<div>Do we have access to the video archive of the meeting? Does
anyone have that link handy?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I had thought the purpose of the committee was, broadly, to
find out how we could boost our image through the modification
of wording and phraseology. As part of that, they would solicit
bids from political image consultants to determine a cost of
having them given their recommendations. I remember that during
discussion there was talk of not having to accept the bids, or
only accepting portions of bids, and that some work could be
possibly done internally. The LNC would still have to approve
any spending in that regard. And in my mind, I assumed that any
recommendations, whether from paid or unpaid sources, would have
to be run through APRC or the entire LNC prior to
implementation. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think clarification regarding the scope of this committee
would be a good idea. I am personally in favor of a committee
that works to fine-tune our messaging; that makes suggestions on
using words and phrases that soothe, rather than scare, the
public. These would be recommendations presented to the APRC
and/or the LNC, and not implemented officially until approve is
given from one or both of those. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have no doubt that <span>Messrs </span>Demerest, Sharpe,
Somes have the very best intentions in mind, and I just want to
be sure that everyone agrees to the scope NOW so there are no
hurt feelings later.</div>

<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family:

moved that the Libertarian National Committee
establish a committee to take bids from political
consultants for the task of extensively reviewing
and making recommendations for the Libertarian
Party's messaging (and modes of messaging),
inclusion in the debates, fundraising and campaign
finance, campaign mechanics, and state and local
affiliates. Said agency will agree to present
their findings to the public before December of
2017. The committee will take bids until the 10th
of January.</span></p>

style="font-family: tt17aco00; font-size: 10pt;">Ms.
Mattson made a motion which, following amendment
without objection, was to appoint the
just-approved committee to be three people,
comprised of Larry Sharpe, Trent Somes, and a
third person of their choosing.</span></p>
