I think we need a rump national convention along the lines of what the RP supporters in Louisiana did. It is obvious that our "democratic process" has been thoroughly rigged. And, based on the media malfeasance and manipulation in the current electoral cycle (as well as blatant vote fraud, polling fraud, etc., etc.) Ron Paul has a right to declare this neocon-twisted Republican nomination process null & void. I think he would receive the backing of a vast majority of the military if he declared a rump national convention!
We all know that when people hear RP's message the majority of them are drawn to it and wind up supporting it. Only party hacks seem not to go for the message, because they are the ones who will be replaced. People have been denied the right to hear his message, the right to vote for him, blatantly false information regarding his level of popularity--you name it! That having been said, it is my opinion that this election cycle has been thoroughly tainted by the MSM, and that we need Congressional hearings and a rump national convention. To do so, we will need this petition to get at least 20-30,000 signatures as one bullet in the chamber of any such effort--preferably 100,000 sigantures-- (currently at app. 6550 signatures right now): "A Petition for Fair and Equal Treatment in the Media of Dr. Ron Paul's Presidential Election Campaign": http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/487443841 Last edited by SteveMartin; 02-19-2008 at 06:21 AM. |

A rump national convention would signal the end for the GOP as a valid party - so maybe just keeping the threat out there will help.
Either way I'm in. |

Can someone please tell me how exactly are we going to get the military to stand with us? I know a lot of them do but stupid UCMJ is kind of a roadblock. Are they going to get orders or are they going to stand independently? Units can't act on their own they must have orders. If they start acting on their own it could get VERY ugly.

Now, I am only suggesting "backed by the military" in the sense that we are allowed to peaceably assemble and conduct our business with their assistance and protection. We would likely need it.
No one is suggesting a military coup here... |

If this could be tied in with the March on Washington, it might present a very strong message. A lot of coordination and pre planning would have to be put into this. Maybe this is the answer to what to call the "march/protest"? Signatures for the petition could be taken the day of the event and delivered to the appropriate place(s).
Just thinking and throwing the spaghetti against the wall and seeing what sticks....? I do like the concept Steve.

LT,
Thanks! Yep...we will need to get some stuff going soon if we are going to plan it right and have it be successful. Who else is on board? We can use all the people who want to help on a planning committee...starting with conference calls? |

There's lots of folks who are yet to chime in w/ their idea's, so let's keep formulating idea's etc...it can only be made to be better.
I think Torchbearer will have some first hand experience and new idea's to throw at this, because he's involved in the first Rump Convention at the state level. Integrating the petition, both online and actual handwritten signatures and delivered by each and everyone of us involved in the "march" is a definite statement. Keep thinkin'!
