in Generation X, by a teenager, and reminding us of what politics look like when they are not bought-and-paid-for. "Enough is enough of New Coke. I'll give you classic practical idealism, when I can squeeze out a new column."

Larry Ward
Column Name: Government in Exile
Perspective: Libertarian
We need to form a new union and act as a government in exile to provide for our mutual defense in the coming storm and to launch projects that produce real weath and opportunity to sustain us as the economy collapses. Our government in exile needs offers, selected by some kind of plebesite. The internet allows us all to participate in the making of our laws and policies. We need a web facility to host thoughtful and orderly deliberation and debate and empower citizens of our cyber space government in exile to decide on our laws and policies after the debate. This virtual legislature needs also to select leaders. Kudos to Nolan Chart. At this time, it serves rather well as a free press. I hope it will grow in its policies and facilities as our government in exile grows in unity and strength. Our government in exile needs a president to preside over and coordinate the many actions of our government in exile. It needs other officers as well. Among those other officers it needs an attorney general to file Pro Se (that is lawyer free) suits in Federal Court. It needs creative executive power for actions that are approved by the membership- real actions, not just cheer leading pep rallies. Our government in exile is the minority party at present. But as the establishment regime collapses under the weight of its own absurdity, the people will turn to our sane model of government and restore us to power to restore liberty and the Constitution to the seat of government in American government, life and law.

Column Name: The Logical Premise to the Normal Extension
Perspective: Statist
I am, by nature, someone who dislikes both hyperbole and insipid modesty. There are a myriad of problems with this country, and to suggest or imply one particular approach will magically make things "better" is to either imply that the average American is very naive or is too busy in his or her conspicious consumption (or starving on the street) to pay attention to the Wizard behind the curtain. I will consider the positions of candiates, based only off of what I find on their official sites,and comment upon them. My race, sex, religous affiliation, personal beliefs, and party of choice do not really matter. I am a statist. Statism is the belief that the only form of government that makes sense is one that involves significant centralized government intervention in personal, social and/or economic matters. I happen to believe in that. I believe in it for a number of reasons, most importantly because people are not smart. I do not belive in morality, I do not belive in the conventional wisdom, and I most certainly do not belive in the idea that the common man is somehow our touch stone. I am an eliteist in the manner after that of William Henry III.

Teddy Roosevelt once said, "To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." I also believe that extends to our Congress and the inner workings of the United States government. If people do not speak out against what they see is wrong, they are just as bad as those who perpetrate it. Elected officials work for you and not the other way around.

Believing that we actually do live in a universe that can be examined by reason and reveals consistent truths, we will search for a unified perspective, a world view, that integrates and makes sense of significant issues in any area of discourse. Realizing also that each of us is finite and limited in our grasp of reality, we intend to mediate views that conflict by encouraging dialogue among viewpoints. However, although we believe the truth will not contradict reason, we submit that truth may at times transcend our reason, and is not restricted to mere naturalism.

Since I am adamantly anti-globalist, my immediate contributions will be intended to garner support for Ron Paul--it is easy to understand that my current endeavor of priority is to promote Dr. Ron Paul, Republican candidate for President in 2008. I find that I also stand in agreement with what he has said, written and promulgated to date about all other issues. Since I am also adamantly Christian, my contributions will sometimes contain a Biblical perspective to personal, national and world issues as merited. Since I am also adamantly opposed to genetic engineering, cloning and the new field of bio-technology's current trespass into realms where man ought not to trespass, I will on occasion express my views on these matters. Basic and principle matters of economics and how they can deliver prosperity or poverty, depending on who controls them and how they exercise this control, has been an ongoing concern and interest of mine for over three decades now...
