REPUBLICAN LIBERTY CAUCUS
OF TEXAS eNEWSLETTER

IN THIS ISSUE: 

*****************************************************

 

LET US KNOW IF YOU'RE A DELEGATE 

TO THE TEXAS REPUBLICAN CONVENTION:

http://www.rlctexas.net/events/2002_06_07.htm 

 

Please let us know if you were elected to be 

a state delegate to the Texas Republican 

Convention.  We are tentatively hosting an 

RLC reception during the convention, and 

we'd like for you to join us, so let Don 

Zimmerman or John Reed know that you'll be 

there, their contact information is below.  In 

addition, if you can volunteer to dedicate a 

little time at our RLC of Texas Booth at the 

State Convention, please contact us.  We 

need your help.  We need people at our booth 

in rotating schedules.  It's important that we are 

able to interact and meet other like minded 

PRO-LIBERTY Republicans.  We have a fun 

"Political Quiz" from the Advocates For Self-

Government; this short quiz will allow us to 

poll the Republicans that visit our table, and 

it will allow our visitors to find out what kind of 

Republican they are (conservative-Republican, 

libertarian-Republican, liberal-Republican, etc.)  

We also have a large Political map where we 

will place each score in order to get a feel for 

the political leanings of the delegates.  It's a fun 

exercise.  We need to grow our ranks.  We 

have a 16% to 20% constituency out there.  

This means that for every 5 people you 

meet, one of them has the same pro-liberty 

beliefs as you, but we must actively search out 

these Republicans.  There is strength in 

numbers.  Even if you were not elected to be a 

state delegate, you can still enter the 

Convention as a Booth Worker.  We hope that 

you can join us.  Thank you.
