: Ladonia is our chance to start over again.
How many times have not people tried to "start over again" and only managed to repeat the failures of history. The statement actually implies repetition, and we don't want to repeat the mistakes of so called "democracies" in Ladonia, do we?
: Building a new nation based on freedom and prosperity
: We have it in our power to set an example for all to follow.
Do we wish to become an example to follow or do we simply want to be Ladonia - the country of freedoms? How about a monarchy of freedom - that would be something new!
: Let us not spoil this by copying the system of heriditary monarchy/tyrrany found in most of our neighbouring countries.
Someone who talks about tyranny is someone thinking about tyranny. You named it!
: A system of liberty is necesary in order to secure our rights to Life, Liberty, and Property.
A "system of liberty" cannot be equal to freedom since any system by its very structure is constraining real freedom, right?
: Only we can secure a system where citizens can live as they see fit without any form of the tyrranies of majority rule and autocracy by a queen
: A vote for the Ladonia Liberalists is a vote for frredom,prosperity and the right to choose your own head of state.
Few! I think you're the one looking for power here, Henning. Listen to a hypocrats speech for votes. How can you secure anybody elses freedom to live as he/she sees fit? Are you God?
Folks, I say you'll be better off with Ywonne as queen than a hypocratic liberalist for president. At least Ywonne does not claim to secure anyone elses freedom. But to me she sure is a godess!
