I choose the William McKinley of 2016

Posted by A.H. on Monday, November 7, 2016,

My endorsement for the U.S. presidential election

 

After almost two years of one of the most vicious and policy-absent campaigns in American history, Election Day is finally – almost – here. Americans will have the final say over who they believe should be their next commander-in-chief and head of the Executive branch: former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton or businessman and reality TV star Donald Trump. While in the past, American presidential elections have usually been contests ...

We vote for a more liberal Liberal Party

Our endorsement for the Australian general election

 

Australians go to the polls on Saturday to choose a new Parliament and to decide whether Liberal Malcolm Turnbull remains Primer Minister or Labor’s Bill Shorten moves into The Lodge. Even though Australia is a parliamentary democracy and voters choose Members of Parliament and Senators rather than a Prime Minister directly, our endorsement decision on which party or parties to support is based on who will end up being Prime Minister. ...

Decision time in America

Our endorsement for the Republican and Democratic presidential nominations

 

Americans begin the process to choose their new president on Monday with the much-publicized Iowa caucuses. It’s hard not to feel disheartened and anxious when we observe that the two candidates garnering the most traction and enthusiasm in rallies are a narcissistic megalomaniac whose entire campaign is built on xenophobia and chauvinism, and a self-described socialist who is campaigning on a message of class ...

A tough choice for Canada

Posted by A.H. on Sunday, October 18, 2015,

More than an endorsement, our view on the Canadian election

 

After almost a decade at the helm of Canada’s federal government, Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper is fighting to remain in power in one of the closest electoral races in many years. On Monday, October 19th, Canadians will finally decide if they want a fourth consecutive Conservative administration or a new government. We have been struggling with our choice for this election for many weeks and are still not very sure...

Choose freedom in Denmark

Our endorsement for the Danish general election 

Danes go the polls on Thursday to choose a new parliament and decide if they give Helle Thorning-Schmidt another mandate as Prime Minister. Irrespective of which major party comes on top and is able to form a stable government --whether Ms. Thorning-Schmidt's center-left Social Democrats or Lars Lokke Rasmussen's center-right Venstre--, we believe the Danish parliament would do well having a strong dose of classical liberalism in it.

During the p...

Dear Italians, give Berlusconi a slap in the face at the polling booth

Posted by A.H. on Saturday, February 23, 2013,

Our endorsement for the Italian general election



Italians go to the polls on Sunday and Monday amidst a difficult economic scenario at home and in the Eurozone. While the reforms taken by current Prime Minister Mario Monti to sort out the country’s fiscal crisis have had a positive effect –although much remains to be done on that front–, he has failed to put together a broad coalition to win the election and has decided to pander to socially conservative segments of Italian society.

Mr...

  Our endorsement for U.S. president 


 


Four years ago, America made history –once again– by electing its first African American president in the midst of a deep financial and confidence crisis. Four years later, an America still worried about its future and its pocket –although no longer in a deep crisis– goes to the polls to choose between two men with two very different visions for the country. We believe President Obama’s vision is far superior to that of his Republican challeng...

Vote for the lesser evil

Our endorsement for Tuesday’s midterm elections

Americans will go to the polls on Tuesday, November 2nd, to choose a new Congress. As liberals –in the real, classical meaning of the term–, we find it difficult to select one party over the other. On issue after issue, both the Democratic Party and the Republican Party contain numerous illiberal and even authoritarian elements that we find quite unpalatable. Moreover, over the last decade, both parties have proven to be incapable of d...

New Yorkers will choose a Governor, not a (fake) moralizer.

RealLibs endorses Andrew Cuomo for New York Governor

New Yorkers choose a new Governor on November 2nd and the choice could not be clearer. This race is between an experienced, inclusive and pro-business Democrat like Andrew Cuomo and a divisive Republican figure like Carl Paladino. While Mr. Paladino offers extremist right-wing rhetoric with no real substance, Mr. Cuomo has put forward a sensible plan to balance the state budget (putting the main focus on cutting wasteful spending and unn...

RealLibs endorses Alex Sink for Florida Governor

As America’s fourth largest state –and one of the most important points of entrance to the U.S.–, Florida matters to the world. During the last years, Republican-turned-independent Governor Charlie Crist has adopted a pragmatic agenda focusing on solving Florida’s problems instead of pushing for divisive and ideology-driven policies his former party is so used to pursue.

Florida is a microcosm of America: Diverse, multicultural, an...

Vote for independence from the two-party machine

RealLibs endorses Charlie Crist for U.S. Senator

 

Floridians will choose a new Senator on November 2nd and their decision could shift the balance of power in Washington. There is one fact Floridians (especially Democrats and center-left voters) should keep in mind: This is not a three-way race. Democrat Kendrick Meek has no real chance of getting elected. This race is between Independent candidate Charlie Crist and Republican candidate Marco Rubio.

During his time as Governor of the Su...

A true Independent for Rhode Island

Posted by A.H. on Sunday, October 24, 2010,

RealLibs endorses Lincoln Chafee for Rhode Island Governor

Rhode Island chooses a new governor on November 2nd. Based on the latest polls, this contest has turned into a two-horse race between Democrat Frank Caprio and Independent Lincoln Chafee. We are proud to announce our support for former U.S. Senator and Independent candidate Lincoln Chafee.

During his years in the Senate, Mr. Chafee demonstrated what being an independent is all about. Probably the last representative of the once...

The lesser of two evils? No.

We choose the best option for Australia. We choose the Greens.

For many years, Australia has caught the imagination of the entire world in different ways. Whether for its amazing natural beauty, the kindness of its multicultural society or its highly developed economy, Australia is one of those hard-to-forget places in the world.  Now, what does this have to do with politics and, particularly, liberalism? In many ways, Australia is an example of liberalism. The country’s econo...

A British telling of American media

Just one word to describe this video: hilarious! (and so true and sad). You'd better watch it!
