John, The 2024 Libertarian National Convention was truly historic. We generated more press coverage and created more potential partners in the political sphere than ever before in our mission to Become Ungovernable in DC. While our invited speakers and elected nominees will be topics of conversation for years to come, there is something for everyone to be excited about as we move forward. Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
spoke before our Vice Presidential Debate, which was followed by remarks from Vivek Ramaswamy and a debate between Vivek and Clint Russell. We've never been involved in a debate that was more relevant, or popular. Clint and Vivek both spoke intelligently, making clear where they agreed and disagreed. Rather than attack GOP straw man talking points, Clint defended our principles against the best the GOP has to offer and came out on top in front of the world's top press. This should be viewed as an absolute win. Help us continue to win the war of ideas with a donation today>>> Saturday's address from Donald Trump was also a successful endeavor. We secured a commitment from him to Free Ross Ulbricht and to put a libertarian in his cabinet, while also making it clear where we disagree with him. Only time will tell whether he follows through. Regardless, we should celebrate the shifting of the Overton Window toward our causes.

In the end, delegates nominated Chase Oliver for President and Mike ter Maat for Vice President. This ticket presents a fantastic political opportunity for the party. Joe Biden was the only major candidate to give us the cold shoulder and to not publicly commit to freeing Ross. He is also horrible on foreign policy. Chase has the opportunity to make Joe Biden pay for not taking Libertarians seriously by taking votes from the
anti-war left. I will do everything in my power to ensure Chase has all the resources he needs to maintain our strong polling presence, and to pull protest votes from the left in areas that will hurt Biden the most. Help us defeat Joe Biden in November with a donation today >>> Some of you reading this may be asking "What impact can the Libertarian Party make in such a crowded race?" The answer is simple: We are the
most powerful voting bloc in the country right now, and we have enough influence to set Ross Ulbricht free. We have more political leverage than ever before, and we are moving this country in a Libertarian direction. More than just spoilers, we are now also fixers. After reading our list of demands, Donald Trump committed to Freeing Ross Ulbricht, abolishing the Department of Education, and putting a Libertarian in his cabinet. RFK Jr. also committed to Freeing Ross Ulbricht and has made major improvements to his messaging to appeal to libertarians, as well. By keeping a good relationship with him, we can help our down-ballot candidates
nationwide retain ballot access in their states. By targeting disgruntled Biden supporters on the issue of war with Chase's campaign, we positively affect the 2024 Presidential election in numerous ways. |
