Don't write in Ron Paul--buy him! Ron Paul and Norfed coins to support Libertarian US House candidate Scott Gesty

From the Gesty for Congress campaign:

Hello All:
I am happy to announce my 3rd and possibly final Fund Raiser for the 2012 campaign. This one is called : Gesty for Congress, Return to Sound Money Fund Raiser. This one should appeal to all those liberty minded individuals who believe that:

•As written in the Constitution, only Gold and Silver will only be legal tender

•Commodity backed money is a tool to constrain an ever proliferating federal government

•The Federal Reserve's interest rate manipulation and debasement of our currency is immoral and hurts savers and people on fixed incomes

I once again will tap into my personal collection to show my appreciation for your support of my campaign. This is how it will work:

•Any donation of $25 will receive a Ron Paul Commemorative Copper Coin

•Any donation of $50 will receive the Ron Paul Coin AND an Authentic Copper NORFED Liberty Dollar!

You can learn more about NORFED Liberty Dollars here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_Dollar
These coins are collectables only. They are not real money and can't even be used for barter.

And what is different about this fund raiser is, the more you contribute, the more coins you get! For every donation above $50, increased in $25 increments, will get another coin. So for example:

•A donation of $75 will get two Ron Paul Coins and one Liberty Dollar
•A donation of $100 will get two Ron Paul Coins and two Liberty Dollars
•A donation of $200 will get four Ron Paul Coins and four Liberty Dollars
I'm capping this at a donation of $250 which would give you 5 of each coin, for a total of 10 Coins.

And here is the Grand Finale if you will,,, If you Contribute $500 or more to my campaign, you will receive a rare Ron Paul Silver NORFED Liberty Dollar! These were minted and released just before NORFED was shut down by the federal government. I only have two of these in my possession. When they are gone, they are gone.

All these coins are encased in an air-tight plastic container and have not been touched by human hands (at least not mine anyway). The Ron Paul Copper and Silver coins are in brilliant uncirculated condition. The picture does not do them justice.

The NORFED Copper coins aren't as pretty due to their original composition and were probably exposed to air by the previous owner. But still, there won't be any more of these made, so they are nice for someone who either collects coins or just wants to hold a small piece of history.

The goal of this promotion is to raise enough money, along with what we have done in the past, to pay for campaign literature, campaign apparel for volunteers and a radio ad that will broadcast on a local radio station the week up to election day. So I encourage those who wish to support my campaign to take advantage of this fund raiser. This one will end Friday October 12th at 11:59pm. This will give me enough time to assess what funds we have and put it to work in time for it to have the biggest impact on November 6th.

To donate, visit my website: www.gesty4congress.org to use Paypal or checks can be sent to me; Scott Gesty, 1609 Windybush Rd, Wilmington DE, 19810. If you have any questions, please send me a message. If I think your question will help the masses, I'll update this thread.

For those who have already and continue to support me and my campaign, Thank You! I'll never be able to adequately express my appreciation for all you've done. For the new comers, here's your opportunity to help me show the two party douoploy that we are out there, we are legitimate, and we are NOT going away!

In Liberty,
Scott

A Libertarian Martin Luther King Jr. Day post

In which we travel into interesting waters . . . (for a fairly long trip, so be prepared) Dr. King's 1968 book, Where do we go from here: chaos or community? , is profound in that it criticizes anti-poverty programs for their piecemeal approach, as John Schlosberg of the Center for a Stateless Society [C4SS] observes: King noted that the antipoverty programs of the time “proceeded from a premise that poverty is a consequence of multiple evils,” with separate programs each dedicated to individual issues such as education and housing. Though in his view “none of these remedies in itself is unsound,” they “all have a fatal disadvantage” of being “piecemeal,” with their implementation having “fluctuated at the whims of legislative bodies” or been “entangled in bureaucratic stalling.” The result is that “fragmentary and spasmodic reforms have failed to reach down to the profoundest needs of the poor.” Such single-issue approaches also have “another common failing — ...

Libertarian National Committee Deathwatch Part 1

As the LNC continues to lurch towards collapse, with the latest news of mass layoffs at HQ, I've decided to begin tracking those things leading the national party to irrelevance, even as state and local parties gain power. As news, rumors and rhetoric break out, I shall chronicle them in this ongoing series at Delaware Libertarian. Organizations approaching failure have a number of characteristics. One of the most striking is renunciation of their purpose and effort to reinvent themselves as a "me-too" provider of services in the marketplace. In this, the LNC has been on a collision course with destiny for a while now. Recently, for example, it hired Republican Party web site developer TerraEclipse to redesign the LNC web site . Terra created a web site very similar to those of the clients it brags most about -- far-right Republican conservatives like Tom McClintock and BJ Lawson. A quick look at the web site they built for the LNC is instructive. The tagline on the ...

Soda tax debate reveals fundamental progressive assertions about your lack of individual rights and the "responsiblities" of the State

I thought it would be at least amusing to use the Delawareliberal comments as sub-headings regarding each category of what is wrong with the proposed tax on sodas and juice drinks. But there are so many different little strands of each comment that it would be impossible to pull them all out. So, instead, I'm going to let you read them in more or less the order they appeared, and note the assumptions. pandora: I’m perfectly okay with taxing sodas and juice drinks. Mainly because they’re total crap, and one of the main reasons our country’s children are overweight. They are also dirt cheap. Assumptions here: (1) Because "I" am perfectly okay with a new tax it should be imposed on everybody; (2) it is the government's responsibility to keep children from being obese; (3) the cheapness of the product to be taxed justifies charging people more for it. John Manifold: Soda fattens your kids [and you and your husband], shortens their lives, costs more than water [a...
