Alternative '80 was a combination of Libertarian National Convention and infomercial. It was not a business convention with platforms and bylaws but was either the final non-business national convention or it was something confusably similar (in addition to being completely unique in Libertarian Party history) that took place in lieu of one. This was also the name given to the Ed Clark/David Koch ticket.
The event included speeches from Ed Crane, Nathaniel Brandon, Dick Randolph (the only elected Libertarian public official at that time), Ed Clark, and David Koch. Singer Tane McClure provided musical entertainment.
