I'm a

voter and I'm telling you this is pointless, but at the same time encourage you to do it with every fiber of your body and every cent of your bank account.
Education isn't free.
 
I wrote up a reasonable start and can go back and edit if necessary. Here's what they require next:
Use this space to describe the group or individual sponsoring the petition. You can include a link to your web site by entering its address in the form: http://www.ipetitions.com
Up to 250 words. Required

What will we use for this field?
 
he's a dumbass who just fucked up any chance he had of getting ron paul supporters to vote for him.
that should be number one.

Even though he still signed on to Ron's 4 point program and Ron hasn't denounced him. :rolleyes:

Aside from you, Torchbearer, I'd like to see the naysayers LP membership. I'm willing to bet many of them were never or aren't members.

Well, you're right on me, but I intended to vote for Barr and was strongly contemplating joining the LP. I actually still am considering it depending on how they respond to this mess.
 
Wrong forum dude for this topic. Needs to be moved to "Other candidates". We're not the libertarian party to be organizing such an effort from RP grassroots central.
 
I think many of you are overreacting. Are you a perfect person? Have you not made any mistakes in your life? Of course, we all have. The point I'm trying to make is, don't tear someone down because they didn't act the way YOU wanted. If you think it's so easy, YOU TRY RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT!! Give these folks some slack and let them work out these issues. We need to work together and stay focused on the Liberty movement. If we destroy every candidate we don't like, we'll have no one to vote for!!

Agreed. Let the LP fix that problem if they so desire.
 
POTUS Ron Paul

All these independants drop out and join behind RP for president with given senior position e.g VP, secretary of state, defence, Attorney general etc.. Together they have a real chance of throwing a spanner in the New World order.
The Dutch media report your Navy is already on the way to the straits of Homuz to secure it following an attack on Iran be Israel. This is a potencially explosive situation and only wanted by a few lunatics. Somehow RP MUST not stop when he is the only possible candidate who can generate money and together they would cause a sensation in your managed media.

Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying. If you're so concerned about it, Join the LP become a delegate and elect YOUR candidate like the LP should have done in the beginning if they had such a problem with it. You just don't shortcut your way to the front of the LP, especially if you've never contributed a cent.

Read their first party plank...responsibility for your actions. Barr was elected fair and square, and they basically want to "impeach" him and he didn't even do anything yet!

In conclusion, LP can handle it and if you're not in the party stay out of their business.
 
Trying to catch up here -

As far as the wording of the petition - is it to BB or the LP? - I would think that that would define the wording.

e.g. A message to BB to step down, or to the LP to ask BB to step down?

Then, why? Loss of faith, wrong candidate, poor political/common sense??

Maybe start out like you were writing a letter to the target audience, and later make it more "petition like."

It probably needs to be very logical and reasoned in it's wording to be effective.

The wording on it thus far is to the LP for them to ask BB to step down. I definitely agree that it needs to be logical.
