The LPAC--now with 80% more ambition

[This was written for our forthcoming newsletter.]

The Libertarian Party of Alachua County has accomplished some notable things in the past. In 2004 we hosted a convention which brought together Libertarians from all over Florida and the nation. We have run several campaigns for local office. We have brought in many speakers to address community members and college students alike. We are, in short, a minor force in local affairs.

And we're not satisfied.

I know, from personal experience, that libertarianism is strong enough in Alachua County to induce legitimate, meaningful change. In the last few years, frankly, we have not done a good job of taking advantage of that. It's time to get back on our feet. It's time to get into the community and seek out activists, leaders, and thinkers. It's time to start working to change the system, instead of continuing to accomplish next to nothing by working within it.

By registering to vote as a Libertarian you are saying two things. First, that you believe the government is seriously overstepping its intended purpose. And second, that you do not believe the major parties are the answer. The Libertarian Party wants, and needs, your help.
