Signs, brochures and candidate statements have space limitations. Ads have price limitations. All should reference a domain name where all the candidate or pertinent Party positions are delineated and emphasized with photographs, graphics animations or videos and linked to the Web sites that explain in more detail the Libertarian moral and practical aspects of the issues, and link to more issues and positions for a thorough education of the willing visitor. The Web puts the individual in control in their quest for information, truth, morality, common sense, justice and the libertarian way.

Candidate sites

All the issues are described on the Web site in order of concern of the candidate or voters. All such Web sites should link to a list of the sites of all the other Libertarian candidates in the County (Region). The list includes links to the State (Governor, etc.) and Federal (Senator, President, Vice President, cabinet) sites on the ballot in that county. In this manner, a voter can be made aware of all the Libertarian candidates for whom they can vote.

Domain names

If the domain name is short, it is not only easily remembered, but also can be effectively used on signs. The Regions should acquire domain names for all the voting districts within their territory. Domain names like AD23.org for Assembly District 23 can be used every election. Similarly, the State organizations should acquire CASenator.org, CAGov.org, etc. for all the state elective offices. Similarly, the National LP should acquire Pres.org and VPres.org, or whatever is available in this regard.

The National LP should also acquire domain names for each cabinet position. This will allow the presidential candidate to disperse Executive Office information to cabinet sites, and delegate email, press release and media response responsibilities to a shadow government of proposed cabinet members.

Gandi.net charges only $12 Euro ($10 USD) per domain per year for up to five years. A few others charge less, but I have not done business with them and do not know if they are reputable or if their agreement rival that of Gandi.net. Negotiate a group discount.
