<p dir="ltr">My suggestions:</p>
<p dir="ltr">1. A broad economic liberty piece. <br>
2. A broad civil liberties piece. <br>
3. A broad piece regarding freedom "across the board." <br>
4. 2nd Amendment piece (for gun show outreach) <br>
5. Campus freedom piece (for on-campus outreach) <br>
6. An "open for business" piece tailored toward the issues faced by small business owners. <br>
7. A Spanish language piece (possibly just a translation of #3 above) <br>
8. A Spanish language piece specific to issues important in the Hispanic community (immigration/freedom of movement, economic opportunity, "flex your rights") <br>
9. A "No Cronies" piece in opposition to cronyism</p>
<p dir="ltr">I'm sure I could come up with more, but I think these would be a good start, covering many topics and offering some literature specific to some of our most popular outreach activities. </p>

I hope all is well with you. As usual it was nice to see you in Orlando last weekend. I have enclosed below some suggestions regarding topics for LP outreach literature. I hope you find these suggestions worthy of your consideration. I apologize that I was unable to send my suggestions sooner; during the past week I have been swamped with faculty duties, along with my duties to other libertarian organizations.<br>
<br>
As always, thanks for your work for liberty. Best wishes to you and your loved ones for a wonderful Thanksgiving.<br>
<br>
Take care,<br>

Suggestions regarding topics for LP outreach literature:<br>
<br>
I believe we should develop material (including flyers/pamphlets) concerning the following topics (listed in no particular order of importance):<br>
<br>
1) American foreign policy (ending activities which are hideously immoral, horribly counterproductive, extraordinarily expensive, and/or blatantly unconstitutional)<br>
<br>
2) Health care and insurance (moving to a truly free market in both health care and insurance)<br>
<br>
3) "Crony capitalism" (ending the ability of governments to play favorites in various ways)<br>
<br>
4) The increasingly predatory nature of the law enforcement/judicial system (e.g., police brutality, generating revenue for the state via heavy fines for minor offenses, civil asset forfeiture, pre-trial seizure of defendant assets)<br>
<br>
<br>
There are many other topics about which we should develop outreach material. My gut feeling (based upon a fair amount of seat-of-the-pants empiricism) is that outreach material concerning the topics listed above would give us the best return on investment over the near term. One topic about which I may be able to offer specific suggestions for outreach material concerns what I view as the increasing pettiness of government involvement in our lives.<br>
