I've often mused on RF how I don't feel as if I fit in with any one political platform. So here's a very very brief rundown about some of my views and what I think are important.

- I am a bisexual woman who is also polyamorous. I am very far outside of the cultural norm of "one-man-one-woman" marriage model, but I do not wish to be discriminated from housing, employment, etc, and wish for the same rights as everybody else who fits into that model.

- I am also a business owner who makes money and has been creating employment opportunities for others. I like seeing the business grow and seeing how many more people my for-profit business can offer for people. I do not wish to be limited in this growth. If I can offer a fair price, fair wages, and can deliver above and beyond, I would like to bring that kind of impact on people in our community as much as I can.

- I have been in weapons training of various sorts, and I prefer having the freedom to be able to be trained in defending myself if need be.

- I homeschool my daughter and have sent our sons to public school. As much as I see benefits in both, my preference is freedom to access educational services as well as freedom to assembly for education, apprenticeships, and internships for my children. I have a dim view in the standards expected that children should just be able to read and follow orders first. I am of the view in the importance of the scientific method, inquiry, gathering data, and peer review...in the importance of the arts, of creative exploration, of compositional skills, and of effective expression of such perspectives.

- I am a feminist who believes in a woman's inalienable right to make decisions on the health and state of her uterus, of deciding her own sexual autonomy and who is allowed into her body and when she allows it, and of being given the same respect when she speaks her mind.

- I believe in a secular nation that creates it's legislations, executive orders and law enforcement, and it's justice system based on humanist ethics and morals. Ones not based on superstition, or on traditions simply for traditions' sake, but on objective study in earth and social sciences that gives the best evidence for what is good for a free-speaking society to last indefinitely (at least until the planet is ended from a cosmic alien occurrence and not from our own idiotic egoistic desires).

Anybody want me to register with their party?

I'll take bribes too.

Why you should become a Libertarian:
- If you become one, I guarantee that you will be the hottest, youngest & smartest babe at party meetings. (You might be the only one.)
- Your vote will never matter, since no Libertarian will win an election. So you won't be embarrassed by their misbehavior in office.
- We're pro-choice on everything.
- Free pocket protector!

No. I'm too elitist. And also... one of a kind. And then there's the fact that you're a ninja, and we don't want yer kind. Nor do we want your artsy fartsy minimal Japanese aesthetics ruining our election HQ.
But I do accept donations, mostly material goods like decent pipe tobacco, fine ale, or just plain Aztec gold.

Heather, I'm thinking the Radical Left-Wing Forlorn Rejectionist Party is for you. The RLWFRP (pronounced: "Beer") is the political arm of the Chicken Egg Sexing religion. Its noble platform basically consists in rejecting all current political parties and movements while getting drunk and professing undying love for your drinking buddies.

Political parties are simply just tools used by intelligent men and women. They bring together large groups of people to achieve their own personal objectives in a democratic environment. Which is good when their objectives are also yours. Its also a great thing for those who run it because they for the most part do what they want. Although, occasionally you get in trouble and have to apologize if you get caught doing something people don't want you to do. Although most of the time you get away with everything. Just look at Adolf Hitler.

In our culture your beliefs seem to be cut in half by the two power parties. Its important to use power parties because its a real easy way to find people who vote but don't really question why. The more sheep the better for your cause. Now, you can either cut out half of yourself and become half of who you are. Or realize that each issue will probably be different for you. Befriend both groups and use their sheep when you need them.

I dunno....Bacon feels more Republican. Chocolate feels more Democrat.

You sure Libertarians have these exclusively along with pocket protectors?
Nothing about us is exclusive.
You'll find bits & pieces of our agenda in many other parties.
As we say, we're to the right of Reagan & to the left of Kennedy.

I would try to convert you to my party, but I have none. My views are taken from liberalism, green, socialist, and anarchist. I fit nowhere, I'm unique.
