The old APRC was targeted and improperly abolished by a group led by Starr and Sullentrupp to block the program committee and platform reform, seize the archives in APRC’s hands, and undermine the political director who was getting record people in office with APRC’s help. They then claimed the PC and APRC had done nothing when staff took their archives and ‘lost’ them, the fired the political director. Holtz has been putting out modified documents they seized ever since as LRC work product.

The APRC in the past reviewed or initiated key documents and language guidelines for staff that have been in place since the early ‘70’s. They were never in the business of approving time sensistive documents, that was the Chair’s job, ex officio a member of the APRC. But staff often consulted them, with a typical quick turnaround. And its supposed to have 4 people expert or activist in voluntaryism, anarchism/ minarchism, privatization and small government to see that the documents offer the public the range of Libertarian approaches. Is Jingozian an expert? Is Flood? I doubt it.

LRC and staff are creating another history re-write and red herring problem. Starr will do all he can to continue to keep Libertarians from getting in office and outrage activists. He’s not only in a position of control of the vanishing money but the key product. Ugh.

Whether he is fired or not, I certainly hope that egghead(Davis) is censured and has his fax machine priveleges revoked.

Having served as Executive Director of a state affiliate, there are times staff has to move quickly. Oversight can consist of the Chair or an LNC media designate, with accountability falling to that level—not staff.

Regardless of what message Davis puts out (or Cory put out for that matter), accountability falls to the Chair, Executive Committee and LNC members. A five person committee is completely unnecessary.

The LP headquarters staff should all be fired. The LP chair and treasurer should be impeached, and if indicted, replaced. There is a longstanding pattern going back to at least 1996 of interference by the LP HQ staff and some members of the LNC in the presidential nomination process. This disgusting corruption has driven many individuals, including myself, from the LP.

The LP headquarters should be moved from the Watergate building, 2600 Virginia Ave. NW - a building notorious for its role in the greatest political scandal in American history.

But, the problems with the LP are mainly in the area of what should be done not ever getting done.

I think both sides make good points. It’s a shame that Libertarians just can’t get on the same page and move forward. I hope that the battle is quick, regardless of who wins.

I believe that the five of us will be able to create an effective committee.
