[Lnc-business] Joe Buchman & the Americans for Prosperity debate

[Starchild]

	I called and emailed AFP's Evelyn Everton asking for Joe to be included in the debates. Not sure if such public feedback made the difference in AFP's eventual decision to do the right thing by allowing him to participate, but it could have. Organizations rarely acknowledge changing course as a result of public pressure; I think those who run them are afraid of it, and don't want to give activists any encouragement. But we should encourage all Libertarian candidates to share and spread this kind of information, any time you are excluded from a candidate forum, debate, media interview opportunity, etc., that is extended to your cartel party opponents. Let's mobilize our supporters to call, write, and generate public pressure on organizations and individuals who engage in that kind of anti-democratic behavior at the expense of Libertarians and the cause of freedom!

Love & Liberty,
