I see the delegation chairs are gathering the ballots. Have something i want to read to you that is a little bit on a down note. I just need to find it in my email. While we were gathered here in a great libertarian from the state of arizona, my delegation, mr. Powell gamel, passed away. We can go with the yeah until you hear the rest of the sentence. Was a many time candidate for the Libertarian Party of arizona. He was a friend to the arizona Libertarian Party. If you will indulge me for just my emaili will find from my state chair, mr. Kill ski is actually in front of me. Gamel took a fall at his home and passed away on tuesday. He was a member of freedoms phenix. Com and his prior here was head of arizonas. Icrobiology laboratory he was a congressman from 2006 2 2008, 2010, 2012, and 2014. Campaign, he12 gained fame by urging voters to not even vote and then earning nearly seven percent of the vote in a hotly contested threeway race which exceeded the difference between the other candidates. In the 2014 election, the Democratic Party paid for mailers supporting pals run in a cynical and misguided attempt to help their own candidate. In recent weeks, powell had been excited about his upcoming run for congress because not only had he run into thousand 6, and 2014, he was going to run again in 2016. He was a good and honest man. It a great example of what means to be of no compromise libertarian. We all miss his wit and charm on the campaign trail. For june 5schedule in scottsdale, arizona. [applause] i want to remind the delegation chairs that when they get there ballots, they should let their tellers vote. Tellers do get to vote. Is mr. Hayes in the room . Room. Somewhere in the just a moment. This is your convention so i want to ask. Are balloting, with the indulgence of the body, i would like to bring up somebody to speak for 20 minutes. Is that ok . Sounds like mostly yes. He is moving towards the stage. Theuld like to bring up gentleman i had an opportunity to meet in freedom fest in 2014. He was kind enough to give me a copy of his book entitled on hurt people and dont take their stuff. The plane flying backandforth and forth to Libertarian Party state conventions all around the country and i have stolen the title for a lot of my interviews. Dr. Pack oh, do you have a privilege motion . Microphone two very quickly. Ballots thaton the none of the above is not listed as a candidate. Chair. Wanted to ask the munn of the above is a candidate in every libertarian election ever. Upstage him by mentioning none of the above but i would like to mention mr. Met matt mr. Hi. Y name is matt i am a republican i am a recovering republican. Courage to come up here and admit that to you guys but i feel like we are in a safe space. I am feeling sensitive. I am feeling like a snowflake. Frankly, i am feeling a little bit used and abused. , and imeciated feeling kind of dirty about it. Years, i have worked within the Republican Party. I have actually worked for the Republican National committee. Years, every four gets, you would start to all of these calls and all of these letters, eventually you would get tweets and Facebook Facebook posts and it sounded awesome. Republicans love to talk about liberty. Promises all sorts of during the courtship process, right . They will tell you honestly, time, we, honest, this will defend the constitution. Time, forget the last time, but this time, we are going to support your Civil Liberties and your freedom of speech and all of those values that we talk about all the time in recording your vote. You know it is not true. Ou know what they are up to you know what they want. But you still do it. You probably had a couple drinks at this point. , the future ofg this country is so important and liberty is so precious and we are in such big trouble with the growingebt, and power of the states in the intrusions of the permanent imperial presidency, weve got to do something. Weve got to do it. Youve got three cocktails and they are telling you no really, this time i am going to do it. And the next morning, you wake up next to bob dole. Over and you realize just like groundhog day, you wake up and you realize youve over andsame thing over again, hoping just may be that this time it will turn out different. But it is no different. You wake up feeling dirty and used. It feels like a one night stand because the day after an election, they never call. They dont write. All those facebook posts stop and all of a sudden, they are doing exactly what they did the and time you got drunk voted republican. Am i wrong . [applause] are there any other republicans . We are in a safe place. We can admit this now. Ive been a libertarian my entire life. Was 13 years old, i bought an album by this band called rush. [applause] called 2112 and i am of a certain age where you used to buy these things on this ancient thing called a record. Does anyone remember records . Back in the day, you would put that vinyl record on the player and you would read the lighter i was reading about this story about this abuse of authoritarian benevolent dictatorship that was crushing the Creative Soul of someone that wanted to be tree. What does it say . Of imed to the genius brand. Of ayn rand. D wasnt know who ayn ran but i happen to see one of her books, a copy of anthem so old that Atlas Shrugged wasnt even listed as other books she had written. I devoured it. I sought out everything she had written. It was difficult to do because theseese instant ancient institutions called bookstores and it was hard to find a book. It was particularly hard to find a book about liberty. But eventually, i read enough that she recommended austrian economics. This point, i am 16 years old, i am reading human action and it is the worst possible way in the world to meet girls. [laughter] digging when not they are 16. That has changed. I went to grow city college and i discovered by accident that there was a professor who had studied under him at grove city and i discovered i was not the