Alden Link - 2008 & 2012 Objectivist Party Candidate for Vice-President

Alden Link is an entrepreneur, real estate developer and aviator. Achieving energy independence and reducing our dependence on foreign oil is his highest priority. Nuclear energy offers great promise in this area. In addition, his campaign for Vice-President will also focus on ending the drug war, shrinking the size of government, defending America from radical Islamic fundamentalists, ending illegal immigration, encouraging private investment in space tourism, and fighting for the civil liberties of all Americans. As a businessman, he is aware of how government regulation can stifle the entrepreneurial spirit. As an aviator, he feels the spirit of freedom swelling in his heart as he soars through the skies. As a man who obtained a technical education in physics and chemistry, he is in a unique position to understand which alternative energy resources will reduce our dependency on foreign oil. As a real estate developer, he understands how eminent domain abuse has gotten out of hand. As a former serviceman, he does not wish to risk the lives of Americans in unnecessary foreign entanglements. Mr. Link is most qualified to serve this country as Vice-President since he is his own man, with no political baggage, who owes nothing to any special interests. He will promote objectivist philosophy with all his heart and hopes to make a major contribution to the cause of liberty.
