Volunteer of the week September 16 - 22, 2000
AARON BITERMAN
WAUKESHA COUNTY (WI) COORDINATOR
Aaron Biterman's passion for libertarianism is inspiring. As Waukesha
(Wisconsin) County Coordinator for HB2000, Aaron's has been instrumental in
promoting our candidate. These efforts are in addition to his
responsibilities as an Executive Board member of the Metro Milwaukee LP and
as a volunteer for Tim Peterson for US Senate. He is a strong advocate for
equal and fair media coverage for all Libertarians, often writing in support
of Carla Howell, John Clifton and Barry Hess, candidates for US Senate
outside Wisconsin. His reasoned and passionate letters have been addressed
to the Washington Post, the NY Times, USA Today, CNN, FNC, Gallup Polls,
Hardball with Chris Matthews, The Late Show with David Letterman, the
Teamsters, Netscape, the Commission on Presidential Debates and many others.
He encourages his volunteers to copy these letters, sign their own names,
inundate these organizations and demonstrate the appeal and newsworthiness
of our positions. Aaron also has compiled a list of Internet sites where
volunteers can register their vote for Harry Browne or otherwise petition
for inclusion if the site has omitted him from their polls.
Harry Browne frequently encourages us to identify how people's lives will
benefit from the implementation of libertarian positions. Aaron takes this
strategy to heart. He recently appeared on Wisconsin Public Radio to
protest a local curfew law. For Aaron and his peers, these laws represent an
erosion of their individual liberty. (Aaron is seventeen years old.)
We are very fortunate to have Aaron on our team. His articulately
represents the concerns of youth alienated from the political process. He
is able to mobilize others to demand fairness and freedom from government
regulation and intervention. We are excited to think about the heights he
will reach should he continue to pursue a career of political activism!
