Libertarian Party member in Indiana, endorsing Josh Smith for LNC chair

My name is Benjamin Thompson and I've identified as a libertarian for a long time, and occasionally been a part of the LP. I was a highly active Ron Paul supporter in 2008; I started the Meetup in my area and collected a long list of friends and contacts from those heady days when we naively thought Ron had a shot. The "movement," such as it is, has taken some hits along the way since then. If the LP is going to be a useful messenger for the ideas we hold dear, I think new leadership is in order. I think Josh Smith and Alex Merced are up to the challenge.
