I would answer: "their principles". I don't believe any other party had such defined positions on so many issues when it started. Their constitutionally aligned principles would make it very hard for the LP to become corrupted once in office (at least very fast).
I think one of their most corruption-preventing principles is the fully-informed jury. Were this to become more widely known and accepted, gov corruption would become MUCH rarer. -Mark _____ Hey guys, I'm not new to this board, I just haven't posted that much, but I have a question. I do consider myself a libertarian but I am also finding myself starting to embrace more extreme anarchist ideas. This sudden shift is because I not only distrust the 2 major parties, but now the smaller ones too. Lets say the LP succeeds in spreading the principle of strictly limited government and becomes a big player in the political world and gets a majority in the House, or Senate, or even wins the Executive branch, maybe all of them. How do we know the LP will not become corrupted just like the Dems and Reps? I am starting to think that if this country has any hope to turn around is to elect people for one term only that are not part of any political party. _____ [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ForumWebSiteAt http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Libertarian Yahoo!
