<br>
Thank you for writing to members of the Libertarian National Committee. However, the chances that this committee will dump Gary Johnson from this year's presidential ticket in October 2016 are vanishingly small, and if we did, the chances that we'd replace him with someone whom none of us seem to have heard of, who did not participate in our party's nomination process, and who for all we know may not even be a member of the Libertarian Party, just because she wrote to us out of the blue and told us she'll get 15% of the vote, etc., are basically zero.<br>
<br>
Surely you can understand that it would not be in the interests of the Libertarian Party or the cause of freedom for us to operate that way, any more than it would be in your interests for you to entrust your savings to someone who came up to you randomly on the street and promised you she could get you 15% interest on your money!<br>
<br>
But if you do believe in the cause of minimum government/maximum freedom and want to help, we welcome your support and there are lots of ways to get involved. You might contact your state or local chapter (you can look them up at <a href="http://www.lp.org/states" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.lp.org/states</a>) and attend a local meeting or two for a start. If (as I gather from your message may be the case) you are already running for president as an independent, you can use that soapbox to speak out about government abuses, including the rigged, undemocratic elections process in this country that harms all alternative candidates and parties. The way things stand, it would be virtually impossible, even if the most desirable candidate in the world came along and offered to be our nominee, to get him or her on the ballot in all the states now, due to the complex ballot access rules.<br>
