I hear everyone but I have to pointout that we are the national board for
the third largest political party in the US. That said, we only meet once a
quarter. Business cannot realistically be done only three months if we want
to see significant growth and empowerment of individuals, affiliates, and
candidates.
I say, keep the votes coming. If any member feels that they have something
we need to move forward with, I don't want them discouraged from an email
ballot. That is what the co-sponsorship requirement is all about.

I hear everyone but I have to pointout that we are the national board
for the third largest political party in the US. That said, we only
meet once a quarter. Business cannot realistically be done only three
months if we want to see significant growth and empowerment of
individuals, affiliates, and candidates.
I say, keep the votes coming. If any member feels that they have
something we need to move forward with, I don't want them discouraged
from an email ballot. That is what the co-sponsorship requirement is
all about.

This may sound like lecturing on my part, but a word of
advice
or
pleading to new LNC members. I understand your
enthusiasm for
getting
things done but, for the most part, motions proposed and
debated
by
email ballot should be few and far between. Please
consider if
what
youare proposing can be better done in about a 1/2 hour
at an
in
person
meeting and also the urgency of the need for your
proposal.
At this time I think we are voting on at least two
motions with
another
1/2 dozen in various stages of co-sponsoring or
revision. My
LNC
email
has so many threads that I can't keep them straight and
people
are
continuing discussion/argument on motions that are
already in
the
voting stage.
If you have interest in some matter that you think is
important
to the
future of the party, please form a working group for
discussion
off the
main LNC list then have a well thought out motion in hand
for
the
next
LNC meeting. Count noses before the meeting to see what
kind
of
reception your motion will get. Seek advice from those
not on
the LNC
to determine acceptance by the membership if appropriate.
It may also be presumptive on my party, but keeping our
Secretary
halfway sane and not overwhelmed with added work while
she is
adjusting
may not be a bad idea.
Of course, as Libertarians, you will do as you want but I
do
ask
for
your consideration!
