"Super Tuesday": Lessons from the Campaign TrailKRC Research
Webinar from KRC Research, "Super Tuesday": Lessons from the Campaign Trail.
Many of KRC’s executives have worked at the highest levels of global and domestic politics for the likes of Obama, the Clintons, Blair, Bloomberg, and more. We want to teach you how the skills employed to win on the campaign trail are the very ones succeeding in the boardroom today.

3. The ways in which political candidates visualize their message to drive support.
4. Harnessing the power of Big Data.
This is not a political webinar, but instead one on how companies, organizations, and agencies can benefit from thinking like a pundit and leverage best practices on the campaign trail to enhance their own campaigns.

Partisanship in America has always been led by the two major political parties for the most part. The two parties are republicans and democrats. These parties have represented the nation for a long time, since 1853 actually. President Fillmore was the last president in this country to have no affiliation to neither democrat nor republican but instead the Whig party (Whitehouse). The independence party which is considered a third party has been slowly rising as figure 10.1 depicts. There could be many reasons as to why this happened.
For instance, loss of faith in the democrat and republican party. As we learn in this chapter It takes a lot of consideration to “fit” into one of these partisanships. We learn that family, friends, mindset, ethics and moral dilemmas all play a role when declaring a political party. With the younger millennial generation making up a large portion of the independent party they are coming into play and they require something new. Maybe they do not believe what either party stands for, so they declare themselves independent. “Four in ten voters don’t want to be in a political party. Why? Because parties have become special interests — perhaps the biggest special interests of all” (Independent voting).
Another thing with the independent parties is that maybe they just do not want to be labeled. The millennial generation does not want to be represented by two parties typically in power. Especially with everything that is going on in the world. Deportation of illegal immigrants, separating of families, building of the wall, attacks in Syria, Iran, the whole abortion dilemma. The independent party which is considered to be conservative could be tired of the other party’s agendas. They each believe in something else. Democrats, the party that believes in equal opportunity regardless of race or lifestyle and are considered to be liberal. Republicans who tend to focus on the individualistic mindset and being conservative.
My last theory is that along with the rest of my generation, is that we don’t understand politics to the full extent. Yes, we get the parties, the powers and what comes with it. However why does the government do the things it does. If we cannot apprehend it to the fullest why declare myself something I am not. Therefore, I would side as being independent (hypothetically speaking).

The document also discusses some treatment options to help manage symptoms like seizures, breathing issues, and nutrition, but there is currently no cure for Tay-Sachs disease.

Recent years have seen a disturbing rise in violence, discrimination, and intolerance against Christian communities in various Islamic countries. This multifaceted challenge, deeply rooted in historical, social, and political animosities, demands urgent attention. Despite the escalating persecution, substantial support from the Western world remains lacking.

ING and we are having a lot of fun doing it!
You elected me as Chairman just over two
yearsagoandthinkofallwehaveachieved!
When we started we had a P.O. Box and
Voicemail box, now we have an amazing
office, lots of staffers and volunteers, tons
of events, Caucuses and Coalitions, pro-
fessional training from the best political
organizations in the country, the “Best
Political Website in Nevada” (according
to the Review Journal) and most impor-
tant, YOU! We are the fastest growing po-
litical party in the
country because
of each and every
one of you and I
can’t thank you
enough! Ever since the inaugural Lib-
ertarian Political Expo (LPEX) we have
seen significant growth in the number of
leaders, volunteers, and activists--I am
proud and honored to be your Chairman!
The best part is that we are just get-
ting started!
Nevadans are faced with more challenges
than ever before. Politicians want to con-
trol more and more aspects of our lives.
They continue to strip away our civil lib-
erties, they waste our money with no ac-
countability and they still tax us death! In
addition, they create new taxes and new
fines and try to suck as much money out
of us as they can. Nevada used to be one
of the “most business friendly” states in
the country, we are now one of the least
friendly states to business. The middle
class is in the cross hairs of virtually all
politicians from both
parties and we need
to say enough is
enough!
Part of the reason the Libertarian Party
has grown so much is due to voters’ dis-
satisfaction with the Republicans and
Democrats, and people are leaving both
parties in droves. (continued on page 3)

