[Lnc-business] Fwd: Confidence in LNC restored

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

Since a criticism lodged was about distraction from candidates- expect
letters from candidates who have expressed that it kept them in the race
because they could point to national leaders repudiating this.

If you don’t think association with communism will come out and bite our
candidates in the ass, well....

I know that not everyone cares about the sheerly ideological points but
rather are election focused.

How is welcoming communists and looting business owners going to help us at
the polls??

It isn’t.

     Hello my name is Michael Cordova I am a Libertarian party member
     from
     Albuquerque New Mexico.
       Last week after much consideration I renewed my membership to the
     Libertarian party
       I had recently let my membership lapse for several months trying
     to
     figure out where I belong, due to the recent run for national chair
     by a
     self proclaimed socialist as well as rhetoric from the libertarian
     socialist caucus. I had lost hope that I belonged in the LP. I do
     not
     support "bottom unity" and fail to understand how socialism of any
     kind
     is compatible with the LP.
        I am writing this e-mail because several members of the LNC have
     stepped up and spoken out against socialism and what I consider an
     attempted socialist takeover.
       I would like to personally thank:
     Caryn Ann Harlos & Joshua Smith
     They both have renewed my confidence in the LP leadership and have
     giving me hope for the future of the party.
       I can now tell my friends and family who were hesitant to join the
     party due to the ties to left wing economic policies like Medicare
     for
     all and ideas like rent is theft and capitalism is murder, that
     those
     ideas and policies do not represent me nor the Libertarian party.
       Thanks again.
           Michael Cordova
