Message
from the Chair
Our work with the Home Rule
Charter Committee to amend the County charter has completed the home stretch. The
Supervisor of Elections has certified that all three referendums will appear on the March
2000 ballot. Now we need to get the word out to the voters to vote YES on these issues.
Perhaps you saw the front page article
in Florida Today explaining the proposals and some of the County Commissioner's
opinions. As usual, our Commissioners are not pleased with the idea of giving the voters
more control of how their money is spent. Both of the Commissioners interviewed criticized
the proposals and attempted to place them in a negative light. We need to write
"Letters to the Editor" and make sure that the voter's side of the story gets
told as well.
The LP Florida's Operation
Bootstrap is off and running here in Brevard. Operation Bootstrap
is the LPF's plan to double the size of the Libertarian Party here in Florida. This is the
first part of preparing to reap the benefits of last year's Revision 11 victory.
We'll be seeing more Libertarian
candidates on the ballot in 2000 and we must have a party big enough to give them the
backing they deserve. The first mailing has been sent to all the registered Libertarians
in Brevard who are not already party members. Our telephone volunteers have been making
the follow-up phone calls needed to help make this project a success. More mailings and
follow-up calls are planned for the future and we need your help. Each volunteer receives
a professionally developed manual with all the information you will need to make the
calls. In addition, these manuals are a great source of information you can use whenever
you are talking to anyone about the Libertarian Party.
Please contact me either by phone at
636-1535 or email at lee@brevard.net if you are
willing to make some phone calls and help make this project a success.

Our speaker will be Frank Merceret, former Florida State Prosecutor and current opponent
of the War on Drugs. He views both the current
Statist "totalitarian" approach and the proposed Libertarian
"anarchist" approach to recreational drug use to be ludicrous, costly, and
destructive. This promises to be a great presentation on
"A Rational Drug Policy for America".
Don't miss this thought-provoking, controversial presentation! |
