DEMOCRACY EATS LIBERTARIAN PARTY ALIVE WITH THE SECRET BALLOT The enemies of liberty destroy our efforts easily With a secret ballot. All they simply have to do is join the party and then vote consistently for people and ideas that violate the Libertarian Principle. By allowing them to do this under the veil of the secret ballot they can outnumber the real Libertarians and then we can never effectively remove them in time to stop them from destroying our effectiveness. All of our efforts would by stymied at the starting block right there within our party. We would be sitting ducks with no way to avoid catastrophe. DEMOCRACY, ONE OF THE VILEST FORMS OF GOVERNMENT THERE IS, RULES, EVEN WITHIN THE LIBERTARIAN PARTY AND WITH THE SECRET BALLOT, WE HAVE NO WAY TO CORRECTLY ASCERTAIN JUST HOW MUCH AND BY WHOM THE ANTI-LIBERTARIAN FORCES ARE RULING US. DEMOCRACY, THE TYRANT, USES THE SECRET BALLOT AS CAMOFLAGE, AND EATS THE LIBERTARIAN PARTY ALIVE!

Once the camoflage is removed, then the Libertarians can instead use democracy, the tyrant, as a force to help eliminate threats from outsiders who want to use democracy to destroy the party: 'I understand that if I advocate a governmental program or platform that would violate The Libertarian Party Principle against anyone, that I may be voted out of the Libertarian Party by a simple majority vote (over 50%) of those present at the meeting.' BUT THIS CAN ONLY BE DONE AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE FORMATION OF THE ORGANIZATION BEFORE THE ANTI-LIBERTARIAN FORCES OUT NUMBER US!!! OTHERWISE WE CANNOT USE DEMOCRACY AS A FORCE AGAINST THE ANTI-LIBERTARIANS BECAUSE THEY WILL OUT NUMBER US EVERY TIME ONCE THEY HAVE GAINED A MAJORITY. There is no way to audit the vote count when votes are cast with a secret ballot. The audit trail, the chain of evidence is broken and votes can be easily substituted with the secret ballot. gene karl anti-federalist
