[Lnc-business] Email Ballot 2017-16: Joe Buchman Donation

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

Alicia, I apologize but I missed your post voting no.  I was able to speak
with Dr. Buchman.  He asked me to relay some information.  LNC funding
would not be the "vast majority," Several significant donations showed up
after the debate.  He would be working for matching fund on the radio on July
29th as mentioned during the debate.  He also will be appearing on coast to
coast (600 stations) from which surely there will be donations.

Has any other LNC member watched the debate?  In addition to dollars Dr.
Buchman asked for constructive feedback and also asked for LNC members to
comment with the polling company on their website.

Dr. Buchman appreciates our desire to create a budget and process.  In the
month he has been running he has gotten into a debate with four other
candidates, been interviewed by KSL, been in four newspapers, been on the
television stations  (brief clips from the debate) and is scheduled for
C2CAM in two weeks as well as a candidate forum in Moab on August 25.  He
also will be at Freedom Fest next week with an audience of likely wealthy
donors.

So it does not appear that the "vast majority" of his funding will be from
any contribution by this body.  Dr. Buchman is a lifetime member who has
given us more than that value in media exposure already.

We have a candidate who has asked us for support both monetarily and with
feedback.  Let's please support our candidate.

Moving away from what Dr. Buchman said, as you all know, I hit the
telephones and the pavement to retain and attract members.  I speak with
regional chairs to encourage them to increase their national memberships
--- but this body needs to be aware that it doesn't seem like a great
investment to the states that already have ballot access.  Those dollars
could be kept in their state.  I know some members vehemently disagree with
that point of view.  But it is there.
