                          <br>
                          Here's a way to promote Libertarianism AND get
                          very positive feedback from the public.<br>
                          <br>
                          Keep reading to learn how to join me and
                          Libertarians nationwide this July 4th to
                          promote freedom in your city or neighborhood.<br>
                          <br>
                          I doubt you can find another outreach activity
                          that will give you as much immediate positive
                          feedback as handing out free copies of the
                          Declaration of Independence at neighborhood
                          parades and fireworks shows on Independence
                          Day.<br>
                          <br>
                          People love it.<br>
                          <br>
                          When you say "Hi, would you like a free copy
                          of the Declaration of Independence?" almost
                          everyone will smile, take the copy, and say
                          "Thank you!"<br>
                          <br>
                          In fact, people often run up to me after I've
                          given them one and ask me for more copies!<br>
                          <br>
                          One person can hand out 500 in a big crowd in
                          about two hours. If you <a
                            moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=59142716&msgid=512708&act=41BX&c=1115108&destination=http%3A%2F%2Flpstore.org%2Fdeclaration-of-independence%2F">order
                            500</a>, we'll include a free Libertarian
                          drawstring backpack to help you carry them.<br>
                          <br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://lpstore.org/declaration-of-independence/">http://lpstore.org/declaration-of-independence/</a><br>
                          <br>
                          We've posted a downloadable version of the
                          Declaration of Independence that you can print
                          on your own. However, you can save time and
                          money, and get good-looking durable copies, if
                          you order them from us. I'm not exaggerating
                          when I say that the high-quality full-color
                          glossy copies we'll send you are ten times
                          more durable than home-printed copies, which
                          is especially important for handing out on a
                          hot, humid day!<br>
                          <br>
                          Handing out Declarations is a tradition
                          started by Libertarians in Travis County,
                          Texas in 2004.<br>
                          <br>
                          From past reports: "[we] handed out 1,500 in
                          Austin between 7:00 and 8:30 PM at the
                          Auditorium Shores park where people gathered
                          for the fireworks show. Most people we handed
                          these to were sitting on chairs or blankets
                          waiting for the fireworks to start and in
                          general seemed quite eager to take a copy...."<br>
                          <br>
                          "I handed out 150+ at San Marcos Plaza Park,
                          by walking the grounds waiting for the
                          fireworks to start. I asked if I could give
                          them a 4th of July gift and only one person
                          said no. By having the privilege of presenting
                          the Declaration I also made two contacts to
                          come and speak to their group."<br>
                          <br>
                          The back of the sheet says, "This
                          transcription of the Declaration of
                          Independence has been provided as a public
                          service by the Libertarian Party. <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.LP.org">www.LP.org</a>".<br>
                          <br>
                          I've distributed these Declarations several
                          times myself, including in 2013 in Baton
                          Rouge, Louisiana. People loved it there, as
                          they seem to everywhere. That's why I say this
                          is probably my favorite Libertarian activism.<br>
