RE: Libertarians Should Stop Trying to Appeal to Voters
come ON, Ben. This campaign has gone into hyperDrive since AK emerged out of Akin's cage. It has also become more focused on "purpose" beyond simply distributing the "Freedom!" book. It is now aimed at completely taking over the LP (as well it should!!) and poised to transform it into a real, viable alternative. Let's talk about upcoming things, not glory in past activities.
The concepts you men are working on, circling around the New Orleans event(s) are perfect. Can we expand that past a single time frame? Can we be doing things in other states simultaneously, while Adam is stuck there for a month? Where are the leaders in each respective state? How come we don't all know their names? THIS is where the 30-40 year olds need to come into play.
Our schedule on the spring tour is to appear at as many LP state conventions as possible. In the fall, Adam will be speaking on college campuses across Europe. Then next spring is Latin America. Then fall 2019 it's back to touring the US.
Europe? Latin America? uhhhhhh. ohhhhhh-kay. Are we running a Mormon Missionary or a Campaign for President of the USA? I'm lost here. Are we aiming now to shut down the UN, or still focusing on WDC? I'm lost with this, frankly.
Last I heard, they aren't polling voters in any other nation except ours to find the 15% needed to want AK as president, and garner a spot on that debate stage!!! There must be some point to this strategy that I am just not aware of. Please inform.
Libertarian candidates are constantly attacked for having no knowledge of foreign policy. Adam will be the most knowledgable candidate about foreign policy in 2020.
AH. BRILLIANT.
Sold.
It will be interesting to see how "trading without borders" and without government theft in the middle of each transaction will be accepted by other nations' business class. Republicans and Democrats will never offer this. Interesting prospects.
