Introduction
Attention Grabber
On my way to this presentation I saw a father teaching his son how to ride a bike. Seeing this flashed me back to the days when I was learning to ride my bike. I fell over and over and over. And just as I was about to give up, my father picked me up and said to me “What do we do when we fall? We get back up and try again” That lesson has stuck with me through my whole life.

It seems that no matter who we elect to public office, the government budget gets bigger and the family budget gets smaller.

There is Hope for Your Family
There is a political party that believes the family budget is more important than the Federal budget. A political party that is working to restore the hopes and dreams of every hard-working American family
Subpoint 3
It is the Libertarian Party.
More than two-hundred Libertarians are currently holding public office. Each of them is working today to keep the government from taking any more of your money. And each of them believes that if government were limited to protecting us against force and fraud, then most Americans would be better off. Less government corruption. No more expensive "boondoggle" projects. No more "special interest" favors at your
