I’ve been political my entire life, starting out with Barry Goldwater and The Conscience of a Conservative in the1960's. In 1967 I enlisted in the U.S. Marines for four years, spending nearly two of them in South Vietnam. In 1972 I was a Florida presidential elector for Prof. John Hospers, the first Presidential candidate of the national Libertarian Party which was founded that same year. During the late 1970's and into the 1980's I was a contributing editor and monthly columnist for Reason magazine, and I’ve authored numerous articles in the print and online media about various subjects relating to individual rights and personal freedom. Today I'm a lawyer by profession; I divide my time between New Hampshire and Florida all year long, spending much of my time practicing law in Florida. As an early supporter and past member of the board of directors of the Free State Project, I was drawn to the Live Free or Die state of New Hampshire in late 2003 when it was chosen by a vote of the first 5,000 FSP participants. In 2004 I founded the Republican Liberty Caucus of New Hampshire, and continue today to work within the state political system to advance the traditional NH values of frugal small government, low taxes, small business, free enterprise, and self-responsibility. To all, I say "Come and see what we are building in the beautiful, healthy, livable Free State of New Hampshire!"

Mao Zedong was promoting the the idea that music and …

About that recent Supreme Court decision…

…the one by Justice Scalia that invalidated the Arizona election law? The one that’s an utter disaster for clean and honest elections? The one that lets Democrats use their vote fraud machines like ACORN to subvert the voting process in America? Well get this: We won. Here’s why.

Why New Hampshire? Ummm…because Detroit is the future of America?

Detroit is a perfect example of what the future of America is going to look like.  We live in a nation that is rotting, decaying, drowning in debt and racing toward insolvency.  Already there are dozens of other cities across the nation that are poverty-ridden, crime-infested hellholes just like Detroit is, and hundreds of other communities …

Bioluminescence….

Science. Spirit. This from Gerard Van der Leun’s blog, American Digest: Science: Bioluminescent bacteria occur nearly everywhere, and probably most spectacularly as …

At least we won’t have to worry about White Privilege anymore…

With regard to white racism and its light-skinned clone, White Privilege (referring to the unearned advantages white people have), there’s good news for those who oppose those unfair perks! This headline from today’s Wall Street Journal: “More Whites Dying Than Being Born” From the article: The number of non-Hispanic white Americans who died in the year ended …
