Caryn Ann Harlos

Fri Jan 19 22:04:02 EST 2018
I quote our Bylaws:
ARTICLE 2: PURPOSES
The Party is organized to implement and give voice to the principles
embodied in the Statement of Principles by: functioning as a libertarian
political entity separate and distinct from all other political parties or
movements; moving public policy in a libertarian direction by building a
political party that elects Libertarians to public office; chartering
affiliate parties throughout the United States and promoting their growth
and activities; nominating candidates for President and Vice-President of
the United States, and supporting Party and affiliate party candidates for
political office; and, entering into public information activities.
That Bylaw defines our purpose and it DOES NOT say what this Motion says
"is primary." We have ONE purpose.: to implement and give voice to the
principles embodied in the Statement of Principles with MANY EQUAL ways to
do so.

I challenge the motion on those grounds and ask for a ruling of the
Chair.
We cannot in motions redefine the primary purpose of the Party which is
NOT that and was VOTED DOWN last convention.

Colour me not particularly pleased. Everyone should have a chance to
argue their case.
Please don’t force my hand to co-sponsor the other one in order to
protect Region 1’s rights.
