Among them is IVAW member Adam Kokesh. Another group of voters have formed the &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/americanpatriotsagainstkokesh.wordpress.com\/\">American Patriots Against Kokesh<\/a>&#8220;. Two groups with varying opinions. Here is the &#8220;Liberty Candidates&#8221; Mission Statement;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Our mission is in sync with Campaign for Liberty from whence the Liberty Candidate questions evolved:<\/p>\n<p>    * Individual Liberty<br \/>\n    * Sound Money<br \/>\n    * Free Market<br \/>\n    * Constitutional Government<br \/>\n    * Non-interventionist Foreign Policy<\/p>\n<p>Our Goal is to have at least one Liberty Candidate in each state:  50 Dr. No&#8217;s*!!!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Innocuous enough, oh, I forgot this line; &#8220;Dr. Ron Paul is a.k.a. Dr. No because he votes NO for all legislation outside the Constitution!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yes, they Ron Paul supporters hiding behind their unexpressed interpretations of the Constitution. <\/p>\n<p>Well, apparently the &#8220;Liberty Candidates&#8221; don&#8217;t like the fact that the APAK folks get a voice and one of the &#8220;Liberty candidates&#8221; have threatened to sue;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>To: Susan Wolf, American Patriots Against Kokesh and associated hate groups;<\/p>\n<p>RE: Slander,  Libelous Statements, Use of threats, coersion to prevent income, tampering with election funding, use of misleading video clips and doctored footage.<\/p>\n<p>On behalf of Liberty Candidates, as I am one, I find your actions abhorrent and unlawful. Those organizations using a 503c Charitable Organization charter will be subject to diciplinary measures by the authorities in your respective states. This serves as notification that Liberty Candidates, all 126+ are in the process of filing legal action against your all of the organizations in the coming week. For those of you that are private citizens that participated in this outrageous action, I should hope that you are financially well off. Your plan to threaten the citizens of the United States into not donating to a political candidate of their choice and in their state violates many laws that we do not have enough paper to possibly list here. Groups holding a 503c charter are prohibited from endorsing ANY particular candidate. By slandering Adam Kokesh, Candidate for New Mexico&#8217;s race, you have indirectly endorsed Lujan. All candidates have suffered large financial losses to their campaign funding, so enjoy your moment of gloating. It will be short lived. Rest assured, we have employed several laywers that will work on a pro bono basis to recoup these losses from your hate groups. This is your one and only notice to CEASE and DESIST from these types of unlawful activities. We are asking for the sum of $126,000,000.00 (one hundred and twenty-six million dollars) from each group responsible for these actions. We will begin serving these complaints in the next 7-10 days, one as a class action lawsuit, and should that fail; each candidate will be serving their own individual complaints against you following that. I suggest you focus your activities on a local level, and be more productive in helping those in your communities. You have run up against a large group of determined individuals that refuse to be stopped in their quest to return America back to the Constitution. We will use this great document to the fullest extent in making sure that the 2010 elections are not influnced by hate groups such as yours. Have a nice day!  <\/p>\n<p>Sincerely, Steve Susman, Liberty Candidate   <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Here&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/stevesusman2010.ning.com\/\">Steve Susman&#8217;s website<\/a>. It looks like he&#8217;s running for Congress in Texas, but who can tell by the website? Another Ron Paul basement-dwelling pseudo-intellectual who will probably end up telling me do my own research at some point.<\/p>\n<p>I guess &#8220;return America to the Constitution&#8221; means &#8220;sue everyone who disagrees with you and provides indisputable proof&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Since all of the evidence that I&#8217;ve provided against Kokesh is original documentation, since none of my videos have been altered in anyway, I&#8217;ll quote the smartest president of the 21st century thus far &#8211; Bring it on! If you think that Kokesh is worth dragging your organization down to his level, if you think you can campaign and wage a legal war at the same time from the comfort of your parents&#8217; basement, sue me, bitches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s a group of candidates in the country who call themselves the &#8220;Liberty Candidates&#8220;.
