===[[Ken Kalcheim|KEN KALCHEIM]]===


[[Ken Kalcheim]], like [[Karl Bray]], is a leader in the tax strike movement; he is the editor and published off "Rip-Off Resistance" a monthly magazine containing material by tax fighters of both the far right and far left.  [[Ken Kalcheim|Ken]] has announced for Congress in New York's 17th District, where he will be running against John Murphy, a Democrat with a [[Royce Rating]] of 6, a score equalled or surpassed in its atrociousness only by two other Congressmen's.  [[Ken Kalcheim]] began his career in libertarianism as a conservative Republican, but is now associated with the extreme radical faction of the libertarian movement.  He hopes to receive an official endorsement from the [[Free Libertarian Party]] of New York for his campaign.  Contributions should be sent to Kacheim for Congress, 3459 East 65th street, Apt. C, New York 10021.
Other libertarian candidates whose plans we have heard of include [[Paul Pferdner]], who is running for state legislature in Oregon, and [[John James]], who plans to run for congress in Colorado's First District.  Stories on these and other campaigns will be carried in LP NEWS as information becomes available.
