Dear LNC,<br>
<br>
This certainly is NOT a well thought out idea.<br>
<br>
1. people who read political magazines typically have already chosen
a horse to ride.....and it ain't us.<br>
<br>
2. the demographic we need and want to pursue don't read magazines.
They read blogs and use Ipad's & Tablets.<br>
<br>
3. people to subscribe to political magazines, are already well
aware of the LP. Didn't anyone notice that the GOP tried, and in
some cases, succeeded in keeping our presidential team off of the
ballot. So, telling them we exists is really really redundant.<br>
<br>
4. what other worthwhile project is going to be cut to fund this
nutty idea? Or, who's going to raise money for this? BTW, not me!<br>
<br>
5. and BTW, the media is well aware of the LP and our positions.
They don't need to be "educated" about us.<br>
<br>
Nutty..............Mark Hinkle,<br>
LNC At-Large & Retired LP Chair<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText" style="margin-left:.5in">"Moved: The
amount of $50,000 is added to the existing approved amounts
for budget lines 4320 (Outreach – PR & Marketing) and
4030-10 (On-line Contributions – General) for advertising in
political magazines, split roughly evenly between
right-leaning and left-leaning publications, with a target of
3-4 1/4-1/3-page ad insertions per publication, with the exact
wording and design of the ad and selection of publications
left to the discretion of the Executive Director. The purpose
of such advertising is to raise awareness of our party and its
positions with the right and the left, especially in media
venues which frequently publish material critical of our
positions."<o:p></o:p></p>
