Conservatives, Libertarians, and Civil Rights History
July 1st, 2010 admin
(David Bernstein) To follow up on Ilya’s post below , it’sworth noting that the post-World War II politician of national significance probably most beloved by libertarianish types (libertarianism was not a self-conscious movement until recently) was Sen. Robert Taft of Ohio. Taft, of course, lost the Republican presidential nomination to Eisenhower in 1952. The conservatives who eventually founded National Review supported Eisenhower, because he was an enthusiastic Cold Warrior. The more libertarian types supported Taft because he wasn’t, and because he more generally was not completely at peace with the New Deal, as Eisenhower was. The split between the Eisenhower and Taft supporters led to the demise of the first major post-war…

Black Panthers, Obama & White C...This video from Dr. David Duke (www.davidduke.com) shows how the New Black Panthers preach death to White people. A court found them guilty of threatening and violating the civil rights of White voters and poll watchers. Yet, Obama and his AG Holder won't prosecute. One more bit of evidence that European Americans have lost their civil rights in America!
Civil Rights for White People?www.davidduke.com Dr. David Duke shows in this video how White people have lost their rights in the United States." Affirmative Action" and "Diversity Programs" are nothing more than nice sounding monikers for racial discrimination. Dr. Duke also shows how Slavery is used to used to justify discrimination against White people when the historical fact is that less than 1 percent of White people every had slaves. There is actually more likelihood of an African American have direct ancestors who owned Black slaves than a White person having a direct ancestor who owned slaves. Dr. Duke shows how racially discrimination programs against better-qualified Whites represent the REAL RACISM going on in America, and it is against European Americans.

Libertarianism From A to Z With Jef...Harvard economist Jeffrey Miron is probably best known for his influential 2005 study The Budgetary Implications of Marijuana Prohibition, which laid out in plain detail the high costs and low benefits of keeping pot illegal. During the financial crisis, Miron was one of the most eloquent and insistent voices opposing government bailouts at all levels. Now Miron has produced Libertarianism From A to Z, an encyclopedic look at everything from abortion to zoos from an angle consistent with classical liberal thought and insights. Miron's book, which covers tough issues such as civil rights legislation, immigration policy, and much more, is simultaneously provocative and engaging. Reason.tv's Nick Gillespie spoke with Miron in Reason's DC HQ; shot by Merdith Bragg and Dan Hayes; edited by Hayes. Go to reason.tv for downloadable versions and more info on the book.

Libertarian Philosophy..."Libertarianism is, as the name implies, the belief in liberty. Libertarians believe that each person owns his own life and property, and has the right to make his own choices as to how he lives his life - as long as he simply respects the same right of others to do the same." "Libertarianism promotes a society where no one is the first to harm (strike, defraud, steal from) another. If someone fails to obey this one-and-only law, then he or she must make things right again with the one who is harmed. The only legitimate use of force is self-defense. Basically, libertarianism is a restatement of how we learned to get along with each other as youngsters. We honor our neighbors' choices, and they honor ours. We don't start fights and only fight back when attacked. We try to make right any wrongs that we do. Simple, isn't it?" www.libertarianism.com www.libertarianism.com Libertarian Party website: www.lp.org
SA@TAC - The Great Neo-Con: Liberta...Unilke libertarianism, which Ronald Reagan once called "the very heart and soul of conservatism," it has been neoconservatism that is an aberration to the conservative movement.
