PROXY STATEMENT

FOR AN ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON MARCH 30, 2012
 
GENERAL

This Proxy Statement and accompanying Proxy Card are being furnished to you in connection with the solicitation on behalf of the Board of Directors of BROADLEAF CAPITAL PARTNERS, INC. (the "Company" and the “Board”) of proxies for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on March 30, 2012 (the “Annual Meeting” or the “Meeting”), and at any adjournment thereof, for the purposes set forth herein and in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

The Annual Meeting will be held on March 30, 2012, at its executive headquarter offices located at 3887 Pacific Street, Las Vegas, NV 89121 at 10 a.m., Pacific Standard Time. The Company's telephone number is (702) 650-3000.

After ten days, or on or about January 30, 2012, we will begin mailing a copy of this Proxy Statement (collectively the “Proxy Materials”) to each shareholder of record as of the Record Date. All shareholders should access our electronic Edgar filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov to view our 10-K’s, 10-Q’s and other relevant filings with the SEC.  These filings are incorporated herein by reference.

RECORD DATE

Shareholders of record at the close of business on January 19, 2012 (the "Record Date") are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, 144,419,925 shares of the Company's common stock, $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock") were outstanding with approximately 3,500 shareholders.   For information regarding security ownership by management and by the beneficial owners of more than 5% of the Company's Common Stock, see "Beneficial Security Ownership of Management and Certain Beneficial Owners" below.

REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES

A shareholder may revoke any proxy at any time before its exercise by delivery of a written revocation to the President of the Company or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not itself be deemed to revoke a proxy unless the shareholder gives affirmative notice at the Meeting that the shareholder intends to revoke the proxy and vote in person.

VOTING AND SOLICITATION

All proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions of the shareholder. If no choice is specified, the shares will be voted: (i) FOR the election of Directors as listed in Proposal No. 1 of this proxy statement; and (ii) FOR the ratification of John Scrudato CPA, as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, as described in greater detail in proposal two.
  
Each shareholder is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held by him, her or it on all matters presented at the Annual Meeting. There are no shares of Preferred Stock currently outstanding. Shareholders do not have the right to cumulate their votes in the election of Directors.
 
 
-4-

 
Shareholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name

If on the Record Date your shares were registered in your name with the Company’s transfer agent, then you are a shareholder of record. As such, you may vote in person at the meeting or by proxy. Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting, you are encouraged to submit electronically the enclosed proxy card to ensure your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank

If on the Record Date your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and these proxy materials (or the notification of the internet availability of such materials) are required to be forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the shareholder of record for purposes of voting at the annual meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the annual meeting. However, since you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other agent.

Multiple Shareholders Sharing the Same Address

The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries e.g., brokers to satisfy delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those shareholders. This process potentially means extra convenience for shareholders and cost savings for companies. Shareholders sharing a same address may either contact the Company, or contact their broker, as applicable to request single or multiple proxy statement and annual report delivery, as desired.

Cost of Proxy Solicitation

The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition, the Company may reimburse brokerage firms and other persons representing beneficial owners of shares for their expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to such beneficial owners. Proxies may also be solicited by certain of the Company's Directors, officers and regular employees, without additional compensation, personally or by telephone, telegram, letter or facsimile. The Company may engage a proxy solicitor to act on its behalf in soliciting proxies.

QUORUM; ABSTENTIONS; BROKER NON-VOTES

At the Annual Meeting, the presence, in person or by proxy, of shareholders holding a majority of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Record Date shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Shares of Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy (including shares which abstain or do not vote with respect to one or more of the matters presented for shareholder approval) will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists at the Annual Meeting.

If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast by the shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is required to approve any proposal submitted at the Annual Meeting, other than the election of Directors, which is required to be approved by a plurality of the votes cast.   Although the Company will include abstentions and broker non-votes as present or represented for purposes of establishing a quorum for the transaction of business, the Company intends to exclude abstentions and broker non-votes from the tabulation of voting results on the election of Directors or on any other issues requiring approval of a majority of the votes cast.
 
BENEFICIAL SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF MANAGEMENT AND CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS

The following table sets forth the record beneficial ownership of Common Stock of the Company as of the Record Date for the following: (i) each person or entity who is known to the Company to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock; (ii) each of the Company's Directors (and nominees for election as Directors); (iii) the Company's Chief Executive Officer and each of the officers ("Named Officers") named in the Summary Compensation Table herein; and (iv) all Directors and executive officers of the Company as a group.
 
