1171: Michael Boldin – Both Political Parties are Evil

The two major political parties are so filled to the brim with anti-constitution and ant-liberty sociopaths, that I don’t believe there is such a thing as a 'lesser of two evils.' They’re both thoroughly evil. —Michael Boldin (Tenth Amendment Center)Download Print Quality (3840×2010) 4.41MB  |  Normal Quality (1920×1005) 242KB

1109: David Nolan – LP Founder on the Libertarian Party

We have unfortunately created a little class of mini bureaucrats who are more concerned with keeping their jobs and perpetuating the institution as an institution and raising money than they are with spreading the message. When we started out our goal was to spread the word, it was sort of evangelical, to spread the word of liberty out to the world at large and we had people like Murray Rothbard and John Hospers and many other distinguished thinkers of that era involved in the party. Now we’re down to the level of people who are I think for the most part well intended, but when compared to those men are several orders down the intellectual scale and they are absorbed with minutia they are concerned with budgets, they are afraid to say anything that might scare people, that might keep people from voting for us. So it’s become a very timid organization in the past 6 or 8 years. —David NolanDownload Print Quality (5426×7680) 411KB  |  Normal Quality (2713×3840) 199KB
