reply. If that is the case, then I will simply set something up and make
sure that everyone on the LNC has access to it. At least to start, I
would like to ensure that it is LIMITED to members of the LNC only. This is
not to be secretive, but rather to ensure that we can build it up before
hearing an unlimited number of opinions on how to change it.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=3
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Opinions are not
especially useful for knowledge bases. What is useful is having
unrestrained access to rules, facts, and data that is otherwise spread all over
the place. Per my yard sign not having the word Libertarian on it, that
is indeed an opinion. Understanding the laws regarding font sizes, the
legal language about right of ways and things of this nature are not opinions
and rather facts about how it needs to work.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
</div>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=3
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Additionally I would
argue that since design work is no doubt very subjective that we should have a
variety of templates available to people. There need not be a homogeneity
to our processes, but it would be really useful if candidates (and others)
didn't need to waste time starting from scratch. That was the part I
found incredibly frustrating as a new candidate. As a business person, I
can tell you that it's mind-boggling to see a complete lack of process
documentation available. This is again what Kurt has largely worked to
create within <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Texas</st1:place></st1:State>
and I would advocate that we do it at a national level too.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

need not have opinions. It should have facts about what is available to
us. This kind of fact gathering would likely make our future decisions
much more valuable and of course turns us from discussing opinions to
discussing strategies. Meaning, if could historically show the time it
takes to get 10,000 signatures then we are better equipped to determine whether
or not to spend money on such a venture.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

of having a repository for information. One of the challenges to putting
something like that together is the vast differences of opinion on what ought
to be done.<br>
<br>
Imagine the section for planning LNC meeting:<br>
Opinion A: hold it someplace inexpensive for board members like OKC<br>
Opinion B: hold it someplace more expensive that will impressive people (NYC)<br>
Opinion C: hold it online instead of in person<br>
<br>
I think you can imagine other disagreements on other topics:<br>
<br>
Ballot access:<br>
Opinion A<br>
Opinion B<br>
<br>
Conventions:<br>
Opinion A (hold it on a cruise ship).<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
Running for office:<br>
Opinion A<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
In any case, there is a ballot access committee tasked with putting together
best practices for ballot access. And some places with repositories of info
that that is hard to keep up to date. Great ideas and goals to have overall.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

knowledge base together. My campaign team and I did our best to collect
everything we did and place it into a navigable Wiki so that other candidates
could use it. It's far from exhaustive, but it was a start and many other
candidates were able to use it. Incidentally Kurt Hildebrand has been
really good at creating those systems within LPTexas using our org-system.<br>
<br>
Anyway, if we don't have anything like it then I would be happy to setup
something like this for the LNC so that we're not relying solely upon email

predict (but I caution that my prediction could be off due to many factors such
as weather, competing petitions, validity issues, math or count errors, and
many other issues), but again, I currently predict we will finish around
January 15 plus or minus 10 days. So be sure to check back with me before
making concrete plans. See graph below.<br>

announce a check received for $20,000 to help finance a major quiz door hanger
distribution project in 2016. <br>
<br>
The check was hand delivered recently by Michael Chastain, of <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">Austin</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">Texas</st1:State></st1:place>.
Mr. Chastain also recently contributed $4,000 for <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Oklahoma</st1:place></st1:State> ballot access.<br>
<br>
I plan to do something similar to what we did in 2010:<br>
<a href="http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/lp-monday-message-help-reach-a-million"
target="_blank">http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/lp-monday-message-help-reach-a-million</a><br>

target="_blank">http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/quiz-across-america-door-hangers-5-per-100</a><br>
<br>
but this time, I want to do over a million door hangers. I can see having the
quiz on one side, and our presidential nominee on the other.<br>
<br>
In 2010, we also received a $20,000 check from a different donor to help
support door hangers. With the extra financing, we're able to sell them at five
cents each and waive shipping charges, rather than selling at 10 cents each
plus $5 shipping as we do now.<br>
<br>
For those of you new to the LNC, I've written separately, and will write more
in the future, about how the door hangers do much more than simply provide the
printed advertising benefits. They encourage local activity, etc. I'll write
more about it later. <br>
<br>
To me, this was an early Christmas present to the LP, but I certainly
understand others might see it differently:<br>
