Dear Liberator Online subscriber:

I have some wonderful news that I wanted to share with you right away!

The Sunday, June 17 edition of The Washington Post featured an article about The World's Smallest Political Quiz and the Advocates.

Among the Post's comments about the Quiz: "The quiz has gained respect as a valid measure of a person's political leanings..."

Wow! What an endorsement and boost for the credibility of the Quiz!

The Washington Post, of course, is one of the world's most influential newspapers -- and the Sunday edition is read by over one million people. Among those readers are some of the most powerful and influential people on the planet.

I don't have to tell you how important this is for the libertarian movement. Breakthrough!

Along with the article, The Post reprinted the Quiz in its entirety, with directions for scoring, along with the Advocates' Web site address so folks can take the Quiz online.

You can read the article here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A8992-2001Jun16.html

Enjoy!

Unfortunately, they don't have the Quiz illustration posted there, just the text of the article. If you'd like to see the entire piece -- which is quite impressive -- just send me your snail-mail address and I'll be happy to send you a free reprint as soon as we get one printed.

If you like the article, consider emailing a letter to the newspaper at: mailto:outlook@washpost.com

Be sure to keep your letter short and thank them for printing the Quiz. If you have gained insight from the Quiz, or if you discovered your political position by taking the Quiz, you might briefly share that story. Or simply thank them for printing a political map that is more useful than the old, inaccurate left-right line -- a new political map which includes your position.

By the way, you probably noticed that the Liberator Online is a little late. We're holding it until we finish the bells and whistles on an exciting new Advocates project that we'll be announcing in our next issue. It'll be out in a few more days. So please keep an eye out for it.

Thanks for your support and enthusiasm -- it makes good news like this Washington Post article all the more enjoyable.

Have a wonderful day!

For liberty,

Sharon Harris President, Advocates for Self-Govenment

P.S. You can take the Quiz yourself -- or share it with friends -- at: http://www.self-gov.org.
