[Lnc-business] FW: Seeking Endorsement

[Elizabeth Van Horn]

Hmm, If I'm understanding Mr. Nelson, he's running as a Republican.  
While I can see that there may be reasons for doing so, I don't think 
the Libertarian Party should endorse those who are running as candidates 
for other political parties.  I don't think it remiss to wish him well, 
as clearly there are people who run as candidates for other political 
parties, who also embrace libertarian ideas. But, I'm not in favor of 
the LNC endorsing Republican candidates.
