Buchman announces campaign for Libertarian Party Treasurer
Joseph Buchman, PhD, announced his intention to seek the position of
Treasurer of the Libertarian Party.
Buchman, 54, holds a master’s of science (MBA equivalent) in finance
from Purdue University (1983) – a top-20 school of business — (as
well as a PhD in mass communications (1989) and a BS in Marketing
(1980) both from Indiana University. He has been a registered member
of the Libertarian Party since 1984, and is a Life Member.
In 2008 Buchman ran for the United States Congress in Utah’s First
District, and received 6,287 votes. He served as State Party
secretary during that time and was a media advisor to the 1992
national Libertarian Presidential campaign (Marrou/Lord).
Buchman lives in Park City Utah with his wife and three youngest of
four children. He was a tenured professor of marketing and academic
department head prior to joining Cardean University (a partnership
with Stanford, Harvard and the University of Chicago) as a developer
of early online MBA education. Today he serves as a part-time member
of the MBA and PhD business faculty at Argosy and Davenport
Universities.
Buchman has been an active contributor to IPR (including serving as
the sole blogger for the December Las Vegas LNC meeting), and
describes himself as a “Principle Based” Libertarian. “There’s no
value in watering down our brand. I support the political positions
that naturally derive from the non-aggression and self-ownership
paradigms. In short, I am not a “Reagan-Libertarian,” or a “Common
Sense Libertarian.” I am a strict “Non-Violent Libertarian.” I
believe in social change through education and persuasion and have
dedicated my life to those pursuits — personally, professionally and
politically.”

Joe did not win. His help with IPR coverage of the LNC meeting is appreciated. Joe, as well as the winning candidate Tim Hagan, were recruited by many of the same people who represented a large chunk of the delegates who opposed both of the previously announced choices, Aaron Starr and George Phillies. Wes Benedict was one of many such people.
Tim Hagan won because he locked down nominating speeches from Wes Benedict et al, while Joe took more time to think about it.
Thanks, Carol.
Aaron Starr is running again. Thumbs up Mr. Buchman.
Who else is in this race?
