Libertarian ping!

I am the bearer of the FreeRepublic Libertarian ping list (200+ Freepers). The list is generally pinged around 3 times a day, mostly due to alerts from folks on the list, with a drop off on weekends. To see if you would like to be a part of this list click on 'in forum' above and check out the types of stories we ping to.

What is a Libertarian? A freedom loving, high on life, passionate and compassionate individual, who believes in the concept of human freedom. Here is a great animation and essay for further explanation.


About me:
I am 27 years old and reside in Las Vegas (Henderson), NV. I am in my 3rd year of medical school, attending Touro University Nevada School of Osteopathic Medicine. I was recently selected to be the Student Osteopathic Medical Association National Director of Political Affairs. I am also a certified Yoga teacher.

My favorite picture from the Welfare paper: the Reverend Jackson marching with N.O.W against Welfare Reform and the results of the reforms they so adamantly opposed. State Reform was begun in 1992 and the National Bill was passed in 1996. More charts here.
