    Roger Villere Elected RNC Vice Chairman

    Roger Villere has been elected as Vice Chairman of the Republican National Committee.

    Villere, who also serves as Chairman of the Republican Party of Louisiana, was elected on Friday in Tampa, Florida. Villere replaces Alec Poitevint of Georgia, who is retiring after successfully organizing the 2012 Republican National Convention.

    "I look forward to serving Republican voters in this new capacity and helping to grow the Party and win elections across America," Villere said. "Our focus for the next two months is to replace Barack Obama and save our country and way of life," he said.

    Villere served as a member of the Rules Committee for the national convention in Tampa. His tenure as chairman in Louisiana has included Republican takeovers of all seven statewide offices including Governor, and gaining GOP majorities in the Louisiana Senate, House, BESE and PSC.

    OK, we really NEED to bring a lawsuit now. He DIRECTED those private security when they injured duly elected officials without cause. This is obscene. They are all being rewarded.

    Seriously. They are corrupt, disgusting, lying, cheating, thieves. This kind of practice has been going on throughout human history, for far longer than the Republican party has even existed. You don't fix it from the inside.

    Just like you don't join the mafia to reform them. You don't don a brown shirt to 'make a difference'.

    If we ever, ever had a chance to do it, it was with Ron Paul. And we certainly made them rear their head and expose themselves as they cheated us. But even then, only we saw it, and it was politely pushed under the rug and ignored by the mainstream media, which is just as corrupt and owned as the GOP is.

    If you want to see one of our own as vice chair then it will require people running for committee seats in their own locale. If none of us run, then expect to continue to see people we do not agree with maintain power.

    A simple majority in your county and you are sending one of our own to the state committee. A simple majority at the state committee and we are sending one of our own to the RNC. A simple majority in the RNC and one of our own is the national chair.

    It only takes a relatively small number of liberty activists running for committee seats in their own hometown and we can control the entire leadership in a few years.

    Not if they just ignore those liberty activist, and seat their own. As they have proven they will do. Working within gained nothing from what I can see. What did it get us that is actually a step forward?

    Well, except that the new rules means national can just kick out people elected at the state level, don't they?

    It proved once and for all that working within such a corrupt system is a fool's errand?
    That's a step forward.
    Perhaps now we can focus on a new plan.

    I really, really, really don't understand the logic that drives these decisions. I'm trying to think of this without any Paul bias.

    The only part of the Republican Party that has grown over the past few years is the Tea Party and the Ron Paul people. WHY WOULD YOU ALIENATE THEM? It makes no sense whatsoever. They've put themselves into a very dangerous position if Romney should happen to lose.

    But what if it 'whatever it takes' takes more than just trying to join and overtake the GOP?

    Are you referring to the new rule 16? What I saw that pertains to delegates to the RNC (convention) not the RNC (committee).

    If not then link to it, and I will take a look at the wording.

    I'm sure they'll have some private meeting later on this year to fix that.

    It's a display of power. It's the kind of action that speaks directly to us, and only us. Nobody outside our bubble knows or cares who Villere even is. You couldn't even explain this to someone -- at best you'll get a shrug out of them.

    But to us? It's a slap in the face and a raw display of power. That's the message. Spitting on your opponent after you beat them into submission.

    I realize in times like these it is tempting to abandon what we have accomplished. But there is no other path. Remember what Harvey Dent says, "The night is darkest just before the dawn, but the dawn is coming."

    Look at the vote totals. Ron Paul received less than Rick Santorum, and spent way more than Rick Santorum in two election cycles. I think the "10" understand Ron Paul's numbers are small, because the people really are brainwashed zombies and will do what they hear from their tvs and radios. When you have the propaganda media on your side, along with a campaign that wasn't serious about winning, you are destined to have supporters steamrolled by the powers that be with very little being said. If a campaign doesn't stand up and speak out against abuse against its own supporters, there's not much of a movement to get behind there. We need to refocus, and until we can find a Ross Perot willing to spend tons of his own money, we won't be able to upset the apple cart very much.

    What have we accomplished? It's an honest question. I mean, they have shown they will change/ignore their own rules, so what exactly have we gained or accomplished?

    As it stands now, there is nothing they can do to stop you from running for committee person in your precinct. The more liberty-minded people that we have in committee (and for that matter other local offices as well) the more our movement will grow. It's a numbers game - that's all.

    My personal opinion is that everyone should run for something. A lot of these local offices require very little time out of your lives to fulfill the requirements of the positions. Some are only a monthly meeting at most.

    No, Louisiana had a two part system the Caucus was open to the public and Ron won in a landslide. That is what sent delegates to state convention. Ron's delegates got 700+ votes there to national, the establishment ones who even actually ran and weren't appointed later, got 200+

    There is NO justification.

    We control several states currently. Spiker is the chair of the Iowa GOP, and I forget the others. This goes beyond the 2012 election, as I believe you are referring to delegates to the convention, not committee men and women at the state and national level. In most states, committee seats are a position that is elected at the polls during the primary election. In most precincts these seats can be won with only a few hundred votes. All it takes is the willingness to knock on every single door in your precinct and ask for their vote. You may even find that the seat is uncontested and you "win" when you apply for the ballot access.
