WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Contenders for the Libertarian Party nomination for president met at Reason's HQ in D.C. this week to discuss the future of the Libertarian Party.

NEW YORK, NY -- Wayne Allyn Root, seeking the nomination for president from the Libertarian Party in two weeks, reports in a press release today that terms have been set for a debate with former Alaskan Senator Mike Gravel to be aired on FOX-TV.

From his release, "Wayne Allyn Root will debate former United States Senator Mike Gravel on Fox Business Network on Friday May 16th. It is believed to be the first-ever Libertarian Presidential debate to be televised nationally, outside of C-Span coverage during the Libertarian convention. Former Congressman Bob Barr was invited to join the debate- but declined.

Root has also agreed to join Barr and Gravel live and in-person in Washington D.C. on Tuesday May 20, 2008 in a Libertarian Presidential debate hosted by Reason magazine."

No mention was made by the Root campaign whether other leading LP candidates Dr. George Phillies and Dr. Mary Ruwart were invited.
