I assume that your question is sarcastic, but for the record Bill Redpath is Chairman of the Libertarian Party of the United States. I wish I had learned that information before the convention.

It's not a matter of "allowing." You pays your filing fee, you shows up on the primary ballot, and if the voters choose you, you're the nominee. The CALP organization doesn't have anything to say about it one way or another (although I am pretty sure that Mr. Holtz is an active member and possibly an officer of the CALP). That's just the way it works. Of course, there are also states where the party DOES choose the candidate. For example, in Virginia a few years ago, the LP ran a candidate for governor who advocated gun control legislation: http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3b708e352923.htm Anyone know what ever happened to that guy?
