Perry wasn't there. I did see somewhere that he was in LA, so he might have been pushing a stealth organization (as Romney was in LA, as well, but not at the convention.) However, Perry didn't speak at the convention itself unless there was a really last minute change.. but his folks were organized and much 'slicker' than ours, with matching, brand new t shirts and professional posted signs, all matching, etc. Our guys were sort of a hodge podge, home spun lot. Much more authentic grass roots.

They were probably saying they only saw about 10 Perry folks, but it was more like 15 stayed out in the lobby area. From the votes, clearly there were more supporters in the meeting rooms.
 
The video at the beginning of this thread shows the second march of the day for our crowd through the GOP convention. That video was of RP's walk to his 11am speech before the Republican Liberty Caucus (us). This was not his initial arrival, and that is why you can see so many supporters in front of him as he walks. I was actually caught off guard while eating a sandwich when he came my way. (I dropped the sandwich, grabbed my sign and found myself chanting "End the Fed" before I even knew what was going on.)

Our first march took place right after RP got to the hotel around 8-ish. A crowd of several hundred people lined both sides of the street in front of the JW Marriot. RP zoomed right in because he was a bit late for his breakfast speech, and for a second, many of us were left in doubt as to what should be done next. All of a sudden, everyone just started marching through the hotel. While there were fewer people in the first march than in the second (it being earlier, with many people not having arrived yet) the impact was huge because a) no one had really gone in the hotel yet, so the establishment Republicans didn't know what they were in for, and b) we all came in as a group at one time, following Dr. Paul through the hotel lobby all the way up three stories chanting and screaming Liberty's slogans.

Here's a link to us waiting outside the hotel before Dr. Paul's arrival:

I also found a video of the first march:

I'd also like to say how appreciative I am for how helpful local RP organizers were in coordinating everything. Their class and genuine dedication is beyond words. We fought back yesterday, and that was obvious both to us and the establishment. Real revolutionary stuff.

End the Fed!!!
