Negotiations
|
Status Quo Option: Keep the Existing Plank. For all platform categories
we have the option of doing nothing; that is accepting what the LP already
has.

The LP Platform Currently Reads
The Issue: Intervention by the government in Washington
in the affairs of other nations is an attempt to impose our values on those
nations by force.
The Principle: The important principle
in foreign policy should be the elimination of intervention by the United
States government in the affairs of other nations.
Solutions: We favor a drastic reduction
in cost and size of our total diplomatic establishment. We would negotiate
with any foreign government without necessarily conceding moral legitimacy
to that government
Transitional Action: We favor the repeal
of the Logan Act, which prohibits private American citizens from engaging
in diplomatic negotiations with foreign governments.
[If you think the current LP position on this subject is acceptable, then
vote "yes" below. If not, vote "no" below. Either way, please consider the
other options listed on the right sidebar and vote "yes" for all that you
like and "no" for all that you dislike. This is an approval vote; you get
to vote for all of the options that you like.]
