  Just as $^3\roarrow{\rm He}$ can be approximately characterized as a
polarized neutron target, polarized \Li6D has been advocated as a good {\em
isoscalar} nuclear target for the extraction of the polarized gluon content of
the nucleon. The original argument rests upon a presumed ``alpha + deuteron''
picture of \Li6, with the polarization of the nucleus carried by the
polarization of the deuteron. We have calculated the polarization of the
constituents of \Li6 as a three-body bound state of $\alpha + n + p$
interacting with local potentials fitted to the scattering data. It is
necessary to include partial waves up to $j=17/2$ (75 channels, or, when
including the $T=1$ state, 150 channels) in the Faddeev equations before the
energy eigenvalue converges. The longitudinal formfactors are then described
well by the wave function. Various combinations of $\alpha$N and NN strong and
Coulomb potentials yield a straight line in the charge radius {\em vs.} energy
plane which, unlike those of previous calculations, passes through the
experimental datum. We find for all cases a polarization of the valence neutron
in excess of 90\%. This may make polarized \Li6D an attractive target for many
nuclear physics purposes, since its neutrons are effectively 45\% polarized.
