========================================
Just got back in from Fredricksburg from our 2011 State Texas Liberty Campaign Convention. I wanted to get a summary out for those who attended, and those who could not.
First, a big thanks to Craig Young for all his work on preparations and speakers for the event, Griffin for his work on the By-laws, and to Jim, Dan, Matthew, and Lance, among others from this group, who attended.
First, a little history and talk on what the Texas Liberty Campaign IS. (This is a brief synopsis, in generality, so forgive me any errors…)
In September 2008, at the Ron Paul rally for the Republic, the Campaign for Liberty was announced, with a strong top down structure. Representatives from each state attended a formation meeting. Each state was to have a certain time to form a board of directors that could then join the national organization.
Members of the state who attended the rally decided to send representatives to this meeting, then when they got back with the general members, it was decided that Texas would take a different “bottoms-up” approach.