only libertarian in the entire ,niverse, that there was perhaps, dozens of us around the world. It was a revelation. Compare my accidental experience with liberty with young people today. If you want to know what libertarianism is today, you probably saw a ron paul give a speech on youtube or maybe you are watching the convention and you google it. You dont have to wait for your professor to tell you that liberty matters. You dont have to wait for three tv networks are used to tell you what to think to tell you that there was an alternative from the twoparty duopoly the republicans and the democrats, that constantly dictated from the top down what it is that we were allowed to believe, what it is we were allowed to stand for. Today, you can just google it. This is why we speak of the libertarian moment. This is why things are different today in a fundamental way because nobody gets to tell us what to believe anymore. [applause] you are young person today, you live in a radically libertarian world. You choose everything, you curate your friends, you choose your job, if you dont like your boss, you ditch him and find another job online. If you dont like what Mainstream Media is telling you, you curate knowledge and information for multiple sources the a or friends on twitter. You choose everything. You even curate your institutions in a way that wasnt possible when i was a kid. This is why the Republican Party is collapsing before our very eyes. Why a thirdparty could be viable on the National Stage for the first time in my lifetime. [applause] let me suggest to you that the challenge we have as abuse republicans, as lifetime libertarians, as Liberty Party activists, is to understand just how big are potential community gets. We are no longer a cadre of people meeting in basements reading the foot hook the footnotes from human actions. We are speaking to millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions of eyeballs across all nations, across all government barriers, in a way that suggests for the first time liberty could be the majority in the United States. [applause] weve got to think about things differently. That theo appreciate political spectrum that you and i were taught in high school, you know the one, where on the far right you have fascism which is nativist and authoritarian and a really bad thing and on the far left, you have socialism and communism which is, according to your professor wasnt nearly so bad but that they, this idea state would wither away was naive and hopeless. It felt better what it it felt better but it wasnt so good. That never made sense to me because in reality, all of those evil isms, fascism, socialism, communism, any form of authoritarianism, it all belongs on one side of the spectrum. We have no better representations of that today then a Republican Donald Trump and democrat hillary clinton. Can we even tell the difference . On the other side, it is liberty. Community. People coming together to solve problems through voluntary cooperation and doing things none of us could have done by ourselves altogether. Matt. E is. Am a republican but i am thinking about this liberty thing. I am thinking about the moments where we might come together as a community and appreciate that liberty is not just about freedom. A responsibility that we all see when we look in the mirror in the morning. You are worried about the future of your country. You are worried that not enough threat oferstand the big governments, the potential of freedom to solve problems. Weve got to come together. Voluntary cooperation. Do things weve never done before. This because ultimately, i believe that all of us should be free as long as we dont hurt people or take their stuff. Thank you very much. [applause] can we have a wrong of applause a round of applause . [applause] microphone two, please. Thank you mr. Chair. I am state assemblyman john miller. I would like to thank for bringing to light the alarming rate our veterans are committing suicide. We areather here and being covered by various national and International News outlets, the one thing i do not see anywhere, where are the colors for our great country . Why are they not being displayed in this hall . I dont necessarily have a way to answer the gentlemans point information. The Convention Oversight committee has done the setup for the hall and those were design decisions i delegated out and it is what it is. Thank you. Microphone two. I would like to make a motion to suspend the rules. I am rachel mill from north carolina. Motion to suspend the rule to consider a resolution see. For five minutes . Can you read your resolution . It has been brought to my attention the point of order is not in order at this time. You have to wait for in between a vote. Thank you. Any other points of information . Does everybody have the ballots . Do all state delegation chairs have the ballot . If anyone doesnt, you have to come get it. Daniel. Ok. Hey need to come up would the delegation chairs for south dakota and louisiana please go to the secretaries assistant desk to pick up the balloting packet. Point of order. Microphone number three. Mr. Chair, isnt the motion to suspend the rules always in order . Not during balloting. During the taking of a vote it is not in order. Delegation chairs throughout the day, if you turn in tallies, make sure you write down a copy of the numbers that you turned in. When we display them on the screen, that gives you a way to double check that we have accurately recorded what you turned in. Please keep copies of all the numbers that you turn in. Thank you. With the indulgence of the of the body, i would like to bring up a candidate for Nevada State Senate to strict seven, Kimberly Shang to address the delegates. Good morning everyone. I hope everyone is awake and excited. Like he said, Kimberly Shang from nevada running for state senate. Now, when i was younger, a few decades ago, i wont tell you how long that is because it is impolite to ask a lady her age. But i was a