This Cleveland Plain Dealer article says that the Ohio Debate Commission plans to host a gubernatorial debate on October 8, and that one of the affiliates of the Ohio Debate Commission is the City Club, which is a nonprofit organization. The Libertarian Party argues that the City Club cannot be involved in hosting a debate that does not include all four gubernatorial candidates. The four are the nominees of the Republican, Democratic, Libertarian, and Green Party nominees.
The Libertarian Party is being forced to react to the injustice of the non profit and they deserve that experience since they aren’t interested in hearing from all candidates within their own nominating convention.
The Libertarian Party should look in the mirror about how they censor and snuff out not just their own POTUS candidates but every POTUS candidate outside the Libertarian Party.
The United Coalition USA is ready to collaborate with the Libertarian Party and we’re making steady progress on both the California and international levels.

“they aren’t interested in hearing from all candidates within their own nominating convention.”
This past convention they even let a libertarian SOCIALIST speak and even allowed him to be nominated for chair. He lost, obviously but if there’s one party where all people can be heard its the LP. Just because you lost doesn’t mean there are “party bosses” conspiring against you.
Surprise Ogle didn’t try to run for President this year, like he tried in 2014. That shows you how nutty he is- filing for offices not up for election!
Brandon, I won the only primary with 52.7% and the bosses didn’t just block me from speaking at the convention but they blocked many others including all Libertarian female candidates.
Our team won but they didn’t want anyone to know.
Now despite that we are still helping the LP to adopt pure proportional representation (PPR) in multiple geo-levels against the philosophy of the LP from the bottom up but on our terms where each of the former Libertarian Party POTUS candidates have either switched parties or not we are still doing all the work while the bosses oppose us tooth and nail.
In regards to the 2014 filing, that was a typo I made, didn’t even know I made it until the story about that came out. In 2016 I ran on the Independent/Republican ticket and now looking back I see that the opposite gender candidacy of Roseanne Barr [Green Tea] on my team was the difference maker in 2012.
So we are trying to unite with good female candidates for President now who can work across party lines like Roseanne.
Roseanne and I were two of the founders of the company All Party System Co., and she had been helpful, although she is no longer a founder.
No we have ten founders and we are all vying for a ten-way vote of confidence like the city of Cambridge Massachusetts City election statutes.
The difference is that Cambridge has nine City Council members but the United Coalition international team consists of ten. But other than the math differences of nine and ten names elected, we like the city of Cambridge Massachusetts elections to which we aspire.
Typo? How do you mess up something as important as the YEAR of the election? Even after receiving the letter, you still filed an amendment with 2014 as the year!
Ogle, you barely be uncommitted in Missouri. You were the only human candidate.
Stop this spamming. Everyone knows you are a joke and your little group is just you and your imaginary friends.
My name was on the Missouri ballot, I won that with 52.7% and Johnson was on that same ballot as a Libertarian.
You and others may wish other names were on the ballot, that they got votes and then you wish they won.
Fine.
Now you wish me to stop spamming but we’re engaging in political debate, which is not spam.
I have no objection to anyone else’s political comments and it wouldn’t seem appropriate to ask someone to refrain from commenting since everyone is probably a voter in my national district for US President, so they are all interested.
The United Coalition brings a unity phenomena to us all but you certainly have a right to object and we welcome the different points of view.
Typo, sorry, the ballot I won with 52.7%, Johnson was also on, but he had self-categorized as Republican.
Johnson a Republican on the ballot. I was on the Missouri primary ballot as a Libertarian.
My name was Libertarian category and that’s the primary I won, it was the only state primary which fell before the Libertarian Party convenrion.
Johnson wasn’t on that ballot as a Libertarian but when we attended the convention he was permitted to speak, but the party bosses made sure that I was blocked, snuffed out and we were never compared side by side in a debate, but I tried.
Admittedly pure proportional representation is advanced algebra and addition-based USA elections have engrained into the American psyche for several hundred years so it seems unlikely I would have been able to sway the whole convention floor of 500+ delegates.
But I did pass out a folder and introduced myself to at least 450 delegates and familiarized myself with the national Libertarian Party nominating convention.
The Libertarian Party can early double in size with the United Coalition’s help but we’re going to be looking in the mirror and by 1/1/2019 start fresh within the 24 counties of Nor Can Mini-state Parliament in 2019.

No wonder IPR banned you. You reply to your own comments. Spamming at its finest.
What justification, legal or otherwise is there for regulating the free speech activities of the City Club?
Ohio Debate Commission — City Club paper connection ???
IE is the City Club an arm of the state – temporary or permanent ???
IF NO statist connection — THEN City Club is a PRIVATE Biz with 1 Amdt speech/press/assembly rights as noted by Justice JR.
Jim, Federal tax laws prohibit non-profit organzations from participating in politics, because non-profits are tax write-offs for funds donated to help sick people.
The IRS doesn’t consider funds donated for political activism as being acceptable as tax write-offs.
@Go Ogle,
What are the first five words of the 1st Amendment?
