College Park Libertarians Win the Debate
On October 28, the University of Maryland,
College Park Libertarians debated both the College Democrats and College
Republicans. Although the moderator asked more questions of both the Republicans
and Democrats, we able to force our viewpoint in and discredit the positions
of both parties. In a show-hand-vote, the Libertarians were declared the
winner of the debate afterwards, despite a large contingent of Democrats
and Republicans present.
We were able to win by outlining the similarity between the Democrat and
Republican positions. We kept things simple, whereas the other groups
got bogged down in details, and suffered because of it. Soundbites from
Badnarik were especially effective.
I had many people compliment us on our responses, and we were by far the
most popular people in the room following the debate. Several Democrats
and Republicans came up to us and complimented us on how well we debated
and how a lot of our positions make sense.
If anyone would like a copy of some of the
notes we used at the debate, e-mail
me, and I'll forward them to. Also, the debate was videotaped, I'll
let you guys know once a get a hold of a copy of it; hopefully, I'll be
able to put it on CD and make it available.
Support Libertarian Presidential Candidate
Michael Badnarik was nominated to be the Presidential candidate of freedom-minded
Americans at the Libertarian National Convention in Atlanta, GA in early
June. Badnarik is a Constitutional scholar and author from Austin, Texas.
Mr. Badnarik is a man of principle and integrity. He has
an integral understanding of the U.S. Constitution, its intent, and its
meaning. He would make an EXCELLENT President. He will be on the ballot
in at least 49 states, with one pending (Oklahoma, which has atrocious
ballot access standards for third party candidates). He is polling at
2% in key swing states like Wisconsin and Iowa and is presently polling
5% in New Mexico.
The College Park Libertarias encourage you to support
Mr. Badnarik this November. Learn
more about him!