Why our immigrant crisis is every
American’s concern.
As a libertarian-leaning American, the re-
cent issues regarding immigrants bring
many complex and competing ideas to
mind. Some propose building a wall to
secure our southern border, while others
suggest we leave it as is. Still others ponder
the problem of whether to admit Syrian
refugees freely or restrict them. This topic
is especially difficult in light of our wonder-
ful history of being open to immigrants, yet
also being a safe and secure place to live.
As the head of a consulting firm that pro-
vides, as one of our service lines, corpo-
rate information security, the term balance
comes to mind. To be practical, security
needs to be balanced. For instance, on one
handofthesolutionspectrum,wecanclose
the borders, impose martial law, and re-
quire strict visas from all persons entering
our country. On the other hand we totally
open the borders, put an end to homeland
security surveillance, and require no more
visas. Analogous to information security,
if everything is locked down too tight, it
is unusable, and if it is too open, informa-
tion theft is almost assured. The correct
solution lies somewhere in the middle.
Part of the complexity of this problem
stems from the fact that many immigrants
require financial assistance and new iden-
tification. Not to mention their children
require schooling, their elderly require
healthcare—this adds to the logistic and
financial elements that need to be planned
andmanaged.Fromapurelibertarianview-
point, it’s clear that open borders are the
solution. But this solution requires more
federal involvement (at least initially); this
contrasts with the libertarian view of a
smaller federal government. Perhaps the
solution lies with more immigration control
at the state level, where states have their
own solutions based on their unique loca-
tionandissues.Perhapsourcurrentsystem
would be more effective if the current im-
migration laws were enforced uniformly.
Whatever the correct solution is, I know
that a balanced
approach is the
proper one, where
critical thinking and
our Constitution
rules over the more
emotional and re-
active solutions to this crisis.

American Dilemma
This topic is especially difficult in light of our
wonderful history of being open to immi-
grants, yet also being a safe and secure
place to live.
News from the North
It’s been a cold Thanksgiving in Northern
Nevada.Thegroundiscoveredinathinlayer
of snow, there is ice on the roads, and the
thermometerinRenoisbarelyinchingabove
freezing today. Even so, life does not freeze
up here - neither rain, nor snow, nor sleet
nor hail stops the Libertarian Party up here.
In fact, we will be holding a Meet & Greet at
Mi Casa Too in Reno on Saturday, Decem-
ber 5 - you can see more details on the
event in our Facebook group or on Meetup.
Since it’s the start of the holiday season,
let’s begin with something to be thank-
ful for - the Sparks City Council is think-
ing of removing a little-used statute out of
the Sparks Municipal Code that requires
plumbers and electricians working in
Sparks to purchase a certificate from the
city before they get to work. Though the
Reno News & Review is predictably against
it, the simple truth is Nevada has one of
the most heavily certified and regulated
workforces in the country. Removing local
regulations that further add to the burden
on Nevada’s workers should be encour-
aged. If you want to thank the Sparks City
Council for their wisdom, please do so here.
Elsewhere in Northern Nevada, the Bureau
ofLandManagementisextendingthepublic
comment period on the agency’s plan to
withdraw 10 million acres of public lands
from potential mineral extraction. This is a
big deal in Elko; balancing mining, the en-
vironment, and Native American concerns
on BLM lands has been an ongoing issue
for several decades now. Of course, these
issue stems from government ownership
over 81 percent of Nevada - if the federal
government didn’t serve as Nevada’s larg-
est landlord, private individuals could sort
these issues out themselves. Be that as it
may,ifyou’dliketoseewhattheBLMisplan-
ning,readaboutithere.
On that note, we wish
everyone in Northern
Nevada a happy and
joyous holiday season.
By: David Colbourne, Northern Nevada
Regional Representative
Removing local regulations that further add
to the burden on Nevada’s workers should
be encouraged.”

