I am a card-carrying member of the Libertarian party with a B.S. in Political Science from Eastern Michigan University.

Experience in the area

Card-carrying member of the Libertarian Party for over 10 years. Well read in Libertarian literature as well as "classic liberalism" (Jefferson, Bastiat, etc.).

Organizations

Libertarian Party. American Political Science Association

Publications

Local newspapers as editorials.

Education/Credentials

B.S. - Political Science EMU ("BS" in political science..Kinda' ironic! *bg*)

Awards and Honors

What do you like about this subject?

I enjoy politics in general, but I really like discussing the legitimacy of Libertarian politics in particular.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I want to be well-versed and understand, three-dimensionally, all relevant political issues.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

The Libertarian Party has a platform for any issue the others parties do (in some cases, a plank for issues the others don't). We're not just about legalizing drugs!;-)

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

Virtually every subject the Libertarians stand for is controversial and provocative...The key is to free your mind of the brainwashing the other poll-driven parties have laid on us.

Thanks for trusting me with your question, Adnan.  Wow, I have not read “The End of History” in about 20 years; I clearly have to revisit it as it’s clearly still required reading!    I just want to make