The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined under Rule 13d-3 as promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC" or "Commission"), and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the individual has sole or shared voting power or dispositive power and also any shares that the individual has the right to acquire within sixty days of the Record Date through the exercise of any stock option or other right. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes, each person has sole voting and dispositive power (or shares such power) with respect to the shares shown as beneficially owned.

If any nominee for any reason is unable to serve or for good cause will not serve, the proxies may be voted for such substitute nominee as the proxy holder may determine. The Company is not aware of any nominee who will be unable to, or for good cause will not, serve as a Director.

This issuance was intended to be exempt from the registration requirements pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 promulgated under Regulation D.

Board Leadership Structure
 
The Board of Directors does not have a policy as to whether the Chairman should be an independent Director, an affiliated Director, or a member of management.  Our Board believes that the Company’s current leadership structure is appropriate because it effectively allocates authority, responsibility, and oversight between management and the independent members of our Board. The Board believes that its programs for overseeing risk, as described below, would be effective under a variety of leadership frameworks and therefore do not materially affect its choice of structure.
 
Risk Oversight
 
        The Board exercises direct oversight of strategic risks to the Company. The Audit Committee reviews and assesses the Company’s processes to manage business and financial risk and financial reporting risk. It also reviews the Company’s policies for risk assessment and assesses steps management has taken to control significant risks. The Compensation Committee oversees risks relating to compensation programs and policies. In each case management periodically reports to our Board or relevant committee, which provides the relevant oversight on risk assessment and mitigation.
 
Vote Required

The election of the Director nominees listed above requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the outstanding voting shares of the Company, present in person or by proxy at the Meeting.  For the election of Directors, you may vote “FOR” all nominees or withhold authority to vote for all or some of the nominees.  If you hold your shares through a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee and you do not instruct them on how to vote on this proposal, your broker or other nominee will not have authority to vote your shares and such non-vote will have the effect of withholding authority to vote for all of the nominees.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES LISTED ABOVE.

PROPOSAL NO. 2
TO RATIFY THE APPOINTMENT OF JOHN SCRUDATO CPA, AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT AUDITORS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2012.


The Board of Directors recommends that the shareholders vote for approval and ratification of the appointment of John Scrudato CPA (“SCRUDATO”) as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2012.  

The Company does not anticipate a representative from SCRUDATO to be present at the Annual Meeting. In the event that a representative of SCRUDATO is present at the Annual Meeting, the representative will have the opportunity to make a statement if he/she desires to do so and the Company will allow such representative to be available to respond to appropriate questions.
 
Audit Fees
 
Our Audit Committee of the Board of Directors approves in advance the scope and cost of the engagement of an auditor before the auditor renders audit and non-audit services.  

The aggregate fees billed by SCRUDATO, for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements included in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2006 through December 31, 2010 (the “PERIOD”) and for the review of quarterly financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters during the PERIOD, were $18,000.00.
 
Audit fees incurred by the Company were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

Audit Related FeesNone.

Tax FeesNone.

All Other Fees: None.

We do not use the auditors for financial information system design and implementation. Such services, which include designing or implementing a system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or that generates information that is significant to our financial statements, are provided internally or by other service providers.  We do not engage the auditors to provide compliance outsourcing services.
 
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by SCRUDATO and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining SCRUDATO’s independence.

What vote is required to ratify the appointment of SCRUDATO?

The ratification of SCRUDATO as the Company’s independent accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting shares of the Company, present in person or by proxy at the Meeting.  For the ratification of the appointment of SCRUDATO as our independent accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, you may vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” or abstain from voting.  If you hold your shares in your own name and abstain from voting on this matter, your abstention will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” such proposals.  If you hold your shares through a broker, bank, trustee or other nominee and you do not instruct them on how to vote on this proposal, your broker or other nominee will not have authority to vote your shares and such non-vote will have the effect of a vote “AGAINST” this proposal.
 
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF SCRUDATO AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT AUDITORS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2012

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) requires our Directors and officers, and the persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our common stock, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Copies of all filed reports are required to be furnished to us pursuant to Rule 16a-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.  

