| Message | We completely understand the position of the Bodhist Liberal Party. We at the Federalists party believe that nuclear weapons should never be used in warfare. However, if we were to limit ourselves to a nuclear strike only after one is perpetuated on us, there would be little left to retaliate with. We believe a position of strength and responsible leadership is much more advantageous on the world stage than altruistic idealism. |
