A Challenge

Since the elections are over. now is the time to build on the momentum that the Libertarian Party gained. The party is now on the ballots in 48 state, and from what i here, that is from now on.

So now i think we need to focus on the local area around us. We need to each do our part locally. It will take Name recognition to get this party going. It will take us talking constantly about Our Libertarian Party and Our Ideals.

So i have a challenge for each and everyone of the readers here. Regardless of whether you live in the Upstate of SC or not.
1- Talk to your friends. Anytime Politics comes up as a topic, bring up the Libertarian perspective. Tell them of how you feel the Libertarians would make the situation, in your own words. This will have a humongous impact on the political world.
2 - Start a letter campaign. Start writing Letters To The Editor in your local paper about Your Libertarian Party. Write as often as they will let you. Here in my local paper we have the Letter section and another opinion section. If yours does, send to both of them. Bombard the paper with your writing. (If you write 3 or more that has the word Libertarian in it, then you can log onto www.theadvocates.org and nominate yourself for an award that they do.)
3 - TV. If you can find a way to get on TV to talk your political views, DO IT!
4 - Radio. Call into the local Talk Radio Stations and bring up the Libertarian Party as much as you can. Everyone else calls in to talk of THEIR party. Why don't you call in about YOUR party.
5 - If you do not have a local chapter of the Libertarian Party, look into starting one. And get the name out. Just for the record i am seriously thinking about getting the ball rolling for the county that i am in. I was in the works with it earlier this year, but i got side tracked with everything going on, and dropped the ball.
6 - Challenge those you know to run for Political Office in your local area. Even if it is only for the position of Dog Catcher. We have to start somewhere.

So there is your challenge. So who is up for it? Leave comments to let the other readers know what your plans are. If there is a big enough turnout, I might even have to put in an Awards Program for this.

Viva Liberty!
