=Hospers Runs For Calif. Governor= | |||
[[John Hospers]], 1972 LP candidate for President, is on the campaign trail once more, this time as the California Libertarian Party's candidate for Governor. "Actually, John is running two campaigns," said [[Jack Willis]], Hospers' campaign manager. "One is an educational campaign, and the other is a ballot campaign." | |||
[[Jack Willis|Willis]] explained that the election strategy developed for Hospers centers upon an attempt to expose libertarianism to businessmen, professionals, and special interest groups. "We are essentially after opinion-makers,'' said [[Jack Willis|Willis]], "people who are looked up to by their peer groups. If we can plant the seed of libertarianism in the minds of these leaders we will have gone a long way toward achieving the goal of the education campaign.” | |||
Hospers spoke recently before the Los Angeles County Medical Association and has a meeting scheduled for August 29 with a dozen prominent San Francisco businessmen. | |||