very introverted child. I couldnt wait to get home after marching band practice to open a book and listen to music. Eventually, along the way came a great invention called facebook. For an introvert like me, that didnt want to speak to people, facebook was amazing. Of the best things for politics is facebook, so i would get on there and debate all the time. At 1. I became a democrat who had one single issue just like most of america and i would fight for that issue. One day, i voted to get gay. Arriage because as a homosexual, i thought this was an issue i wanted to fight for. The Supreme Court gave me my right to marry. [applause] eventually, after i got not marry anddid still am not married and that is not an invitation, i am just trying to make a point. I like that, im not ready to shackle myself just yet. I realized there was something missing. That the wars were still happening, we were still in debt and there was a hollowness. I got disillusioned and i didnt want to deal with politics. One day iran into a group of people i told that told me iout libertarianism and thought wow, it didnt matter what your position or issue was. There was something about it, there was freedom, there was liberty. All of a sudden, i had Something Else to talk about on facebook and so ive go around talk typing that all of my former Democrat Friends and i found out they didnt want freedom or liberty. Out i was typing it to them and thats why they didnt understand. I went to the nevada Libertarian Party. Run as a stateto senator because i figured the best way to spread liberty and freedom is to actually enact legislation that would give People Freedom and liberty because action is the best way to show people. You can tell them and type of them all you want. But they need to see it and feel it. For such an introverted person who is becoming more of a next extrovert, i think all of us need to step out. It doesnt matter who you are, we all need to step out in some way because at this point in am tired for talking and its time for action. [applause] thank you, miss shang. I have a point of information given to me off of the floor. I am aware there is at least one delegation that is waiting to begin voting until the names of the candidates are shown on the screen. As a technical matter, that is not possible at this time. Secretarys screen is dedicated to tallying the ballots of the people who have turned the men turned them in. I would be happy to read the names and i would ask the delegation chairs who need the names for their delegates to write them down. Does everyone have a pen and a paper . Good. First ballot for president has on it dr. Mark alan feldman. Gary johnson. John a mcafee. Kevin mccormick. Darrell perry. Austin peterson. Leave writings. No it has not been written on the form, none of the above. I announced mr. I asked mr. Kenneth a varley to find his delegation chair. Arizona is stage right. Microphone number two. Point of information. Is there a more efficient and secure way of voting than writing on index cards and turning him into a person . Maybe. But this is the way we do it. Is block chain a thing that works . Maybe we will look into that for the next time. Microphone number one. No. Not yet. Any other points of information . I have a point of information. Bobby scott, delegation chair of vermont. None my understanding that order please, need your the woman from vermont. I have not checked the bylaws, it was my understanding that no. Is always support no is always a choice. It is not on the it has not been printed. It is an error in the ballot votesbut we will accept for none of the above like we do in every election. Microphone number one. Go ahead. The michigan delegation in the chair of michigan expressly had any believe that ohio hijacked that truck that was blocking for michigan. We dont believe it. It may be true, but we dont believe it. Ic microphone number four. Nathan gray vote. From the colorado delegation. Do we have to use the white notecards that we were given by oursecretary, or can we use own ballots if the delegation chair allows for it . Be delegation chair is allowed to use whatever balloting method the delegation chair chooses, but the ballot form that needs to be turned into the secretary is the yellow form distributed. Thank you. If the av guys have a picture that was provided to them of dr. Feldman and mr. Mullen. If they could pop it up on the screen. I dont know if they have that queued up. To, was there someone seeking to be recognized . I guess not. Libertarians helping somebody. [applause] if you want to go up and thank dr. Feldman personally for helping out, he is right there. Right behind alabama. [applause] microphone number two. Im a delegate from colorado. Either point of information. I had a question, will all the candidates, even the ones that dont reach the threshold have their name read off or put on the screen at all . They will not. The only candidates whose names i read out are those who met the threshold. Thank you. Was a candidate for president . I voted form. The secretary to count writings. I believe we do. Informationints of or privileged motions . Microphone number two, please. Mcmillan from new york. A little bit of historical information. Conventions, the first when i attended in 1979, the flags were not displayed on the stage. During the 80s and into the 90s, they were. And convention during the 1990s , a delegate from california pointed out that libertarians pledge allegiance to principles and not necessarily to flags. So it all due respect to our veterans, i would just like to make that statement. Thank you for the point of information, sir. Microphone number one. I have an announcement from the Libertarian Party of connecticut. We have a couple of bumper stickers we designed that would like others to use. , theays legalize pot others is fight fire with water. Vote libertarian. If you contact us, we will hook you up with some. Libertarian party of connecticut. Contact theke to connecticut delegation, they