All politicians and candidates threaten my freedom

You cannot transfer or nullify another person's rights by making an X on a ballot. All you can do is enable a power-seeker to assume a patina of legitimacy when he claims jurisdiction over and uses force on the unconsenting.

That patina is the consent of the majority, or democracy, which is the sworn enemy of individual rights. In his treatise No Treason, Spooner explained, A man’s natural rights are his own, against the whole world; and any infringement of them is equally a crime, whether committed by one man, or by millions; whether committed by one man, calling himself a robber, ... or by millions, calling themselves a government. The “principle that the majority have a right to rule” merely divides society into “two bodies of men” – masters and slaves – and, so, both negates individual rights and cements conflict into society.

Every person who is a politician or who seeks political office is a threat to my freedom and safety. It does not matter whether the power-seeker is a Republican or a libertarian, a Democrat or a tea-bagger.

Government is coercion, by force if necessary. To the extent that it is necessary to protect and defend the republic, the Constitution should be the bedrock for policy makers and not a "living document" to interpret as suits their needs.
