True principled libertarians, are you seriously wondering and
deeply concerned about the future of the LP? Then, listen to this
interview with Christine.
You must hear this interview if you care, are concerned and ever
wondered about the future of the LP. Recorded and broadcast on Dec. 7,
2007, Christine was invited to again be a guest on Paul Molloy's
Freedom Works! radio show. According to the show website, their
broadcast covers 'more than 3,000,000 people in and around Tampa Bay,'
reaching listeners throughout the Clearwater-Tampa-St. Petersburg
Florida region on WTAN-AM 1340. The show was also simulcast online.
(We've just received the archive so are sharing it now.)
Her third appearance on the show, she was asked to discuss her opinion
on topics including the future of the LP, the LP leadership, the LP
presidential race, and her thoughts regarding Dr. Ron Paul. The LP -
party of losers? - party of principle? Or as Smith thinks, a party
comprised of many good true libertarians nationwide, but whose
leadership unfortunately has other agendas coming first rather than
focusing on achieving liberty? Be sure to listen to the entire show -
including the excellent commentary and discussion between Libertarians
Paul Molloy and Mike MG Gilson, which follows Molloy's interview with
Christine.
Note: Keep in mind this was recorded on Dec. 7, 2007 (prior to
Christine's decision to stay in the race). Thanks to all of you who
have given your support, Christine Smith's campaign has become stronger
than ever and she is going forward confidently to achieve the LP presidential
nomination in May. Listen Here
