GREENVILLE SC TEA PARTY RALLY BEFORE THE 1st PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

[Razmear]

I'm pasting this for Christ Lawton, who is organizing this event.
(sorry for being to lazy to de-cap the subject line)
This is a RON PAUL event, even if you disagree with some of the speakers show up and hang out anyways.
From my understanding, if they sell so many tickets, the banquet hall becomes free and they can use it for a post debate reception for whomever might stop by (hint).
This is a paste from their facebook page:



We will have numerous speakers from the liberty movement.

April 8, 2011 -- South Carolina Republican Party Chairman Karen Floyd today announced at least five candidates are expected to participate in the SCGOP – Fox News First in the South ...Presidential Primary Debate, taking place on May 5 in Greenville, South Carolina.

Currently expected to participate, in alphabetical order, are:

Newt Gingrich, former Speaker of the U.S. House

Ron Paul, U.S. Representative from Texas

Tim Pawlenty, former governor of Minnesota

Buddy Roemer, former governor of Louisiana

Rick Santorum, former U.S. Senator from Pennsylvania

“We are thrilled by the overwhelming interest we have seen so far in this debate,” Floyd said. “The road to the White House travels through South Carolina, as our Republican electorate has selected every eventual nominee since our primary’s inception in 1980. We are looking forward to our debate as the official kickoff for the presidential primary season.”

I think you need to clean up that post a bit...

 

[sailingaway]

Is Gary Johnson speaking? Because if he is, people should be able to know that in advance, because the RON PAUL people there will be taken as GJ supporters by media, or indifferent between the two, if that happens, and they won't be a block of Ron Paul supporters, only.

It looks like a lot of work went into the event, though.

cleaned it up a bit, didn't realize I caught all that extra junk

If you do show up, remember to wear a Ron Paul shirt or take a sign.

If Gary Johnson is speaking, he is doing so only as a speaker just like all the other speakers.
This is a Ron Paul event.

 

[muzzled dogg]

damn sounds fun

 

[nobody's_hero]

If you do show up, remember to wear a Ron Paul shirt or take a sign.

Wear it under a Romney shirt and then on command every Ron Paulian removes the over-shirt to reveal a sea of Ron Paul supporters in the crowd.