No more taxation without representa-
tion!
Small businesses in Nevada account for the
overwhelming majority of the tax revenues
but have virtually no representation!
Why we are doing it:
It’s tough running a business. We have so
manyresponsibilities;makingpayroll,keep-
ing the lights on, getting customers and
dealing with all the regulations. The last
thing we want to do is follow politics. The
problem is when we stop paying attention
politiciansdocrazythingsthathurtsusand
could force us out of business.
Business owners are too busy for politics
and most don’t have the resources to hire
a lobbyist or establish a government affairs
division, that’s where we come in.
Who we are:
Save Nevada Business Collation (Save NV
Biz) was established by business owners
in Nevada in response to the over taxa-
tion, egregious regulation/compliance and
the overreaching intrusive government. We
work to; hold government accountable,
simplify government regulations, minimize
taxes and create an environment that is
businessfriendlyinNevada.Weaccomplish
this by promoting a pro-business agenda
through political action.
What we do:
Save NV Biz keeps you up to date with lo-
cal/state/federal pending legislation that
will negatively affect your business. Our
committees establish goals to help create
an environment that is business friendly
in Nevada.
As a unified voice we advocate for solutions
on key business issues and educate politi-
cians on business priorities.
Weadvocateforbetterrulesandregulations
and we are your voice in government.
How we do it:
Save NV Biz reviews all new and existing
legislation that effects your business.
We believe business owners know what’s
bestfortheirbusiness,notthegovernment.
We also believe that when government tells
companies how to run their business, your
business,youremployeesandyourcustom-
ers suffer!
All government (city, county, state and fed-
eral) should support businesses by letting
us run our business the way we want to. We
should not be punished for creating jobs
and putting money into the community.
We are not asking you to close down your
business and work full time with us for bet-
ter laws and regulations, we are asking you

tion we send out and take action when we

FDA Approves New Product, Two
Decades Behind the Curve
TheUnitedStatesFoodandDrugAdminis-
tration (FDA) finally approved AquBounty
SalmononThursday,November19th.This
marks the first ever Genetically Modified
(GMO) animal approved for consumption
by the United States Government. This
was a historic step in the right direction-
-opening the door to a world of potential
new innovation with far ranging benefits
to consumers. These benefits include the
development of cheaper, healthier foods
and medicines, the environment, and the
economy. The potential applications of
Genetic Engineering are innumerable.
As exciting as this news is, the FDA has
already set this technology back decades
through twenty years of regulatory non-
sense. There is no scientific reason to
believe transgenics or RNA interference
(methods of creating a GMO) entail any
more danger than mutagenesis, selective
breeding, chemically induced polyploidy,
or any other breeding method--many of
which have been used for thousands of
years! In fact, the use of modern tech-
nology to target selected genes is much
less likely to result in harmful mutations
to people or the environment. Currently
the FDA only requires “safety” testing for
transgenics and RNA interference. This
stands in stark contrast with all other
breeding methods, which are eligible for
USDA “Organic” Certification without any
oversight or review process regarding the
breeding method.
AquAdvantage, the company behind the
development of AquBounty Salmon was
forced to undergo incredible, direct com-
pliance costs. They were also forced to
forgo revenue for the new product for
two decades! The fact that they were
ultimately able to bring this product to
market is a testament to the strength of
human spirit and the power of market
forces to drive innovation in the face of
fear-driven,governmentbarriers.Still,the
opportunity costs the FDA has imposed
by restricting development to products
andcompanieswhichcanwithstandsuch
costs is staggering, but difficult to detect.
Furthermore, these restrictions generate
monopoly rents for the few companies,
like Monsanto or AquAdvantage, that can
overcome these barriers. This concen-
trates wealth and power and further in-
hibits the process by which competition
lowers prices, improves productivity, and
delivers life saving or improving innova-
tions to market.
In addition to creating a two decade long,
potentially billion dollar compliance pro-
cess, the FDA has restricted the raising of
AquBounty Salmon to two facilities and
has banned production through natural
breeding of these salmon on the basis of
fear and ignorance. These restrictions,
which are designed in theory “to prevent
ecological impacts from the Salmon es-
caping into the wild,” will further drive up
costsbothfortheproducerandultimately
consumers. At the same time, the USDA
provides a multi-billion dollar subsidy
to “organic” alternatives, which are less
sustainable, more expensive, and have
no discernible benefits.

this publication is to create a large readership so that the message of liberty can con-
tinue to spread. To do that, I need you, the readers, to contribute to this publication.
That can be through writings you submit to editor@lpnevada.org, comments you leave
on blogs at www.LPNevada.org/blog, or suggestions you email to info@lpnevada.org.
I wish you all a Joyous Holiday Season, and I hope you enjoyed the inaugral edition of
the LPNevada Newsletter.
Respectfully,
