I don't either if he can be removed from the offical post for
violating his membership pledge and still remain a member but I
don't see hpw that can be done. What he says in the debate maybe can
be used as evidence in the LP judicial committee of violating his
pledge. It would send a message to all of the other wayward officals
of the LP and the members holding political office they need to shape
up or ship out. If there is a stricter standard
towards
Barr should have thought of that before accepting the post.
If he was a regular member I don't think it would matter so much
although a pledge is a pledge, since I took the pledge I should
probaally should be kicked out too if I violated the pledge and
evidence can be shown that I have, there might be enough evidence to
do that if someone was willing to present the charges. In fact I
should volunterly quit but I think party leaders who have violated
the pledge should go before
me.
There are certain rules to a volunter group, rules in a political
party are especially important, the pledge is the base, the grounding
of the LP if members violate that pledge they should leave but most
of all the officals should leave and even more so the political
cadiadtes and office holders should leave. They can still donate to
the Lp if they want, they can still help the LP, the still can offer
advice to the LP they just can't be members unless there is some
procedure to allow them to recant and be offred a chance to rejoin in
the bylaws.--- In [email protected], "Susan Hogarth"
