[Lnc-business] Previous Notice

[Mark Hinkle]

Dear LNC,

This certainly is NOT a well thought out idea.

1. people who read political magazines typically have already chosen a 
horse to ride.....and it ain't us.

2. the demographic we need and want to pursue don't read magazines. They 
read blogs and use Ipad's & Tablets.

3. people to subscribe to political magazines, are already well aware of 
the LP.  Didn't anyone notice that the GOP tried, and in some cases, 
succeeded in keeping our presidential team off of the ballot.  So, 
telling them we exists is really really redundant.

4. what other worthwhile project is going to be cut to fund this nutty 
idea?  Or, who's going to raise money for this?  BTW, not me!

5. and BTW, the media is well aware of the LP and our positions. They 
don't need to be "educated" about us.

Nutty..............Mark Hinkle,
LNC At-Large & Retired LP Chair
