Outreach to the left

Discussion

I just came across this old message from Mike Acree. Anyone hear
anything further about this planned outreach to the left at the
convention, or otherwise from the national office? I haven't.

Yours in liberty,

I got Seehusen's letter with the poll about outreach to the left when
I got home at midnight last Wednesday. Before showering and packing
for a 4:50 shuttle pick-up to the airport, I dashed off this response:

My first reaction to your letter about outreach to the left was,
"Hallelujah, I don't believe it!" My second reaction was: "I don't
believe it."

In a recent e-mail to Geoff Neale on this subject, I promised $100 by
return mail for any outreach project to the left. I am enclosing $100
for this purpose, having just received your letter. If the rightward
tilt of the Party is as bad as I've been claiming for the past 7
years, however, the response to this poll will be overwhelming
opposition to any such outreach. If my cynical suspicion is correct
that this poll was designed to provide justification for not doing
outreach to the left, while simultaneously creating the impression of
openness to that project in the national office, then please apply the
enclosed contribution exclusively to ballot access. I hope you'll
soon be proving me wrong.
