My name is Ashley Rae Goldenberg (Ashley Ray on Facebook) and I am petitioning the Libertarian Party to unblock me from their Facebook page.

During the 2013 Virginia gubernatorial election, the Libertarian Party ran a candidate named Robert Sarvis. Although a advocate for expanding the government's role in Medicare and various other anti-libertarian positions (http://www.nationalreview.com/article/362690/sarvis-libertarian-nope-charles-c-w-cooke), the Libertarian Party constantly promoted Sarvis on their social media pages as an alternative to Republican Ken Cuccinelli.

It was revealed during the campaign that Sarvis, the so-called "libertarian" pick for governor, was actually funded by an Obama bundler (http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/11/05/revealed-obama-campaign-bundler-helping-fund-libertarian-in-tight-va-gubernatorial-race/), potentially so he could be a spoiler for the free-market, libertarian-friendly Cuccinelli.

After the news spread, I responded to a post by the Libertarian Party Facebook post about Sarvis by asking (paraphrasing), "Can someone explain why Sarvis is being funded by Obama bundlers?"

I was then blocked by the Libertarian Party. For asking a question.

While I acknowledge the moderators of any Facebook page have the right to ban any individual for any reason they see fit, it is not in the spirit of liberty for the Libertarian Party--the political party that claims to promote free expression and free exchange--to block someone for merely asking a question.

As a prospective Libertarian voter for the 2016 presidential election, I would like for the Libertarian Party to unblock my Facebook page.
