        "Is there is an open-bid contract to do designs/marketing for LP
        National branding coming in September?  I’ve asked several
     Regional
        Reps already and have received conflicting answers.
        This is not about me as a vendor; it’s about transparency and
     fairness.
        There are a ton of talented designers and vendors out there whose
        experience and creativity would be a tremendous asset in the
     effort to
        advance the Party brand and give a much needed boost to outreach
        efforts.  With competition you increase interest, profit margins
     on
        merchandise, and open yourself up to a sea of talent.
     Circumventing
        this process seems counterintutive and a disservice to LP
     members, to
        the Party, to the brand and its message."
        Since similar questions/concerns are coming from multiple
     sources, and
        I myself am unfamiliar with how we are doing that, I thought it
     worth
        bringing up.
