I've been an activist for years and have won the lights of liberty award 4 times for outreach. I've setup outreach booths at raves with as many as 45,000 people, I've spent a great deal of my own money on campaign or party donations, conventions, printing materials, etc. I've walked districts, worked on several campaigns including 3 presidential campaigns, I've run for 3 different offices...including Congress which I'm running for right now, I've read hundreds of books on libertarian thought and philosophy, I've written hundreds of articles, I've posted hundreds of thousands of times in dozens of messageboards, I've served as the county chair for the largest county in America, and served on the state Ex-Com for the state with the greatest number of registered and dues paying libertarians where I fought tooth and nail against the people who are trying to sell out our principles in the name of growth because they lack any principles and have no grasp of what it means to be a real libertarian, I helped get a last minute anti-war resolution passed when these same non-libertarians on the California Ex-Com shot down all the others and thought they had won, I have worked on several issue campaigns including the Gray Davis recall effort and medical marijuana laws, I've registered thousands of people over the years as libertarians, and gotten several dozen to join the party, I've been willing to put my reputation on the line and to be considered an asshole by many in the party (some who are even libertarian) because I care more about doing the right thing and shining a bright light on the underhanded and dirty dealings of those trying to wreck the party, and I've even been arrested while standing up for civil rights for the party. In fact as far as I know, I'm the ONLY person to ever be arrested at the annual tax day protest, and despite the chairman of CA calling civil rights activists "whiners" and trying to silence my story, the word was spread and the district attorney dropped the case after I dared him to let it go to court because he knew I would win.
I've also gone through a lot of personal hardships, lost friends, and gotten in serious fights with friends, co-workers, and family over libertarianism. What have you done? I've never even heard of you. --- In [email protected], doug craig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > How many people on this list have actually done work > toward liberty.(and sending emails back and forth do > not count).I know allot of people get excited on these > list.
