* The PLEDGE. Obviously this poll is inadequate to properly address all these complicated issues, and if I am to effectively represent my constituency a lot more polls with more specific questions will need to be created, circulated and tabulated before I’ll be able to make my final decision how to vote on each issue put before me. This is meant to be representative of an unbiased poll, like what would be available from the WebsiteTheme.
When newlibertarians.com is fully functional it will be a new world of political empowerment for voters. The prototype for the website has a functioning “donate” opportunity, as well as volunteering opportunity- under the “Help Us” category. We will need money, and volunteers- if we’re to have this ready for the elections of 2018.
Hopefully soon you’ll be able to do these polls in a few minutes online, and donate online. For now you’ll have to download the poll to paper, and send in the paper- and we’ll have to process them by hand. We live in America, and everything costs money.
You will notice that one of the answers to each question presented to you in this poll reflects strict “Libertarian Dogma”, and part of my purpose with this poll is to convince people who summarily reject Libertarians as being “too dogmatic” to reevaluate that judgement, as well as convince some of the most dogmatic Libertarians that a wider view would serve the purpose of Liberty better.

(Optional) Is there other questions you suggest we include in later polls? Other comments?
