We Run in the Republican Party until the convention, getting extra donations, media coverage, and debate time that it provides, and then promptly run as an Independent after the convention.

The convention is in September. That only leaves 2 months for campaigning.

Whether or not you agree with an Independent/3rd party run, that can't happen. You would have to start by April, at the latest.

Why? Besides we're all thinking to short term here, Ron (despite what he said) did not enter this to win, entered it to educate people. He's done that, and he could continue to do that after the convention. However, personally I'm still for him staying in as Republican and then winning his seat again in Congress. We need to start reevaluating our goals.

what it takes to get ron elected within the republican party is also what gives us most clout long term within the corrupt 2 party system -- delegates and precinct chairs. take over the GOP until RP HQ says otherwise.
