MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT: Lawyers for Ron Paul Lawsuit NOTE: Having the lawsuit not up 4 debate

[Bryan]

There has been a lot of discussion and concern here recently about negativity towards other peoples ideas and projects. It should be noted however that the forum guidelines allow for simple ways to advert issues- the easy way is to take advantage of this forum guideline:

http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=22

+ Off-topic posts - Posts that do not relate to the threads intent are subject to being deleted.

Thus all that is needed is in your original post to add a comment such as "This is a Q&A and planning thread, the idea is not open for debate". It then makes it clear that any debating or criticism of the idea is off-topic and subject to being deleted (as flagged by the topic starter).

This isn't to say that someone else couldn't start another thread providing constructive criticism of the idea, but this should likely be done in "Hot Topics" and should not violate the guideline:

+ If you are to be critical of another users ideas or message please do so in a respectful manner. It is possible to discuss your points as to why you feel the way you do, ideally you should include alternate suggestions or acknowledge you have none.

The starter of the critical thread can post a link to their thread in the original but the overall net effect is that the people working on the project don't have to wade though a mess of other peoples criticism.

Please bare in mind the following guideline however:

+ No promoting of campaign tactics or other activity that grossly counter the morals or ethics of Dr. Paul.

Ideas that violate this will be deleted, so this isn't an open, free rein of craziness either.


Thanks, hope this pointer helps out. It pays to read the forum guidelines!

There was a conference call Thursday evening @ 10pm EST. This call was recorded and I have the link below. Two major announcements were disclosed, one being a update on the lawsuit and the other one I'll let you be surprised by listening.

Not only did I listen, but participated with a question. I'm identified as Ron from PA. I'm sure one of your NON lazy ass friends will sum it up for you.

Not everyone has time, the internet connection, etc. so it would be awfully polite/convenient to put it at the top of the thread for those who are on the fly.

Well, you're not alone. Lot of you lazy ass "fake" Ron Paul supporters are slowly coming out of the closet on this forum.

You're basing someone's level of support of Ron Paul by whether or not they're willing to listen to a one hour conference call?

Are you really calling someone with 23,000 posts and who registered in 2007 a "fake" supporter? Just because of that comment, I'm not going to give the slightest damn about your link.

[Eric39]

BULL$#@!! Now you're just being an $#@! to everyone. Just because you don't want to/have the time to listen to the whole thing says absolutely nothing about whether you're a fake/real liberty supporter... because it's not about Ron Paul. Why do you have to be one of those guys that makes the inside of the movement hostile? It's BS, stop it.

I'm listening to it now, looks like it's a good hour, I'll sum it up for everyone else.

Just one of many bases.

[LostNFoundNTx]

Hopefully RDM's participation in this thread is not a reflection on the seriousness/quality of the lawsuit(s).

[Britannia]

I was hoping for a summary as I can't listen to it 'til later

[Eric39]

I want to remind everyone here there is a reputation button for people like this.

[Ender]

Good grief.

On most all forums I visit, it is not only considered good manners to sum up, it is required.

[Legend1104]

The major announcement is that the lawyers for Ron Paul are claiming they are going to unofficially take over the Ron Paul campaign with the intention to strip Romney of his delegates and nominate Ron Paul. There now stop fighting.

[Nubraskan]

Noted.

The movement operates more effectively when we don't commit 10,000 man-hours to listening to a call that can be summed up in a few sentences.

This...SMH.

[ClydeCoulter]

Basis ?

[ChristopherShelley]

Ok, so can anyone provide some insight into this announcement? How viable is this?

And while I appreciate the op's passion, we need to help forward info. Expediency = productivity.

And thank you for the post. Still listening.

I just heard this, too. Apparently they are saying the campaign has no standing to negotiate on behalf of their clients (delegates) and they are forming an Executive Committee to deal with just that outside of the lawsuit itself.

Edit: Now going into Benton signing the letter giving the RNC permission to violate Rule 11 and Wead's doubts about Ron's success. I think the argument is the campaign is acting in bad faith on the delegates' behalf. They seem to be attempting to empower the delegates outside the campaign's directives. Interesting tack to take.

Edit: Now accusing the Romney campaign of election fraud & committing criminal acts; giving a laundry list of abuses.

[ChristopherShelley]

This is amazing stuff. Only 20 min in.

[economics102]

I'm sure one of your NON lazy ass friends will sum it up for you.

What the heck is wrong with you?

-rep

[CPUd]

They just accused the Romney campaign of being a criminal organization, and said Mitt is not the lesser of 2 evils, he is evil. He also says when the judge renders a positive decision, mitt will have 0 delegates.

[ClydeCoulter]

Is this for real? Are Ron's delegates getting on board this?

[jay_dub]

They are claiming to have affidavits from over 100 delegates.

Thank you!

[CPUd]

By the time they go into court, the evidence will be 'insurmountable'.

He also made clear that they will fight on behalf of any delegate, even a santorum-bound one who wants to vote for romney.
