I am a young political activist, writer and artist. I am not a member of any political party, but I probably identify most with the Libertarian party, agreeing with about 90% of their views. I was homeschooled as a child and "dropped out" at age sixteen to take online college classes which greatly encouraged my love of writing as well as furthering my interest in activism. I currently divide most of my spare time between artistic endeavors and trying to change politics as usual. I believe that Republicans and Democrats have had their chance. I believe it's time for a new party. If we change the parties, then we change the system, and if we change the system, we can change the world.
