while that is true Wouldn't it be great to see Texas officially support McCain at the RNC.... while everyone is holding up Ron Paul signs?? plus, maybe some social studies nut can find a loopwhole about motioning to suspend the rules at the texas state convention. The point is to stay...

So my thoughts are we can start a thread where we build a structure organized by County, then Senatorial District, then Precinct That ppl can fill in. The question is - do we want to do this so broadly? We know the other party watches this thread. We know all of us are going to attend the...

Harris County District 13 Precinct 34 :: 5 of 5 Delegates go to Paul

Harris County District 13 Precinct 34 :: 5 of 5 Delegates go to Paul

Texas polls the only important number is that mccain is polling above 50% in each one. If he gets above 50%, he gets all the delegates.

Trademark Issues It doesn't matter when they file. Ron Paul has been using his name in the national public domain since before 2008 and therefore establishes a prior claim. Even if the the lobbying firm trademark went through, they would not be able to prevent Ron Paul or Ron Paul supporters...

and then some haha, i think i just talked myself out of investing in breakthematrix. Wish I had gotten in on some platinum commodities when I first heard about the rolling blackouts in South Africa. Would have doubled my investment in 3 weeks.

The problem I have with break the matrix is that there is no existing media company that they're trying to take nationally through an IPO. Instead they are starting from scratch and will waste lots of $. I'd rather them structure it as a LLP with investment money coming from interested Ron...

best thought on the thread btw, i like june 21 cause a) college kids are out of school b) its on a saturday so 9-5ers can fly up on friday, fly home on sunday c) it has a constitutional foothold that can be spun into a "constitution day" d) it'll be sunny.

Threshold Hawks, If a candidate gets 50%, they get all the delegates. If a candidate gets above 20%, they get most of the delegates and the next guy gets some. If no candidates get above 20%, the top 3 split the delegates somehow. The takeaway is that McCain will get above 20% and...

I'm going to assume McCain will take more than 20% and that Huckabee will get more votes than Ron Paul, which means RP won't get any initial delegates. The strategies I've discussed rely upon a brokered convention at the RNC and capitalize on filling the "actual person who votes" slot with a...

answers Gotcats - 1) If you have a majority of attendees that you know to be RP supporters (takes effort, planning, coordination), then go ahead and declare your support - you've won the vote anyway. If you do not have the vote in the bag, then you may want to consider presenting your slate...

McCain in Texas McCain loves war. Texans love war. What can ya do? Also, McCain is heir apparent to Bush when it comes to all policies, so most all Bushies will vote McCain. Although, I did hear some anti-paul pro-war neo's mumbling about how they'd rather see Hillary as president over...

I heard an interesting strategy at the Lake Jackson Ron Paul rally yesterday: there's a great opportunity to do well in the Texas delegate election. The more inevitable McCain becomes, the less voter participation in the delegate election will be. Which means more opportunity for RP slates to...

Washington Strategy As far as I can tell, the winning Washington theory implies that RP supporters represented themselves as uncommitted so they could go to the state convention as covert RP voters. I heard an interesting strategy at the Texas Ron Paul rally yesterday: there's a great...
