Dear supporter of the Libertarian Party,
I have served on the Libertarian Party national committee for 2 terms. In this time I have worked to bring the same success I have fostered at the local and state level to the national party. Unfortunately due to personality conflicts and infighting most of these efforts have been pushed aside in order to spend more time on disputes that yield no positive results.
Isn't it time that this party focused on ACHIEVEMENT?
I am establishing the ACHIEVE slate for the election of Libertarian Party national committee members at the May 29-30 in St Louis, MO. The ACHIEVE slate consists of all candidates for the committee that support the principles of the ACHIEVE slate. I am asking you to sign this petition as a sign of your support for the ACHIEVE slate. Your signature will demonstrate your support for the following candidates for the Libertarian Party national committee:
- Pat Dixon, At Large member
- Dan Karlan, Region 5N representative
Please consider supporting the petition:
The candidates for the 2010 Libertarian Party national committee that I support agree to the following principles:
- I support setting goals supported by the consensus of the committee, informing our membership of our intentions, and reporting our achievements and failures on these efforts
- When a flame war erupts, I am more likely to delete emails than respond to them
- I will treat fellow committee members with due respect and maintain appropriate decorum
- I will not be hyper sensitive, look for reasons to be offended, or seek to adopt a victim status
- I do not feel the LNC is the place to settle radical/reformer or other factional disputes. I do not feel the LNC is a substitute for the platform committee, our candidates, or our affiliates.
- I believe the national party should allow candidates and affiliates reasonable discretion on their messaging of Libertarian principles. The national party will choose its messaging to best support our principles and our affiliates
- I oppose compromising our principles for political gain
Vote for a Libertarian who has:
I am honored to represent you on the national committee. With your vote, I will continue to work to grow the party while maintaining the principles of our party.
