Oklahoma Libertarian Party: Difference between revisions

==Oklahoma Caucus==

The opening session of the [[1973 Libertarian National Convention]] was a discussion of how to use issues to generate public support.  Stephen Browne, fresh off of getting 21% of the vote running for city council in Norman, OK, experienced some frustration with the audience's lack of interest in the nuts and bolts of retail campaigning.  During the proceedings Browne, [[Tom Laurent|Tom]] and Mary Laurent and others of the Oklahoma delegation announced that they were going to go caucus, a phrase which in reality meant they were going to go to a second location and smoke marijuana.  This rapidly became known as the [[Oklahoma Caucus]] which then evolved into a regular, if informal, event at national conventions where various esteemed Libertarians of the Sooner State would lead discussion of LP history and issues with all who cared to attend.  The Oklahoma Caucus was last held as recently as 2002, hosted that year by [[Robert Murphy]].
