<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><font
size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>So I have as of
this morning already gotten at least 2 complaints about what I understand is a
recent post on the National LP Facebook page . While I absolutely
do not support <st1:place w:st="on">Rand</st1:place>..and I think the
Paul’s staff is less desirable than a rock sandwich, Ron Paul has done a
lot to promote libertarianism. Many of us would not be here if it were not for
him. To equate, the Paul’s with the Clinton’s and Bush’s is
misguided at best. One of the people that complained is from my own local
executive committee and he had planned to become a national dues paying member
and has specifically stated he will not be doing so now. In fact that was what
he specifically contacted me this morning to say because of this. It’s
the bad judgement calls that people controlling our social media continue to
make that is significantly hampering our ability to recruit. And at the very
least it cost us $25…but I have a feeling it cost us a lot more than
that. I am sure there are some that maybe like this..but this is such a
clear net loser for us…I just have to scratch my head at what people were
thinking. I have the original “picture” and also a picture one of
the people that complained to me posted. We just can’t get out of our own
way..I realize someone will alway be unhappy, but there are some things that
just are so clearly bad, but we did them anyway.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