Based solely on the reports received by us and on the representations of the reporting persons, we believe that all required Directors, officers and greater than ten percent shareholders complied with applicable filing requirements during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, except as follows:

The Company's Director, Donna Steward, failed to  file  a  report  on  Forms 3,4 or 5 covering  the  issuance and status  to  her by the Company for the periods of January 1, 2004 through the filing of this report dated August 31, 2011.

The Company's Director, Charles  Snipes,  failed  to  file  a  report on Form 3, 4 or 5 covering  the  issuance and status to him by the Company for the periods of January 1, 2004 through the filing of this report dated August 31, 2011.

The Company's Director, Robert McCoy, failed to file a  report on Form 3, 4 or 5 covering  the  issuance and status to him by the Company for the periods of January 1, 2004 through the filing of this report dated August 31, 2011.
 
The Company's Interim president, J. Michael King, failed to filed a report on Form 3 covering the issuance and status to him by the Company for the periods of January 1, 2004 through the filing of the report dated September 30, 2011.

After placing 2nd and 5th respectively in the 1990 and 1991 United States Investing Championship, he became a partner at ZimLev, Inc., a company which generated $90 million in equity, managed $1 billion in assets, and was a top ten performer between 1992 and 1995.

In 1997 Michael moved to Las Vegas and founded Princeton Research, Inc., registering soon after with Morgan Fuller Capital of San Francisco. Since 1999 Michael and Princeton have published a daily, and now weekly market letter providing on-point analysis of fundamental economic data and investment advice to an extensive network of analysts, investors, and traders across the world.

Compensation for serving as a Director for an individual that is a named executive officer is reflected in the above table on Executive Compensation at $250.00 per meeting based on four meetings.

CERTAIN RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the past two fiscal years there have been no transactions between the Company and any officer, Director, or any shareholder owning greater than five percent (5%) of our outstanding shares, nor any member of the above referenced individual’s immediate family, except as set forth below or otherwise disclosed above under “Executive Officer Compensation”.
 
It is our policy that any future material transactions between us and members of management or their affiliates shall be on terms no less favorable than those available from unaffiliated third parties.
 
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE  
 
During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Board determined that a majority of the Board is independent under the definition of "independence". Based upon these standards, the Board has determined that all of the Directors are independent, with the exception of Donna M. Steward who in addition to her duties as a Director serves as our Secretary and Treasurer. 
 
MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

During the fiscal year that ended on December 31, 2011, the Board held numerous meetings.  All Directors attended all meetings of the Board and all committee meetings on which the Director served during fiscal year 2011.
 
The Board has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating Committee.  All of the committees are composed of our Directors, Donna M. Steward, Charles Snipes and Robert McCoy.

NOMINATIONS FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Nominating Committee of the Board determined that re-election of the existing Directors was appropriate given the financial condition of the Company
 
AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee approved the filing of the Company’s delinquent periodic reports with the SEC.
 
INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN OR OPPOSITION TO MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON:
 
(a)  No officer or Director has any substantial interest in the matters to be acted upon, other than his role as an officer or Director.

(b)  No Director has informed the Company that he intends to oppose the action taken by the Company set forth in this proxy.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

No security holder has requested the Company to include any proposals in this proxy. Shareholder proposals intended to be eligible for inclusion in the Company's Proxy Statement and proxy card relating to the 2013 Annual Meeting of shareholders of the Company must be submitted to the Company in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act of 1934 and the Company’s By-Laws. The notice must be personally delivered to the Company or sent by first class certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and must include the name and address of the shareholder, the number of voting securities held by the shareholder of record, a statement that the shareholder holds such shares beneficially and the text of the proposal to be presented for vote at the meeting, and a statement in support of the proposal.

A shareholder proposal is a shareholder's recommendation or requirement that the Company and/or the Board take action, which the shareholder intends to present at the 2013 Annual Meeting of the Company's shareholders. The proposal should state as clearly as possible the course of action that the shareholder believes the Company should follow and should be accompanied by a supporting statement. The proposal, including the accompanying supporting statement, may not exceed 500 words. The Company reserves the right to reject, rule out of order, or take other appropriate action with respect to any proposal that does not comply with these and other applicable requirements. As the rules of the SEC make clear, simply submitting a proposal does not guarantee that it will be included.
