Advocating violence!?!? In that case I wouldn't advise you bothering to show up to the event, I'll ensure you are ejected from the premises immediately.

Hey I hear the TSA is hiring... you wouldn't happen to know anything about that flyer urging people to call the police if Adam showed up at the rally/afterparty, would you?
 
If you really want to make a difference on the ground and impact elections in the liberty movement, these conventions are an outstanding resource. I attended the YAL convention and the training we received there was nothing short of spectacular. The LPAC convention's training features many of the same political experts who came to YAL, so I can tell you first hand that this WILL improve your capacity to make a difference and I'd certainly recommend LPAC.

Judging from some of the people who tout these conventions as the end all be all, it appears from reading these forums that all they are really teaching people is how to shit on grassroots activists.
 
"If you go to LPAC you can get a private briefing with Senators DeMint and Lee."

How much?

Here's the perfect example of the degeneration of a revolution, the raising of money off of it. You don't get "private" briefings from U.S. Senators for nothing.

If you and the other "officials" want to use these forums as your own ATM for the "campaign" , I think that's serious grounds for banishment. I hope some of the moderators feel the same way.

$500 a head for a one hour briefing. 20 seats available.

I'll only respond by saying that these are people have won more elections then I have been around for. It's one thing to sign wave, or attend rallies, or even phone bank from home, but what these guys teach is how to really win elections for liberty candidates and help organize others for that intention. I sincerely hope that you take advantage and attend LPAC

What exactly does my money buy?

Be very specific because the cost of this "wonderful experience" is greater than 2 months mortgage all things considered.

Contributing to Rons presidential bid is one thing but before I even think about turning loose of one red cent I need to know exactly what I'm buying.

Sell me Mr. Salesman.........
 
If DeMint was truly concerned about the cause of liberty he would grown a pair and endorsed Ron during the primaries.

He blows with the wind.
 
Well sir, what I am talking about is the grassroots training (which you can buy a 1 day ticket to that is much less expensive) which is put on by Mike Rothfeld and Kirk Shelley. Now, I cannot speak to Shelley, but I learned more about politics in a 2 hour lecture from Rothfeld then in 2 years of political science courses. He breaks down the real nature of politics and how liberty activists can use these basic animal instincts politicians have to our advantage. Rothfeld said that political success is determined by the number and effectivenessof the political activists on either side, and that is the basis of his program. Linked below is his lecture from the YAL convention, and you can see for yourself the basis of my opinion. I encourage ALL of you to watch this!

Training sessions like this are incredibly valuable. Nonetheless there are some who will find any reason they can to shit all over the work of others. There are those that do something and then there are those who only talk about doing something.

For those who are the "doers", LPAC is an excellent resource for you.

Sure, just foot the bill for my expenses and I'll be happy to attend.

Here's a thought, if you want to advertise this "experience" why don't you do so and pay for a web ad and help RPF pay its bills instead of trying to get free advertising for "private briefings with U.S. Senators" at $500 a pop?

You're becoming bad as Conservative INC. Got a book or a tie you want to sell me too to help the "cause"?

I've got news for you, a lot of people around here don't have a lot money to paying for private briefings with U.S Senators. Some of that money they actually gave to you fellows to run Presidential campaign. Right now some of that money is sitting in bank vault somewhere doing nothing but making you fellow look good because you're campaign is "debt free." And now you want more.

As I said, I think solicitations like this should be grounds for banishment. Go peddle someplace else or at least pay for it like everyone else.

It takes money to run an organization, you should be greatful that these guys are willing to help a liberty organization like CFL raise funds.
If DeMint was truly concerned about the cause of liberty he would grown a pair and endorsed Ron during the primaries.
He practically did. Do you not remember all the praise he said about Ron?

Do the proceeds go to Demint's SCF, C4L or some other organization? If the proceeds go to the generic Republican Party in any way, shape or form, I suggest a boycott.
Ron Paul's Campaign for Liberty
I just wonder why someone with Jim DeMint's voting record is even attending a liberty function. Is this what we can expect for the future of the Liberty movement?
It's called coalition building, he is with us on many of the fiscal issues, and he is coming around to us on the foreign policy issues.
 
I'm not sure if you are responding to my post, to Matt Collins post or to the ad itself.....but I don't work for C4L if that's what you are implying. I'm a grassroots activist just like you.
