A libertarian presidential candidate isn't going to win anyway, so he can afford to say that all taxation is theft, and it isn't the job of a libertarian presidential candidate to cook up new ways to commit theft.

Hangover
I feel that someone's turning my head with a spanner.
Nausea and giddiness play hide and seek in my head,
I curse to myself why I run behind gimcrack liquor?
But it's a give and take,
Isn't it?

Killing By Computer
There is now computer simulated duck murder training..
similar to the computerized bombing of Iraq and Afghanistan
from Florida by computer.
We have a presidential candidate in the US who killed with
such abstraction... bombing Vietnamese women he did not
see from the air. The abstraction of violence generates a greater
level of violence.

Sarah Palin Smoked Pot And Called The Kettle Black?
Sarah Palin prime presidential material stated
people’s hero Julian Assange is a terrorist! Then
imposed Presidential sentence to be carried out.
Sarah Palin feels how wronged, she attacked Julian Assange, in
great Palin stalker tradition, she denounced innocent him; prime
terrorist who therefore should be allowed No Human Rights.
No Trial Julian Assange Assassinated a dehumanizing sentence
affirming Palin denial of human rights Geneva conventions.
Yes U.S. Republican Party Vice-Presidential candidate Governor
Palin said Assange should be hunted down like al-Qa'ida or Taliban.
Scary military build up invasion war to hunt down one man in Afghanistan.
Statistically now safe for at least a decade like hunted Osama bin Laden?
The moral of the story journalist Palin believes Assange should be executed.
Literally executed. Ladies on Palin bad hair day do not insult her clothes.
Palin who believes North Korea is one of America’s most important allies.
Image horror of Palin Presidential Order, nuke South Korea.
Imposed Sarah if I were President sentence to be carried out.
What a nightmare on apocalyptic global scale that would be.
Palin vast intellect geographic expert would nuke wrong Korea.
Palin muddled admitted she smoked inhaled marijuana when younger.
Palin proclaimed marijuana was legal in Alaska during her totage.

The cost of congressional and presidential campaigns has been leaping every two or four years. I think this year it will be 60 percent more than 1996; well over twice as much as in 1992 in the presidential and congressional races.

I've concluded that anarchism is an impractical ideal. Nowadays, I regard myself as a libertarian. I suppose an anarchist would say, paraphrasing what Marx said about agnostics being "frightened atheists,"that libertarians are simply frightened anarchists. Having just stated the case for the opposition, I will go along and agree with them: yes, I am frightened. I'm a libertarian because I don't trust the people as much as anarchists do. I want to see government limited as much as
possible; I would like to see it reduced back to where it was in Jefferson's time, or even smaller. But I would not like to see it abolished. I think the average American, if left totally free, would act exactly like Idi Amin. I don't trust the people any more than I trust the government.

During a political campaign everyone is concerned with what a candidate will do on this or that question if he is elected except the candidate; he's too busy wondering what he'll do if he isn't elected.

Candidate
Inside every teenage girl there's a fountain
Inside every young pair of pants there's a mountain
Inside every mother's eyes is tommy tinkrem's bed
Inside every candidate waits a grateful dead
I make it a thing, when i'm on my own to relieve myself
I make it a thing, when i gazelle on stage to believe in myself
I make it a thing, to glance in window panes and look pleased with myself
Yeah, and pretend i'm walking home
I took it so bad, i sat in the correction room
Took me a fag, and a kick in the moon
Well, i ain't gonna suck no radar wing
Because inside this tin is tin
Would you like to techno-plate cause i'm your candidate
Oh yeah
It's a matter of life
And the way you walk, you've got a brylcream queen
It's a matter of tact
In the things you talk, that keeps his passport clean
A matter of fact
That a cock ain't a cock on a twelve inch screen
So i'll pretend i'm walking home
You don't have to scream a lot to keep an age in tune
You don't have to scream a lot to predict monsoons
You don't have to paint my contact black
Now i've hustled a pair of jeans
Do i have to give your money back when i'm the fuhrerling
I'll make you a deal
I'll say i came from from earth and my tongue is taped
I'll make you a deal
You can get your kicks on the candidate
I'll make you a deal
For your future's sake, i'm the candidate
Let's pretend we're walking home
Uh-huh, uh-huh
I'm the candidate
I'm the candidate
Vote now for the candidate

Basically what they're saying is, if you want to be on TV, if you want to be a credible candidate, you've got to buy ads. And if you're not buying ads, you're not a credible candidate, we don't cover you.

Awura Abena
'Awura Abena',
A Ghanaian girl;
'Awura Abena',
A Ghanaian lady;
'Awura Abena',
A Ghanaian woman;
'Awura Abena',
A female in my society;
But i am from 'Akim Swedru' and,
I have something for this world!
Because, my lovely muse is fully matured.
This is to you and beyond you,
But, launched officially! !
Because you want to know who i am;
All the same, this poem is for you all as well.
To share,
To divide,
This thought,
This same token;
And like a presidential candidate in your land,
But to facilitate this muse is like the sweet love of 'Awura Abena'.
