"Ryan Clayton and is the Exec. Director of WOLFPac, The Young Turks. They are Liberals/Socialists/Progressives lobbing for an Article V convention of the states. He was there with a VIP Press Pass and is in support of the Mount Vernon Assembly meetings working to bring an Article V convention to fruition."

edit: I thought I uploaded a higher resolution picture so that you could see the gesture being made by Ryan Clayton.

Dan asked me to post the text from his original post of the picture on FB



I have a problem, a good problem, and need some good input from some of the best people I know in the political realm. That means you.....my friends.

Though we didn't get the turnout we had hoped for at Friday's Constitutional Convention protest we were still blessed to walk away with the picture below.

My question is, what do I do with it and how best to do it.


The guy in the middle (giving us the finger) came out of the elevator with some Delegates from an area that we could not get access to - THINK ABOUT THAT FOR A MOMENT - then he engaged us and wanted a picture with us, sent it to himself, but failed to delete it from my phone - to bad for him - and then he turned into an ass.

Lynette found out he is "Ryan Clayton and is the Exec. Director of WOLFPac, The Young Turks. They are Liberals/Socialists/Progressives lobbing for an Article V convention of the states.

Here is the BIG Question.......WHY would Sen. David Long allow Socialist/Communist leaning Democrats to be part of the Delegation discussing an Article V, or even allow a guy like Ryan Clayton in the chamber with them when we couldn't even get close. I know why and I'm sure you do to.

I think it should be sent to every Indiana State legeslator, to the Press, and especially to Glenn Beck via The Blaze with a short statement. It should be sent while it is still fresh.

Your input and ideas are appreciated!

Okay, I had to decrease the quality a bit, but did get it to finally load larger as an attachment.

What do you think he did with this picture that he sent from Dan's phone to his own?

Here's an article that gives a bit of a taste of this meeting:

Article V = Death of the Constitution. Worst idea imaginable

Article V = Death of the Constitution. Worst idea imaginable

I dont know. Doing nothing has done a pretty good job to kill the Constitution.

George Soros groups back amending the Constitution, any liberty people who support the so called 'Article V' are pawns in a larger game. In my opinion. But, they won't figure it out until it's to late. Just like when they called a convention to amend the Articles of Confederation, and threw the whole thing out!:p

But we never learn, do we?:(

I don't think it hurts to be prepared. The US constitution however is a special document, one of the very few that's supposed to protect the individual over the many. Even though it's meaning has faded a bit, it's still the best of it's kind. The people who want this convention do not agree with this, they want a European style constitution that has benefits and 'protections' for all. They are at least in part offensive to the second amendment. etc.

I am not sure how a con-con actually proceeds and what it takes to control it. At the moment with an economic crisis and with; constitutionalists, libertarians in a minority I don't see how the constitution could end up any better.

No comment on Ryan giving the finger? Is he going to try to make it look like something other than it is? What's the attitude of one on the left?

Long, who said he would like to see more Democrats (http://www.mysanantonio.com/?controllerName=search&action=search&channel=news&search=1&inlineLink=1&query=%22Democrats%22) join his push for a constitutional convention
Lol, what else do we need to hear? They will Mr. Long, as soon as they realize that it's a way to get rid of that pesky Bill of Rights. Some of them already do, more on the way. Con-Con is the stupidest idea in modern history. This generation is NOT smarter than the founders, Ron Paul and Tom Woods will not be invited, and even they are, they will be in the extreme minority with most of their views. Anyone who has attended a political convention knows the madness that will ensue.

Ryan Clayton's tie to Wolf-PAC and Young Turks and it's aims for an Article V convention.

You have fallen into the establishment's trap. You sound like the people begging for action on global warming or gun control because 'doing nothing' is incomprehensible.
