  1. As a human child who will need to function on various social levels in order to achieve your goals throughout life, it is in your rational best interest to develop certain social graces which, to this point, seem to have been lacking. The concept of adapting your mannerisms and tempering your speech so as not to be offensive or otherwise chase off potential friendly acquaintances does not assume that you must abandon your ideals or morals, or even alter your personality on any appreciable level. It's just a matter of being friendly. I think you'll find that friends will simply happen if you, again acting in your own self interest, show yourself to be a friendly individual. Which doesn't mean anything like changing yourself. You are only compelled to be friendly in as much as you believe it will serve you well in your day to day life.
  2. The notion of an Objectivist party is, in my mind, fundamentally flawed. As has been stated before, objectivity belongs in the classroom, government does not. Politics belong in government, objectivity does not. On the surface this looks like a cheap ploy to appropriate the movement on behalf of an individual with presidential perspirations. I don't know, it just doesn't do it for me.