are stage center on the righthand side. We had them on her website but we had to redo it. Thank you. Hayes find his way to the right of my stage at some point . Any other points of information or announcements at this time . Without objection, while we are balloting, i would like to introduce the next governor of the state of indiana, mr. Rex l. Bell [applause] greetings and salutations fellow libertarians. It is a great honor to be up here. I am theentioned, libertarian candidate for the great state of indiana. Year, we that this have the greatest opportunity ever to advance libertarianism because of all these great with thembined inability of the old parties to field any sane candidates. This is not my first run. Ive run for office seven times before, everywhere from county counsel to u. S. Representative. I have received over 30 of the vote in many of those races in twoway races. In 2010, i ran for the Indiana House of representatives. I was able to garner nearly 21 of the vote in a threeway race against a republican and a democrat. [applause] Ballot Access news reported this is the first time it happened and 85 years so i take a lot of writing that. And it also gives me a lot of hope. It was just 13 away from a winning total in a threeway race. The three were a race im in this year contains a homophobe republican and a wishywashy democrat. I think our chances are very good. [applause] while i was running for those offices, i was also the wayne county chair. While i was the wayne county chair, we have managed to win eight races in wayne county. These are partisan races where we elected libertarians to office. My wife susan sitting in the to thee has been elected Hagerstown Council court judge four times. [applause] we dont just do it once. That we arecan see not just messing around. We are very serious about this. My Campaign Committee has come. P with a Strategic Plan as frugal as they are, they say we need 100,000 to run an effective campaign. They told me my duty is to raise that money. So everybody please stay seated. Is get oneke to do person to write me a check for 100,000, how simple would that be . Barring that, i would also accept 100 from a thousand of you, i would accept a thousand dollars from 100 of you. 10,000 fromcept 10 of you. I am very libertarian that way. I am not stuck on any one single issue. , im libertarian enough to accept anything from any of you that would like to contribute. Electrexbell. Com. There is a donut button there. You can find me on facebook. You can also go to sti nkyshorts. Com which is a book that i wrote about libertarianism. Its normally 11 and . 21. Forave it on convention so 10. Any help you could give, id appreciate you taking the time. Lets get him this fall. [applause] are there any other announcements or points of information . Microphone number two. Hoosier delegate from georgia would like to request that if anyone is aware of where the georgian marker sign is, that it could be returned right in front of the camera. Kids, dont hurt people and dont take their stuff. Could the wisconsin delegation chair please come to the secretarys assistance table stage left. I have a point of order please. Microphone number two. This is karen and harlows from colorado. Not being on the tally sheet. Id like to know why this couldnt have been corrected or handwritten question mark isnt it required by our bylaws that it be on the tally sheet . Thet is required and in interest of time, the ruling of the chair is that you just write it in and counsel count of the votes so that we dont have to take the time of reprint the ballots. How would we feel of an actual named cala best candidate was at omitted . It will be corrected for future ballots. Thank you. Thisile we continue balloting process, does anyone have any objection if we bring in mr. Simmons, the Congress Candidate for massachusetts backup because i didnt get a chance to listen to his speech. Is that ok . Thomas simmons. Thank you for letting me come back up here today. Massachusetts. Were herew if you yesterday, im running for congress in the First District of massachusetts. One thing we didnt get to talk about yesterday when i was up here, for 18 years i have been a College Professor of economics and business. Years, my life has been trying to instill the principles of Market Economics into young minds coming at the classroom who come in not having a background in economics whatsoever. Ne of the issues we find and if you speak to any teacher the college level, they will confirm this. One of the issues we are constantly dealing with is that students enter our classroom and we make a reference to a astorical event, we make reference to a geographical location, we make it reference to a percent or fraction and we get a blank stare. This has been happening and getting worse as i have been teaching as a teacher. Everyone of these students as to why they did not come to college with the body of knowledge everyone of us take why ted, youing to the teachers get the same exact answer all the time. They did not teach us that because we had to teach to the test. We had to learn how to take standardized test. , weidnt learn how to think learned how to fill in a bubble answer. Behind started this nonsense. Efforts to tie School Funding where the federal government takes your taxes and dangles it back to you at the state level and says if you take take the right standardized test, then you do well, youll get your money back, has destroyed and is continuing to destroy Public Education inhe United States. [applause] government has no role in telling states and School Districts what to teach, how to teach it, and how to and to hold money ran some so that teachers heads hands are tied and students are learning to fill in bubbles and take tests instead of learning how to think critically. Opponent richard neal, the incumbent for 26 years is one of the strongest proponents of holding federal money hostage to standardized test. Teacher, i will tell you this has got to stop. When i