Ernie is reflective of the hardcore, radical nature of libertarianism which the Libertarian Party exists to further by moving the country in a libertarian direction.
I have known Ernie since becoming a Libertarian in 1998. He is passionate and resourceful and I have no doubt that, should be become Chairman of the national LP our best days are yet to come.

I know Ernest Hancock and I know the LP. I enthusiastically support and endorse him for National Chair and encourage you to do the same. For the first time I can remember we Libertarians actually have the opportunity to put a real, live activist at the helm.
There is no one, nor has there ever been anyone else run for this office who touts the credentials, and the accomplishments of Ernest Hancock. I was there with three other people and Ernest when he laid out his idea of creating a “Love-olution” to work independently of, but along side of Dr. Paul’s campaign for president--and the revolution began.
No one else can match his experience in dealing with the olde media, or his ability to go around them to take the message of individual liberty to the People.
Ernest knows that winning office is NOT the most important thing we can do, as some would suggest. He knows that bad people come into all parties, including ours and that without an undiluted set of principles to which we are bound, we would only wind up with more LINOs and half-steppers in office. This is a man who concentrates on educating the public as to what it means to be “free”, and he knows that being free is not a relative term and it is not subject to percentages and degrees.
He knows the war in Iraq is wrong, and more importantly, presents a clear contrast to those among us who are evidently afraid of what they think others are thinking. He knows that a little less theft is NOT okay.
I am absolutely confident that with Ernest Hancock as chair of the Libertarian Political Party that we will receive more attention than ever before, and there will be no question as to ‘who’ we are, ‘what’ we want, or ‘how far we’ll go to get it’.
As always, I remain at your service —
Barry Hess

Ernie is very creative, intelligent, earnest, and hard working. I have admired his work with Freedom Summit since 2002. He boldly dreams of freedom and he dares to be effective in showing the way forward.

Ernie is a dear friend that is one of my "go to guys" for ideas, opinions, and creative inspiration. He is truly the "energizer bunny," never slows down and is equally as loveable. I am so grateful to Ernie for his unagashed love and support of our Constitution which makes him a perfect candidate for the Chairman of the U.S. Libertarian Party. His devoted and ardent support of the principles of liberty have fired up virtual armies of "Revolution-ists" as he helps prepare them (us) to retake our country - - " of the people, by the people, for the people. " YOU GO, ERNIE!

The Libertarian Party is the largest political party outside of the two major ones in terms of membership. As such it has the greatest chance of making the founders ideas of individual liberty widespread. However, to do that the National Libertarian Party needs active and demonstrative leadership in order for those ideas to be made a significant presence in the minds of the American people. Ernie Hancock, like John Hancock before him, is the one that can truly lead the way. The National Libertarian Party needs Ernie Hancock at its helm.

I have know Ernie for over 4 years now, and I have always know him to be very creative and very vocal in his crusade to spread the message of freedom. I had been a Libertarian Party member, from 1976 until 2007, when I switched to the Republican Party in the Ron Paul R3volution. Libertarians would be wise to elect Ernie Hancock to continue the Libertarian R3volution going forward. He would be an excellent choice for National Chairman.

Nobody I have ever met has worked harder to advance the cause of Liberty than Ernest Hancock.
I have known Ernie for several years and his ability to frame an issue and deliver results through the media, the courts and grassroots efforts is unparalleled.
I was a registered Libertarian for several years - I am now an independent. Ernie would be the force needed to bring me and thousands of others back to the L.P.

Ernest Hancock is the "yes" man the Libertarian Party needs. "Yes" you should run for office. "Yes" you should pursue your novel education or outreach idea. "Yes" you should run with your activism idea. "Yes" I will show you how, but "no" I won't do it for you. Ernie has repeatedly demonstrated that libertarians don't need permission, license, or committees to accomplish monumental feats, they just need a little validation and encouragement. He knows that libertarians can work together without marching in step. There are exciting opportunities open for the Libertarian Party right now, in no small part due to his efforts encouraging the Ron Paul Revolution - Ernie can capitalize on those opportunities while others are still building consensus.

The LP has plenty of uncompromising ideological stalwarts. What it needs is an uncompromising ideological stalwart who also has the demonstrated creativity to generate a nationwide meme like the rEVOLution. That's Ernie Hancock.

Ernie is still the only person who runs for National LP Chair with the goal of making the office obsolete, as the true bottom-up grassroots and voluntarist activism takes over most of the necessary work. He always gets my vote now.

Ernie is the hardest working and most effective libertarian activist that I have had the pleasure of meeting. He lives his life in a highly ethical, principled fashion. He is inspiring and determined. He is definitely a stalwart defender of individual rights and freedom. As Chair of LPUS he would definitely put the party back on the right track. Ernie has been a profound source of inspiration for my efforts and I am proud to call him my friend.

I could not think of a better person to represent the Libertarian Party. Ernie is the assiduous foot soldier in our endless quest for liberty and freedom. If Ernie were to run for President, he would surely have my vote...that is of course if I voted.

Ernie is the "stone soup" guy of libertarianism. He can start with nothing more than an idea -- even an improbable one -- and get people so enthusiastic over it that creativity, money, and effort flow like magic. The results often outstrip anyone's hopes or expectations.
Clearly the best example of Ernie's grassroots magic is the way he started the Ron Paul Revolution with a logo, a few activists, and the power of the Internet -- much to the surprise of Dr. Paul's official campaign staff. I can think of maybe two other Ron Paul Revolutionaries who are even in the same league, but nobody inspires like Ernest Hancock.

I can attest that Ernie Hancock has worked tirelessly to advance liberty. His efforts to spread material at Republican Conventions has been effective to bring a strong debate about the income tax and the Real ID Act. Ernie Has backed efforts to defend the integrity of elections. I am proud to call Ernie Hancock a friend and believe the Libertarian Party would be wise to select Ernie as their National Party Chairman.

Ernie is the Johnny Appleseed of hardcore libertarianism. Much of what I have accomplished as an activist is directly attributable to Ernie's inspiration.

Ernie is the greatest. No one is more uniquely qualified for this position than Ernest Hancock, and that is my totally unbiased opinion as a registered Libertarian since 1996.
