Re: MASSACRE IN MALI
This thread is off to a good start. It made me google search 2016 libertarian party candidates which took me to the politicks.org "politics and elections portal" to find out whether Gary Johnson is actually running this time. Sadly he's not.
But there appear to be some really intriguing new candidates.

But there appear to be some really intriguing new candidates.
Joy Waymire resides in California, where she graduated from high school and attended college without completing a degree. She holds a certificate as a Paralegal, however, and has served in the Army.
Waymire is a deeply spiritual person, saying that she learned her faith as a child from a friend only she could see, called Becky. Her mother dismissed this phenomenon as a typical imaginary playmate, but today, as an adult, Waymire still believes Becky was real. She also believes that God has supernaturally intervened in her life on numerous occasions, including by manifesting several graphic and painful stigmata on her head, hands, feet, and side. Having once suffered from Hepatitis C, astigmatism, diabetes, thyroid disease, and rheumatoid arthritis, among a host of other tragic conditions that had her confined to a wheelchair, she says that she has been miraculously healed of all, with doctors unable to offer any rational medical explanation.

Derrick Michael Reid is a graduate of Western State University and the University of California, and has attended numerous other institutions of higher learning. He boasts of having twenty years of educational instruction and forty-five years of professional training to his credit, and claims that he logged such long hours during that period (at times over a hundred hours per week) that he effectively enjoys the benefits of some one-hundred years of combined study and experience. Despite having been a gifted student who readily mastered the difficult fields of engineering and law (so that he is now both an electronic engineer and an attorney), he admits that his ability to write and otherwise communicate in English is limited, calling mathematics his first language.
Reid is a religious man and self-avowed “huge fan of Jesus”, crediting great religious movements of the last 5,000 years with the establishing of social taboos against incest, adultery, abortion, murder, cannibalism, and homosexuality. Nevertheless, he is amenable to gay rights, arguing that the social paradigm has changed from ancient to modern times so that the imperative to reproduce has diminished in a now overpopulated world. While personally disapproving of homosexual conduct, he firmly maintains that the federal government has no place passing or enforcing laws regarding sexual behavior between consenting adults. He does, however, believe that states should be allowed to rule individually on such matters.
Reid is extremely critical of the US Supreme Court, believing that that body has effectively destroyed the rule of law in the United States by declaring that the Constitution is a “living document” open to continual reinterpretation, which he reads as code for the judicial branch of government to decide that anything they wish to impose on the nation is constitutional, thus ruling by fiat. He advocates for the need of a “Libereen” administration that will put a halt to the overreach of the judiciary.
Broadly speaking, Reid supports individual liberty and states' rights over the authority of the federal government, and a return to what he views as basic, revolutionary-era interpretations of the Constitution. In this, he attracts conservative and Libertarian attention, but ironically, many right-wing voters who share his fervent religious beliefs may be put off by his permissive attitude towards homosexuality. Furthermore, it is a reality of American politics that charisma and people skills are an essential component of any successful politician, and as here Reid fails by his own admission, he faces great challenges in gaining traction towards public recognition.

Re: MASSACRE IN MALI
The Libertarians seem to alternate between solid candidates like Johnson and total nut jobs. Even at the local level in Delaware, the party seems to attract candidates who are nerdy odd ducks, at best. One guy I worked with in my first law firm in 1980 later ran unsuccessfully for several positions. He fit the "unelectable nerd" stereotype to a T. Whyizzit?

Re: MASSACRE IN MALI
Well I heard that short hair foreign affairs chick on FNC later say there were reportedly 26 US military personnel in Mali (advisors?), 22 in the capitol, and that 2 US SF operators "assisted" the Mali forces in taking back the hotel..Ivytalk wrote:I didn't know we had Special Forces in Mali.

So what is your story with Harvard? Did you fail out? Get homesick? Had a bi-curious slip up with a male prof? I was discussing that with another member over crabs and we were wondering.

mostly for disrespecting school grounds
graffiti relating to staff members and something about inciting a riot
It was quite a mess and a long story - it was a very long time ago
I was able to return (20 years later) and do some work for the school and make amends of sorts
It all works out in the end

Did fool me though, I didn't see you as smart enough to be crazy, rather as a cowering milquetoast, fearful of "terrorists" whom he has less than lightnings chance of being struck by. Trying to mask his weakness with bellicosity and repeatedly making pejorative homosexual references in an attempt to seem more masculine.
And a near-JSO level drama queen.