defeat him, the first thing i will seek to do is and common core in this country. [applause] thank you, mr. Simmons. Are there any other points of information or people seeking to be recognized at this time . Microphone number one. Point of personal privilege. Partyountry and this loves music. We dont have a theme song. So im going to play it for you. If youd like it, maybe we can adopt it as a semiofficial tune. [applause] liberty in our lifetime. Thank you, sir. I wish all privileged motions were that entertaining. [laughter] [applause] if there are delegations that of not submitted their votes to the secretary, please work on getting those in as soon as possible. The faster we turn the men, the faster we count them, the faster we count them, the faster we announce them. The faster we announce them, the faster we get to work on electing a libertarian president. [applause] microphone number two. Point of personal privilege. Order, please. Anyone has a banquet tickets for tonight that you will not be attending, i have a list of people who would like to attend but were not able to afford one. Contact me at the utah table or see me around. Thank you, mr. Marshall. I would like to bring onto the stage, miss donna dawn running for the state of congress for congress in the state of indiana. [applause] at 211 degrees, water is hot. At 212 degrees, water boils. Boiling water produces steam. Locomotive. Wer a one extra degree makes all the difference. We are that extra degree. [applause] hello everyone, my name is donna and im running for u. S. Congress in indianas First District. Better known as the region. I dont want to talk to you today about what i would do as a libertarian in congress. We all want the same thing. Minimum government, maximum freedom. I want to discuss how we are going to get there. I did not get into politics, politics got into me. It is a fact that the two old parties are not what they say. And people are angry, and rightfully so. The democrats dont care about free speech anymore than the republicans care about free enterprise. Sayinge both too busy that each others candidate is evil and corrupt. What our country when art country was founded, we took on what was at that time, the most powerful country in the world and we can and we must do it again. If we want to take our country back. Revolutions happen because people come together and they act. And they do something. A small group of colonists, the sons of liberty, came together in secret to start the fire of our revolution. Excuse me. Our revolution is much bigger than the American Revolution. We are in this fight together. We must face our fears. We must be willing to do whatever it takes to ensure a future for our children and our grandchildren. Each of us can take our own path to get there. As long as we are headed to the same destination.

I want to bring up a man who i first met when i was 12 years old. Father took me to Libertarian Party meetings and i was just a kid. And i read David Bergmans libertarianism in one lesson because it was on my fathers bookshelf. And i became a libertarian. Ive never been anything else and i never will be. One of the people who showed me how awesome libertarianism is was a gentleman i first met when i was 12 and that Party Meeting who is still active today. I would like to bring to the stage mr. Ernie hancock. [applause] this message is for the young people. Months young once. I wanted to share something with but when he died, i was not going to be able to tell him. Give me a second. We fought so hard as the young people did here, and i does want you to know that we have been dealing with young people from when i was young to now. Because i always understood that it was always, always generation next. The nextgeneration, innovation, the next technology, the next way to be able to communicate our passion and our philosophy with many people all over the planet from your bedroom on your laptop. I want to do share with young people. I was inspired by when you had all the people stand up and how many conventions they had gone to, and i wanted i looked and i thought there as well over half of you that were not here in the early 90s and saw what a desolate place libertarianism was in this country. It was a lot of great material, but it was not disseminated. We are having meet ups where you actually had to meet up and call people to comment come. Webpages, liberty nexus. The reason was that whenever you came here, you found all these great activism around the country sharing these ideas of all the cool things you can june do and change the minds of your friends and neighbors. And change a culture with freedom just by being an example. Libertyof the spear of on this planet is in his room. [applause] and across the country. As young activists, when it came to an opportunity, and a lot of you probably know that i and the one that created the ron paul revolution logo. What people do not understand, they go ernie how did you know . I like how the hell do not know . How to do not know what a powerful message libertarianism is . As libertarians, we understood this type of message was going to penetrate the psyche of a planet. Have an entire generation. This is not geographical. This is generational. So when i talk to the young people here, i just want you to be encouraged. We did not have email accounts. We did not have webpages. There was no twitter or facebook. And by the way, there is going to be a new decentralized internet. When that does without censorship, without surveillance, where people are able to access themselves freely, without repercussions and getting paid for whistleblowing. It is over man. Upse young people have grown with this understanding of all freedom of expression without the control of the Mainstream Media. The media that is so last century. They dont get it. And we have the biggest arrow in our quiver, bigger than anyone elses, it is just the truth. [applause] i have been to a lot of conventions. They have a lot of things that we do.
