I Got My Libertarian Party Card Today

from JoeUser Forums

As I blogged a few weeks ago, I was finally able to become a dues paying Libertarian. This was very important to me for reasons that will become clear over the next couple of years, but primarily because I feel it is important for third party members to pay dues when they are able so that they can advance the views of the party to which they adhere.

Well, today my card came in the mail. So, I am a "card carrying" Libertarian. While I have been a Libertarian for some time now, it's kind of neat to confer a sort of officiality to it all. When I run for the nonpartisan city council in our community next year, I will be able to do so proudly knowing that I am a  representative of my party as well as my community.

It wasn't about that, NJ...having the card is just public recognition of who I am.

In Nevada, you can register Libertarian. In Texas, you don't register to a specific party. That's part of the point, being on a "list" gives me better access to fellow Libertarians. Plus, there is the fact of paying dues and FINANCIALLY supporting my party to the best of my ability to help the party's growth, as well as my intended counsil run next year.

Anyway, thanks, all!
