    Don't get sick. Learn to accept the placement of certain brick walls. You can't go thru them, you must go around. I am of the belief they will try to pull something at the convention. RP supports need to have a fall-back plan. A scorched-earth like plan where they do something to disrupt or shutdown the proceedings.

    As long as they have the necessary signatures and paperwork filed.....it's allowed....unfortunately.

    Agree...scorched earth. Burn the Party to the ground (figuratively, not literally!) if they pull some crap at the convention. A dead Republican Party is just as good to us as one were we take over.

    we all obey the rules or no one does!

    I would just say, if the rnc doesn't follow the Republican party rule #11 then national delegates in places like nevada and massachusetts shouldn't follow the rules and vote bound. Even if rule #38 isn't allowed, vote for Paul!

    Welcome, Romney folks, join us in the Oklahoma or Arizona threads, if you like!

    That the Republican Party is a "private" organization with its own rules doesn't permit it to defraud the public -- not even if that public is its own members. People have joined the Republican Party and made monetary donations on the reasonable presumption that the RNC would follow its own rules IT HAS ADVERTISED TO THE PUBLIC. The damages are actual and the fraud deliberate. Triple damages are due to all who have contributed to Republican candidates for President and the RNC is liable.

    Another thing, the rule 11 is not just something that is there for any reason.
    The hole existence of this rule, is because there are some important principles that the Republican Party has, and need to protect, just read the Preamble of the Rules of the
    Rep. Party
    "PREAMBLE- BE IT RESOLVED, That the Republican Party is the party of the open door. Ours is the party of liberty, the party of equality, of opportunity for all,
    and favoritism for none."

    Ron Paul Campaign Statement Concerning RNC Rule 11


    “Chairman Priebus has always treated Dr. Paul and our team with respect, and we appreciate his leadership.” – Jesse Benton

    LAKE JACKSON, Texas – Responding to complaints that the Republican National Committee has violated Rule 11 by setting up RNC Victory Operations while Dr. Paul still seeks the nomination, the Ron Paul 2012 Presidential campaign issued the following statement.

    Below please find comments from National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton:

    “In April, the RNC asked our campaign for our blessing to begin assembling the Victory organization Republicans will require to guarantee a win in the fall. Building such an operation is no small undertaking, and our Party needed to build in a few months what the incumbent president has been building for four years.

    “The RNC offered to set up a joint fundraising committee with the Paul campaign and were very clear that if Dr. Paul became the nominee, the Victory Operation would be behind him 100 percent. They also were clear that they would hold off if our campaign objected. I gave my full consent for the RNC to move forward.

    “Chairman Priebus has always treated Dr. Paul and our team with respect, and we appreciate his leadership. He has been an outstanding chairman and has our full confidence.”

    If this is true then we should have no problems in Tampa.

    Wow, 15,175 views of this thread ...in only 3 days. Something must be touching a nerve here...

    Maybe Mitt is about to announce that he's giving up on the GOP due to low delegate counts and may
    run as a 3rd party candidate! Since the MSM seems to like him, there's even a tiny chance he'll win.

    Ron Paul is pulling ahead as a result of this thread! Thousands of rule-following activists are
    now becoming involved and getting elected. They are determined to save the GOP from
    total its own self-corruption so America can be saved. Thank you Ron Paul and your Paulbot army.

    I don't have an opinion one way or another, I was just reposting what the campaign said (its on their press release page) in response to all this.

    Talk about Romney "being disqualified" is ridiculous.

    Let's hope ... I personally, wouldn't allow Romney or Obama to clean my house ... I would be terrified for either of those "things" , to have access to any of my personal belongings.

    States:

    "(a)
    The Republican National Committee shall
    not, without the prior written and filed approval of all
    members of the Republican National Committee from
    the state involved, contribute money or in-kind aid to
    any candidate for any public or party office except the
    nominee of the Republican Party or a candidate who is
    unopposed in the Republican primary after the filing
    deadline for that office."

    But what everyone seems to be overlooking and is the most important part of the law is under part (b).

    "(b)
    ... No person nominated in violation of
    this rule shall be recognized by the Republican National
    Committee as the nominee of the Republican Party
    from that state."

    Meaning any state where Romney and the RNC have worked together, without the written and filed prior approval of ALL GOP State Committee members of that state, IS INVALID. He cannot be recognized by the RNC as the nominee of those states.


    ===============================================

    After reading over this again several times I am certain that the final sentence includes the entire Rule, not just clause (b) meaning it's the punishment for the violation of the entire rule. to Summarize.

    The RNC can't

    contribute money or in-kind aid to any
    candidate for any public or party office

    Unless it has-

    prior written and filed approval of all members of the
    Republican National Committee from the state involved

    Exceptions include:

    the nominee of the Republican Party,

    (NOT ROMNEY)

    a candidate who is unopposed in the Republican primary,

    (NOT ROMNEY)

    Also,

    "The RNC will not recognize any state GOP bylaws that allow,

    persons who have participated or are participating in
    the selection of any nominee of a party
    other than the Republican Party

    RESOLVED:

    No person nominated in violation of this rule shall be recognized
    by the Republican National Committee as the nominee
    of the Republican Party from that state."

    ================================================== =================

    Proof at romney's website at the bottom here:https://www.mittromney.com/donate

    Or Screenshot if they try to hide it:

    As much as I'd LOVE to agree with you, the key words here are:

    No person nominated in violation of
    this rule shall be recognized by the Republican National
    Committee as the nominee of the Republican Party
    from that state.
    IF (and that's a BIG if ) rule 11 is actually in violation, the worst that would happen is Idaho, Massachusetts, Oklahoma and Vermont can't nominate Mitt Romney as their candidate from the floor at the RNC. This essentially only takes 92 delegates away from Mitt. It DOES NOT invalidate him from the party as a whole.
    "The reality is that politics involves itself with us whether we like it or not. We can bury our heads in the sand and hope that things don't get too bad, or we can fight back when government treats us as its servant rather than its master." -Ron Paul July 5, 2005

    So after this rule breaking occured Ron Paul just stops active campaigning? hmmmm
