Tad's political page

My first list of political links is of essential political literature, including the Declaration of Independence (of the US), and the US Constitution (sorry about the bias--if anyone out there can suggest another nation's Constitution, and give me a link to it somewhere on the net, I'll be happy to add it, too).

Sun-Tzu's Art of War, which is more about Politics then the name may suggest, and is also a classic pioneering work.
Adam Smith's ...Wealth of Nations
...Jefferson's (mainly) Declaration of Independence
Jefferson on Politics and Government: Quotes
The US Constitution
An index of U.S. Historical documents including those above plus the Gettysburg Address, Articles of Confederation, etc.
Another such index

I have compiled a list of sites for official government entities, such as the White House, and the House of Representatives. This is for voicing your opinion to those in charge(and you wonder why they're trying to regulate the internet?). Keep 'em honest...stay informed, in-tune, and in contact!!

The White House Homepage.
The website for the House of Representatives.
The page of the U.S. Social Security Administration
The U.S.Census Bureau. Great for research!
The Central Intelligence Agency page
The Federal Bureau of Investigation page
The U.S. Department of Transportation page
A page devoted to Dick Armey's Flat Tax proposal
The FedWorld index, which lists comprehensively all of the online branches of the federal government. Great for research!
Ted Kennedy's homepage--send hate mail here!!

CapWeb, focusing on Official Congressional Sites
The FedWorld index, again. (I couldn't decide where to put it, so voila!)
The aptly-(if boringly) named Political Index. More interesting than the name suggests. Really.
The Jefferson Project

Libertarianism Links

This list of political links is for links to sites representing the best, most underrated, most misunderstood party in America...the Libertarian Party.

I have compiled/am compiling as many resources to Libertarian articles here, and may someday start an LP and Libertarianism homepage of my own.

In the meantime, browse what I have, and feel free to write and debate, agree, postulate, or place opinion about what you read here. I am always eager to discuss my political views with others, so I will welcome your mail, and promptly (i.e. usually within 3 days) respond to it. Enjoy!

The main Libertarian Party page. (US)

Express yourself by Burning a Flag! Voice your disagreement with public policy harmlessly.
Never let me be accused of offering only one side of the argument. Here is a very well-written site called Critiques of Libertarianism For the record, I actually agree with SOME of the stuff the guy is saying, there are some kinda weird strains of Libertarianism, and just like any other philosophy, it has some straw-man arguments.

This section contains links to places where you can get involved with debating online topics. These are places where I like to frequent when i have extra time, so maybe I'll see ya on there!

• SpeakOut.com
• Yahoo! ClubsThere are LOTS of clubs here, on a number of different topics, not just political. Look around, you're bound to find a few that interest you, and you can be as active or inactive as you like.

My next section deals with certain radio talk show hosts I enjoy listening to, whether or not I agree with everything they say. They are quite entertaining at least, and whether you like them or not, they are having a greater role in determining public opinion.

Neil Boortz, libertarian talk radio. His page is awesome too. Look especially for such highlights as "All the President's Women" (Clinton's women), and "Rules for dating my daughter". :)
An unofficial page for Rush Limbaugh, including an archive of some of his most well known quotes.
...And here's a Rush FAQ.

This list of links concentrates on independant political organizations which I support. [though not yet financially, I'm still just a broke college student (tm)]

The US National Debt Clock. Depressing info on how we're going to force ourselves into Libertarianism through bankruptcy!

Finally, I have included my personal political files that I felt may be of interest to wandering passers. Some are my personal writings on newsnet, and some are files of political interest I've found here or there around cyberspace (Mostly on Newsnet debates). They are in no particlar order.
