I've held office within the party, nothing big though. I will run for office and I'm in a fairly rural area so I don't think the competition will be too tough. I am thinking about starting off either at a city council level although my friends think I should start off in some non-partisan race like water district. When I run, I intend to win so I'll be saving a few bucks and hitting up a lot of Libertarians for campaign donations and to volunteer. I'm not sure who I'll have manage my campaign. Mark Selzer has been doing a bit of that lately in between doing his Libertarian cable access television and radio shows.

I recommend you include a link to this thread in any promotional materials you make for the campaign.

If you win, you can say, "Ha!"

If you lose, we can jeer.

I anticipate losing a few elections before winning one. It takes awhile to get name recognition and the skill to run an effective campaign. So there's nothing in it for me to link this site. Besides, why would I give this site free publicity or advertising?

And for the anti-psychotic drugs to kick in.

BTW, what's the cellar record for mass accumulation of a thread? 17 pages in 15 days? that's pretty good.

Quite frankly, I'm surprised you haven't sent any of your fellow cult members over here...seeing as we need schooling here and all.

That is pretty good...but I think we've done faster accumulations...there's one thread in my forum that went to 7 pages in 3 1/2 days. Some of those threads involving Cairo went out of control pretty fast too.

Sounds like the voice of experience talking.

The "cult" of constitution followers. Scary.

Actually, I'd be interested to read that too.
