Attention all able-bodied Libertarians not going to the National Convention: Let's help support the cause of Liberty right here in Michigan this Wedensday. With over 1 million people expected to attend, the Hart Plaza fireworks this Wedensday, this will the best place to be to collect signatures for the PRA 2000. There are less than 3 weeks left to put this measure to decriminalize marijuana on the November ballot so all of you who have been waiting to the last minute; this is the last minute! We are very close, so bring your clipboards and pens down to Hart Plaza this Wedensday and enjoy North America's largest fireworks display. I will be petitioning down near the fountain around 5 o'clock and there will be others around the place petitioning. Please come and help out.
Call me with questions (313) 565-4407.
Join us in a "post convention party" on Friday, July 7 at 7:00 p.m. at the LPM Headquarters, 619 E. Nine Mile Road in Hazel Park (between Dequindre and John R, on north side of road). Those who are attending the National LP's convention will be on Cloud 9 for several weeks and eager to talk about all that happened in Anaheim. So, if you can't wait to talk about it when you get home, we'll see you on July 7! And if you are unable to attend, but don't want to miss a thing, tune in to C-Span June 29 thru July 3 to catch the action, and then join us at HQ for more personal tales.
Speaking at the July 12 meeting of the Libertarians of Macomb County will be Richard Friend Libertarian candidate for US Congress, District 10. Richard Friend was born in the Port Huron, Michigan. He was adopted and raised in Dearborn, Michigan, resided in the State of Michigan all of his life, and has been a resident of Port Huron for over the past ten years. Richard Friend served a term of duty with the United States Air Force and honorably discharged in 1963. It was in 1967 that he completed his basic education and obtained his GED. In general, Richard advises that he obtained his education through life in general and considers himself to have attained a graduate degree in the school of "Hard Knocks". It was in 1996 that Richard was watching Harry Browne run his campaign for the presidency when he realized that the Libertarian Party was the only party that could accomplish the same things he was interested in. Up until then, Richard had been patiently waiting on the Republican Party to achieve liberty but that time has passed. They have failed to uphold the basis of the Constitution and failed to grant the American public it's freedoms. In 1997, Richard attempted to run for the City Council in Port Huron but was unsuccessful due to not getting the required signatures. Now, Richard is seeking the office of a United States Congressman in order to restore the liberties once held by the American public and to bring the government back under the reigns of the Constitution. The current system of government is made up of those who want to tell you what to do, where to send your children to school, what you can and can not do with your property, etc. Richard Friend and the Libertarian Party, are the only candidates that want to give you, the American public, back the responsibility for your own life and allow you to make your own choices for yourself and your family. The politicians currently in place are so removed from the wishes of the American people that it is time to get someone in who understands and is one of the American public. Richard Friend is R. Friend, Libertarian, for United States Congress. LMC meetings are held at Mile's World Restaurant 17689 Masonic (near Groesbeck), Fraser, MI 48026. Dinner will be available for $12.95 with a selection of five entrée items. Drinks are separate. Please join us 6:00 PM for dinner and 7:00 PM for business and an informative speaker.
The Committee to Elect Trafton Jean would like to thank the St. Clair County Libertarian Party for lending us their personal P.A. system for an important press conference. Working together is the only way we'll win! We owe you.
